Outsourcing Testing Services

Our Testing Services
Manual Testing
"Computers shouldn't be unusable. You don't need to know how to work a telephone switch to make a phone call...or how to work a nuclear-power plant to turn on the lights." - Scott McNealy
The benefits of third-party, independent, "fresh eyes and ears" to review and reflect on the QA of your software should not be undervalued. Particularly in the areas of unit testing, usability testing, incremental integration testing, and system and sanity testing, Our experience and thoroughness remain unparalleled.
For example, at Creed InfoTech, our intermediate manual testers have a minimum of 2 - 5 years of testing experience. We readily pre-empt "soft" and "hard" issues related to intuitive interface and functionality within your software. Let our manual testers provide you with an independent, unbiased perspective through our manual testing methodology. Our involvement in your development cycles can help overcome any barriers to customer satisfaction and post-adoption of your software.
We provide you the following software testing services:
 |
Functional testing |
 |
Web testing |
 |
White-box testing |
 |
Usability and accessibility testing |
 |
Performance, stress, and load testing |
 |
Security testing |
 |
Volume testing |
Automate Testing
Like the decision to replace any business process with an automated one, Test Automation, which enables testing through software technology thereby reducing or eliminating ongoing personnel involvement, offers a strong potential for massive cost-saving, among other benefits.
Automated testing refers to software testing
We at Creed InfoTech indulge in all sorts of testing Practices mentioned below:
Compliance testing
Poor compliance testing results in a product that is liable to fail in meeting your business requirements. It is important to define all requirements prior to commencement of the test process and confirm that all tests will comprehensively demonstrate that those requirements have been met.
The benefits of this are apparent where the application under test must meet legislative requirements. Failure to demonstrate this could have serious consequences, such as potential legal action or sanctions.
Functional testing
Functional testing lies at the core of the Software Quality Assurance process. It entails the crucial procedure of testing your software to make sure it functions as expected in practice, as well as the identification of any issues or defects to enable their rectification. Although this is a simple objective, those experienced in software delivery agree that it is often not easily achieved.
Timely and thorough functional testing significantly effects adherence to budgetary and time constraints by highlighting any defects early in the development project.
Load and Stress testing
Today's corporate information systems are required to support thousands of users, multiple application environments and a complex mix of protocols and architecture. Load testing- as it sounds- tests the system when it is “loaded” with many simultaneous users or a large database; its primary purpose is to test the load limits of the system. Stress testing tests the system under these conditions for an extended period of time.
Common issues that result from poor load and stress capabilities include:
What is the cost of downtime to your business?
Do you consider the cost of intangibles such as customer satisfaction and reputation?
Does your application scale with an increase of use and business flow?
Performance Testing
Today's corporate information systems must support thousands of users, multiple application environments and a complex mix of protocols and architecture.
Unpredictable user loads and application complexity put companies at risk for delivering poor service standards. This ultimately impacts business performance.
Usability testing
Poor usability can result in loss of sales, negative branding, and increased support costs, while good usability can significantly increase usage, sales and brand image. According to Forrester Research, usability has become key in design priorities and success metrics, especially with Internet based products and services.
The Quality Assurance services offered by CREEDINFO include a full spectrum of black-box and white-box testing strategies. Our experience with many third-party testing tools and specialty in-house test applications allow us to be more productive through automation.
And, while we have the expertise to create test scripts and use automation tools, our engineers also have the focus, dedication, and QA mind-set that are required to effectively handle the demands of repetitive black box testing.
WE can provide any of our services directly, or we can mentor your in-house staff in these areas.
