Product QA & Testing

Software Quality is one of the most crucial factors determining the success or failure of a business. Faulty software can seriously affect the business in terms of Cost and Efficiency, as there is considerable expenditure of time and money involved in fixing errors which will lead to downtime, frustration – and lost revenue. On the other hand good software can prove to be an asset for the organization and can increase the overall efficiency and productivity of the activity for which it is used.
Our test engineers ensure that a product functions exactly as expected, and more importantly, does nothing that is not expected.

To guarantee the effectiveness and thoroughness of the testing, OmkarSoft QA team uses the most up-to-date technologies.

Types of Testing

Project management and client communication are critical components of any outsourced development project. OmkarSoft uses several mechanisms to ensure that each project is on track, and to make the process open and transparent to the client.

Benefits of Outsourcing Testing

Some of the benefits of outsourcing testing include:

  • Lower cost
  • Greater efficiency
  • Improved time-to-market
  • Focus on core business
  • Enhanced coverage and quality of delivery
  • Skill generation and training
  • Staffing flexibility
  • Technological advancement

Black Box & White Box Testing

  • Black-box (functional) testing
  • Black-box testing implies that the tester only knows the input and the expected outcome but doesn’t how the program works. During this process, the tester does not examine the programming code and does not need any further knowledge of the program other than its specifications. This is the most common and simple type of testing and is often performed externally. Being fairly simple, it has several important advantages:
    The test is unbiased because the developer and the tester are independent from each other.
    The test is done from the user point of view, not that of the developer.
    Test cases can be designed as soon as the specifications are complete.

  • White-box testing
  • White-box testing implies knowledge of the program and familiarity with the code. The data for this testing is carefully chosen and requires more skillful testers.

Automated Testing

We extensively use test automation to increase productivity.Much of the routine can repeatedly tested by the machine, which saves a lot of time and effort.
We encourage the development and QA team to automate testing through the testing life cycle. Our team has extensive experience on these automated testing tools:

Test Automation Tools

Mercury Functional Testing combines Mercury’s functional testing products, Mercury QuickTest Professional (QTP) and Mercury WinRunner®, to deliver a complete solution for functional test, GUI test, and regression test automation with support for practically every software application and environment.
AdventNet QEngine is a complete automated testing tool for functional testing, performance testing, web services testing and regression testing of web applications and web services.
Mercury LoadRunner can be used to automate performance/stress test.

Using Scripts

Our expertise in scripting languages like Perl, Python also enables us to write scripts which can automate testing.

Testing Framework

JUnit is used to automate unit Testing.

Coverage Analysis

BullseyeCoverage is a code coverage analyzer for C++ and C that tells you how much of your source code was tested.

Various tools used to simplify testing and project management includes:

  • CVS for Configuration Management
  • Bugzilla for Bug Tracking
  • Wiki for Knowledge Management
