Software Quality Assurance Services

Software Quality Assurance is an umbrella term we use to refer to the process involved in ensuring quality in software deliverables. These processes incorporate both Software Quality Control (SQC) and Software Testing. Business leaders unanimously agree that quality is important, but understanding how to get there, what processes to implement, what people to engage is often a difficult and eluding decision. EcomNets solution will help you to sift through all the information and turn it into useable knowledge to increase your application development success.

EcomNets provides business stakeholders with information about the quality of the software or application being developed. Through our ITIL-based, industry proven methodologies, EcomNets provides development organizations with an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks of software project or implementation. Our test techniques include, but are not limited to, the process of executing a program or application with the intent of finding errors or other defects. At a minimum our processes provide demonstrated proof of validating and verifying that a software program or application:

• Meets the requirements that guided its design and development,
• Works as expected,
• Can be implemented with the same characteristics, and
• Satisfies the needs of stakeholders.

Our Software Quality Assurance processes can be implemented at any time in the development process. Traditionally most of the test effort occurs after the requirements have been defined and the coding process has been completed.

Develop and improve your overall quality by learning and implementing proper process that fits your organizational needs. Whether you develop for the web, or integrate off the shelf software, your customers deserve your best, and you deserve their trust. This solution will help guide you through creating and maintaining a process that works for you.

This is usually the first test phase that the test organization is responsible for. It is one of the most powerful testing approaches which will significantly reduce the number of defects found in later stages.

Functional tests validate and verify that the developed system behaves according to the client / business specifications. Verifying that each component responds correctly to all conditions that may result from incoming events or data.

Functional testing requires well-formed functional requirements, from which the testers can create definitive test cases.

EcomNets Software Quality Assurance processes have a proven established software testing practice that is focused on uncovering vulnerabilities within the system and determine that the Enterprise’s data and resources are protected from possible intruders.

There are four main focus areas to be considered in security testing (Especially for web sites and applications):

The primary reason for usability testing is to provide relevant and adequate feedback during the development process to ensure that the completed application will actually be easy to use, effective to use and will provide meaningful and valuable information to the user of the application.

Usability testing is coordinated by the test team, however neither developers nor testers should be involved in the actual testing. Testers for usability should be the users themselves.

Load testing is the simplest form of performance testing. A load test is usually conducted to understand the behavior of the system under a specific expected load. This load can be the expected concurrent number of users on the application performing a specific number of transactions within the set duration. This test will give out the response times of all the important business critical transactions. If the database, application server, etc. are also monitored, then this simple test can itself point towards any bottlenecks in the application software.

EcomNets has developed a streamlined process for the evaluation and testing of “Localization” within the standard SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle). Our process validates whether the software application is dynamic enough to use a particular geographic location or country. In testing localization, our testing checks out the quality of the product for not only a particular locale or culture; but also its ability to integrate data inputs from various geo-locating systems or applications. EcomNets services check the quality of translation in localization testing as well as validate the pre-production localized version of the product.

Technology has created the explosion and proliferation of all types of mobile hand-held devices. Further, developers, manufacturers and communications companies have developed applications for these devices which are ubiquitous across the information domain and devices. EcomNets has proven processes and methodologies for the testing and validation of application software developed for hand held mobile devices is tested for its functionality, usability and consistency.
