Dependable Test Delivery
Testing Challenges At face value much testing appears simple and most is relatively simple. Testers and end users can write, run and analyse tests. However there are challenges that are not as tractable and that defeat this approach. Real-time behaviour, reliability, integrity and usability testing are all hard. These may be left out of the test plan as "wait and see" issues. Alternatively a veneer of testing using normal methods may be attempted giving rise to compromise and false confidence.
Agile Tests Agile testing creates its own challenges. Whether embedded within the development team or moving alongside development evaluating their output an Agile Tester must be quick, highly flexible and technically as well as business savy. Adept with tools and at coding an Agile Tester must understand systems and software and be a technical quality advocate within the development sphere. Agile testing demands highly skilled well trained testers.
Technical Tests Technical testing is becoming more and more important. As organisations expose systems to customers and to partners technical testing becomes critical. It is no longer possible to depend upon the patience of the workforce and their strict adherence to procedures to shield weak systems from the spotlight. The uncontrolled nature of the internet makes high fidelity load, resilience and security testing critical; delivering this is a specialist and technically demanding task.
Testing Services Our experience enables us to help with the most difficult of testing challenges. Whether delivering the required testing or assisting and developing established teams we can remove blockages and prevent risk being carried into service. Our innvovative methods and application of tools and technology provide dependable, repeatable and efficient testing solutions where none were visible. Our domains includes non-functional testing, functional test automation, critical function testing and hybrid services such as high volume reliablity testing.
Tools and Automation Our test automation practice goes back to 1998 when we built automation frameworks for distributed real-time systems. We provide expertise in testing, development and automation architectures; the three disciplines that underpin effective automation. Our custom tool experience enables us to develop oracles, simulators, analysis systems and ancillary tools to accelerate testing and reduce the opportunity for error.
