Our software testing and QA services

Unit testing

As part of our software testing and QA services, unit testing involves testing individual components or units of code in isolation. Developers write test cases to ensure that each unit of code behaves as expected.

Integration testing

This focuses on testing interactions between different units or components to ensure they work together correctly. It helps identify issues that might arise when different parts of the software are integrated.

Functional testing

This type of testing involves verifying that the software’s functionality meets the specified requirements. Test cases are designed to cover various use cases and scenarios.

Regression testing

After making changes to the software, regression testing ensures that new code changes don’t negatively impact existing functionalities. It involves re-running previously executed tests.

Performance testing

This is used to assess the system’s performance, scalability, and responsiveness under different conditions, such as high user loads or data volumes.

Security testing

This involves identifying vulnerabilities and potential security risks in the software to ensure that sensitive data is protected.

User Acceptance Testing (UAT)

End users validate the software to ensure it meets their needs and is ready for deployment.

Test automation

Automation tools and scripts are used to execute tests, allowing for faster and more efficient testing processes, especially for repetitive tasks.

Agile testing

In Agile methodologies, testing is integrated into the development process, with frequent iterations and continuous feedback to ensure that the software meets evolving requirements.

Exploratory testing

Testers actively explore the software to discover defects and issues that might not be covered by pre-defined test cases.

Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) Testing

Testing is integrated into the CI/CD pipeline, ensuring that code changes are automatically tested and deployed to production as they are made.

Black box and white box testing

Black box testing focuses on testing the software without knowledge of its internal structure, while white box testing involves examining the internal logic and code structure.

Load testing

The software is subjected to a high load to evaluate its performance and stability under heavy user traffic.

Usability testing

This ensures that the software is user-friendly and intuitive, focusing on user experience and interface design.

Benefits of software testing and QA services

Improved software quality and user satisfaction

This is arguably the most critical benefit as it directly impacts user satisfaction and the overall success of the software product. High-quality software reduces risks, leading to fewer defects and support requests, resulting in happier users.

Reduced costs by detecting issues in an early stage

Cost reduction is a key driver for many organizations. A mature software testing and QA process helps identify and address issues early in the development lifecycle, minimizing the need for expensive rework and maintenance later on.

Faster time to market with a streamlined development cycle

In today’s fast-paced business environment, speed to market is crucial for maintaining a competitive edge. A mature software testing and QA process, particularly when combined with automation, streamlines the development lifecycle, allowing organizations to release software products more quickly while still ensuring high quality and reliability.

Our approach to software testing and QA

Quality assurance is one of the most important parts of the software development lifecycle. Software testing and QA management represents the process of taking your project’s requirements, building a test plan, writing the tests, planning the test activities and capturing the results. Our approach includes 5 levels of QA and software testing management.

01

Level 1

This QA and software test management level assumes there is no tester/QA specialist in the project team and the testing effort is entirely done by developers through cross functional and unit tests.

Since there will be no system testing, in order to minimize the risks and to ensure that particular units of code work as expected, the development team should invest time in unit tests. In this level there is no dedicated QA engineer in the team.

02

Level 2

In order to react quickly to changes and adapt accordingly the test approach, the focus is on exploratory testing. This is a process that allows the tester to respond to each test in a way that should maximize focus on the most relevant risks.

All items from the current iteration are tested based on the exploratory method and only smoke tests are run for the already existing features. In this level there is 1 QA engineer for every 4 developers in a team.

03

Level 3

For this level, the QA specialists in the project team are focused on both exploratory testing for the new features, as well as systematic regression testing for the entire application. Prior to any new release, both functional and non-functional regression tests will be manually executed in order to verify that a code change in the software does not impact the existing functionality of the product.

To create the regression suite, test cases should be created for the most critical important functionalities of the software. In this level there is 1 QA engineer for every 3 developers in a team.

04

Level 4

At the beginning of each iteration, elaborated test cases are created for each new feature which will be developed. Furthermore, the most vital test cases will be included in the regression suite.

The goal at this level is to evaluate whether the system has complied with all of the outlined requirements and to see that it meets the quality standards. This applies not only for regression but also to the functionalities developed in the current iteration. This test management level assumes 1 QA engineer for every 2 developers in a team.

05

Level 5

This level is an addition to either level 2 or 3, and it is implemented by automating the regression suite and maintaining it each iteration. This will enhance the testing process by reducing the manual testing hours.

This level is focused on functional and regression testing based on elaborated test cases, executed in planned test sessions during the iteration. This test management level assumes 2 QA engineer for every 2-3 developers in a team.

  • “Also very valuable is the fact that NetRom has a whole network of IT people. Internally we work with a small group, but you can go to NetRom with all kinds of questions such as which technology is best for which application. This has already led to choices that would have turned out differently if we had not consulted with them. Furthermore, in NetRom we have found a partner who unburdens us. All team members work well together. It’s not a separated team working at a distance. ”
