Testing & Quality Assurance

We provide specialist software testing consultancy and test services designed to balance quality, timescales, risk management and test investment.  A combination of testing experience, independence and insight enables our clients to succeed when faced with challenging projects.

Our collaborative methods, efficient techniques, and use of innovative technology allow us to deliver high-quality testing solutions based on:

• Risk Based – testing priorities based on the business impact and likelihood of failure
• Continuous testing - testing throughout the project lifecycle ensures a ‘no-surprises’ end game
• Iterative Delivery – Gain early insight into release stability and facilitate a number of delivery approaches, such as feature based release

Test Review and Health Check
Our Health Check service helps clients assess their test environments, processes and approach. The service is used to determine resource gaps and develop an effective roadmap for improving the test strategy and approach to quality.  A review can take place at any stage of the test programme, rather than just being commissioned at the end as part of a lessons learned or retrospective exercise.

Test Management
We offer cost effective test management services to support both new and existing programmes of work. Our test management consultants lead and manage test projects at a strategic, tactical or implementation level.

Test Automation
We deliver scalable, maintainable automation solutions to fulfil business needs.  We focus on increasing the level of test automation in a cost-effective way by employing best practice, for example, creating reusable functions and separating data from tests.

Performance and Technical Testing
Neglecting performance problems can lead to poor end-user experiences, application outages and increased business costs. Our consultants help reduce this burden by eliciting and refining the system's performance objectives (NFRs) giving the business tangible evaluation criteria, and by defining and executing appropriate technical test plans.

Custom Tool Development
Our specialist testing practitioners have extensive and independent knowledge of the most appropriate test tools.  A key differentiator is our ability to develop custom test harnesses and tools and to employ niche products to meet specific needs.

Compliance and Regulatory Testing
Demonstrating continued adherence to changing regulatory requirements can be costly and time consuming.  We help clients to derive and execute a pragmatic set of tests to measure and assure the appropriate  level of compliance.
