Software test services, when developing a software product, are necessary for achieving a converted contract and specific requirements. Test results show the detected bugs (reactive activity), also helps avoid risks on the project and defects in the product (proactive activity). Software testing services – are the detection of bugs, when QA services are the prevention of bugs.
A through checking of documentation and program on the stage development help reduce risks that defects will appear in a ready product. The error should be detected and eliminated before a product release. Unfixed defects are written down in documentation as Limitations. These limitations, as a rule, are fixed during a little time and users get the patch.
Testing helps count a software quality by means of metrics. Metrics can be different:
- The amount of created/passed/failed tests.
- Some tests that cover the product requirements.
- The number of found/fixed/reopened defects.
Based on these metrics, testers can analyze vulnerabilities in the program, take all the necessary measures for their elimination and prevent their further appearance.
Depending on the software test company’s strategy and its values, testing processes and strategies may vary. Ideally, each company should be interested in the staff development from the quality assurance department. Conduct training, retrospective meetings on the project, staff motivation towards development and compassion help achieving good results by increasing the maturity of the staff. All this is further reflected in the quality of products and customer satisfaction.
