Agile Testing Services

Kualitatem believes in quality and precision in technology and software, and we work to achieve it as an agile testing company. Relying on the modern, sophisticated, and ever-evolving technologies and the expertise of our skilled team, we lead the way in agile testing services.   

This begins at the very start of the project, even before development has started in order to pursue efficiency with agility. Sometimes known as continuous testing, it goes hand in hand with development work and provides an ongoing feedback loop into the development process.

Agile testing has evolved to a level where testers are no longer a separate organizational unit (that is QA department) but they operate as a part of the agile development team. Everyone is responsible for testing, with no dedicated QA engineers. However, there are test specialists who work closely with developers throughout the software development cycle.

In a highly competitive software environment and technology market, the development and testing teams are always on their toes. The companies that work for a competitive edge and quality products simultaneously tend to make sure that the development and testing processes go hand in hand and the issues are addressed as they arise. It requires the developers and testers to work in parallel in order to produce excellent results. 

Some of the benefits include:

• Faster project completion 
• Resolution of bugs and issues as they arise 
• The liberty to add or delete certain features as and when needed 
• Quality product delivered

Agile software testing methodologies are imperative to survive the competition and deliver a product that satisfies the end-user. There are various ways to go about it. Companies either set up their own agile testing teams or outsource the services to a different company. While it may seem feasible to have it managed in-house, it is not at all practical. That’s because the process is tedious and has to be carefully managed. Hence, it is better to outsource these services to reap the full benefits. 

Philosophy

At Kualitatem, we follow a specific set of principles to perform agile testing. Here is a breakdown of our agile testing philosophy:

Progressive testing:

Regular feedback:

We provide constant feedback, which is required to meet the goals of the firm for the product, in addition to reducing the response time of the feedback.

KUALITATEM’S AGILE TESTING MINDSET

The first and foremost requirement is to break away from the principles and working methodologies of traditional software development. And in order to succeed, KTM’s agile testers have acquired the right mindset needed. We’ve summed it up in twelve major principles:

•       Quality Assistance over Quality Assurance
•       Continuous Testing over Testing at the End
•        Team Responsibility for Quality over Tester’s Responsibility
•        Whole Team Approach over Testing Departments and Independent Testing
•        Automated Checking over Manual Regression Testing
•        Technical and API Testing over Just GUI Testing
•        Exploratory Testing over Scripted Testing
•        User Stories and Customer Needs over Requirement Specifications
•        Building the Best Software over Breaking the Software
•        Early Involvement over Late Involvement
•   Short Feedback Loop over Delayed Feedback
•         Preventing Defects over Finding Defects

KUALITATEM’S AGILE TESTING LIFE CYCLE

While being flexible and highly adaptable to changes, Kualitatem’s agile testing will save you a tremendous amount of time and money by determining issues and providing regular feedback on the basis of daily meetings.

The test plan will be written as well as updated for every release (as per the decided scope). Moreover, the life cycle will include the following 5 phases:

1)    Impact assessment: Gathering inputs from stakeholders and users, this will act as a feedback for the next deployment cycle.

2)    Agile Testing Planning: All of your stakeholders will come together to plan the schedule of the testing process, meeting frequency, and deliverables.

3)    Daily Scrums: This will include everyday meetings to catch up on the status of testing and set the goals for the whole day.

4)    Test Agility Review: Weekly review meetings with the stakeholders will be held to review and assess the progress against milestones.

5)    Release Readiness: At this stage, KTM will review whether the features that have been implemented are ready to go live or not.
