Problem Statement

Due to lack of proper reporting mechanism and QA check posts the quality of deliverables were not transparent to business stakeholders. Also, absence of basic QA processes was affecting the overall health of the propject

Challenges

  • Frequent and unplanned release made testing adhoc and inefficient
  • Functional Mobile testing on Android & iOS was taking too much time and slowing down the releases
  • Absence of unit testing and High bug count was leading to multiple iterations of defect fixing and affecting the product health
  • Unplanned and poor quality releases were resulting in UAT release date slippage and eventually delayed production releases and high cost of development

What we did

  • Conducted a detailed analysis of customer's problem areas (discussion with team members, SPOC of the project) to identify key QA processes needed.
  • Introduced release mechanism and framework for unit testing, which reduced the number of initial bug counts and release iterations
  • Understood their existing testing process and identified key areas for introducing Selenium & Appium automation
  • Prepared regression test scripts with selenium to ensure the product stable before launch on production
