Continuous Software Testing Support Through All Development Phases
STS recognizes the essential role of functional testing in software development, aiming to expedite your software's development life cycle and augment the end-user experience. Our custom-tailored processes are guided by a strategic approach, including:
01. Software Requirements Analysis
Our process initiates with a detailed project scope determination. A comprehensive analysis of all project artifacts is conducted, gathering all requirements from business stakeholders and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to ensure a solid foundation for your software development.
02. Test Strategy Formulation
With a clear understanding of the requirements, we formulate a test strategy document encapsulating project details, business requirements, and the testing approach to be employed, streamlining the path towards software quality assurance.
03. Test Environment Setup
We prioritize establishing a test environment that mirrors the real-world product for accurate quality and behavior feedback. This pivotal step ensures the application's consistent performance in testing and production scenarios.
04. Test Case Creation
We concentrate on generating test cases that encompass the project's functional requirements. Our experts guide on writing lucid, efficient test cases for manual testing that can be later integrated into your regression baseline.
05. Test Case Execution
As a feature becomes ready for QA, we execute the test cases against the software, ensuring it aligns with the predetermined requirements and specifications, and upholding software quality standards.
06. Defect Identification & Reporting
While executing our test cases, we utilize our standard defect analysis process to spot and document any faulty behaviors in your product, contributing to improved software reliability.
07. Identification & Prioritization of Business-Impacting Defects
In this phase, we identify and rank defects based on their business impact. The higher the business impact, the higher the priority, ensuring that critical issues are reviewed and resolved promptly, maintaining software performance.
08. Providing Testing metrics
You can count on us for comprehensive testing metrics that measure and track all testing activities throughout the process. With a strong emphasis on communication and traceability, we keep you apprised of your project's status at each stage, enhancing the software testing transparency.
