Testing Objectives We Follow
Beyond testers, strategic analysts and problem solvers
Prevent defects
by evaluating project requirements, user stories, and design at an early stage
Find defects and failures
to ensure the highest product quality and seamless performance
Verify that the test object is complete
and validate if it works as the users and stakeholders expect
Build confidence
in the quality of project deliverables
Verify the solution
for compliance with specified requirements
Provide sufficient information
to stakeholders, enabling them to make informed decisions about the future of the product
How Testing Contributes to the Success of Your Product
Our QA team is ready to share its vast experience and support your project with industry best practices
Identify inconsistencies in requirements
To eliminate the development of incorrect features and save your resources, testers examine requirements and refine the user story to catch inconsistencies early.
Minimize design issues
QA specialists communicate with system designers to minimize fundamental design issues. Their feedback helps designers and developers make informed adjustments before the system is completed and deployed.
Minimize risk of post-release bugs
Testers validate the software before release to detect issues that might have been missed. So, we deliver a high-quality product that meets your specific needs.
Test Types We Perform
We cover every aspect to ensure bug-free system operation
Smoke testing
The very first step is to make sure that the most important features function correctly. Then we can proceed to further testing.
User interface testing
We test the user interface functionality to verify that it is complete and meets the requirements.
Requirements-based testing
We design a precise set of test cases based on the software requirements that we analyze and validate.
Exploratory testing
Using cognitive thinking and a clear understanding of software specifics and end-user behavior, we extend the test coverage beyond the predefined test suite.
System testing
We perform functional system testing for all integrated components to assess how their behavior complies with the specification. Also, we focus on conducting non-functional testing including:
- internationalization/localization;
- compatibility;
- performance.
Regression testing
We assure the changes made to the system haven’t affected its flawlessly working functionality.
Step-by-step QA Process at HQSoftware
At HQSoftware, we take pride in driving quality across the entire software development life cycle
-
Step 1. Requirement analysis
We thoroughly review project requirements, specifications, and documentation to get a clear picture of what should be implemented in the software solution. We also analyze requirements for inconsistencies and inaccuracies to make sure we clearly understand your needs.
-
Step 2. Test planning
We assess test scope and offer the most suitable testing environments, team composition, and methodologies. After that, we create a detailed test plan to achieve the required quality goals.
-
Step 3. Test design
In this step, our QA engineers create test cases and scenarios as well as prepare test data, checklists, scripts, and necessary tools based on the project requirements.
-
Step 4. Test execution
The step where actual testing takes place, either manually or with specific tools. We model real-life scenarios and interact with software to identify errors or deviations from expected behavior.
-
Step 5. Defect reporting and tracking
All issues detected during testing are recorded in detail with steps to fix them. The development team then works to address the reported issues.
-
Step 6. Test closure
Once testing is complete and defects have been addressed, our QA engineers summarize the testing process, results, and any remaining open issues. This report provides you with insights into the software’s readiness for release.
