Every successful software company has a strong software QA department, with well-documented policies and procedures. Most importantly, you need to maintain a committment to QA, especially when building complex programs for widespread use.
Millions of dollars each year are spent overcoming faulty, defect-ridden software. You cannot afford NOT to have strong QA. We provide the following QA services:
- Process and procedures
How should programmers hand off software to be tested? What happens when a defect is found? What's the process for beta release? What about final release?
The answers to these questions help shape the process that you use to develop your software. We will help you map out and implement a plan for all of your development team - including both developers and testers - to follow.
- Defect-tracking
Every software development team must have a tool to document and communicate product defects. These tools can either be custom-built or bought off-the-shelf. Whichever tool you choose, you need to make sure that it has all of the functionality you need. For example, does it email the appropriate developer when a new defect is recorded?
We can help determine the appropriate tool for your organization.
- Automated testing
Countless hours are often spent performing repetitive tests. An automated testing tool can help to reduce the amount of time spent on these tests, so your testers can focus on new functionality.
There are a number of automated testing tools on the market; we can help choose and implement the right tool.
- Hiring
All of the best processes and tools will not help very much unless you have the right personnel. We have interviewed thousands of QA engineers and testers over the last ten years, and can match up the appropriate experience with your company's needs.
These are just some of the QA services we offer. If you are looking for regulatory quality assurance for the biotechnology industry, click here. Or, contact us for more information.
