| What is this?
This service addresses the implementation of functional and
performances testing processes. The service is implemented
using either IBM Rational or HP Mercury platforms. These processes
incorporate the best industrial practices pertaining to functional
and performance testing. The following sections provide an
overview of the activities involved.
Why this?
Functional testing of the developed applications is essential
to ensure the proper implementation of the functionalities
and adherence to specified quality guidelines. A proper functional
testing process facilitates the team in delivering a quality
application. This is essentially a black-box testing using
either IBM Rational or HP Mercury tools depending upon the
customer preferences. Performance testing provides answers
to the questions of whether the application is able to scale
up and perform within expected limits. This also throws up
shortcomings in architecture and design.
Who can benefit out of this?
Both stakeholders and developers are benefited. Stakeholders
get an assurance that the application delivered is of the
prescribed quality and performs as expected. In addition,
the testing effort is automated using the preferred tools.
This would ensure that more tests are performed ensuring adherence
to quality. This reduces the mundane testing tasks thus enabling
the testers to focus on the functionalities and qualities
to be tested.
What are the different models we offer?
Astra Infotech offers the following services with respect
to Analysis and design:
- Training: Functional and performance testing is a three
day’s program each imparting the basics of functional
and performance testing using either IBM Rational or HP
Mercury tools.
- Consulting: This service facilitates the testers in evolving
a process for testing and implementing the process. Our
consultants work along with the system analysts and testers
in establishing the appropriate process and implement the
same.
- Quickstart: This is a combination of training and consulting.
The methodology is imparted in a short time with the hands-on
being done on the project itself. This provides the shortest
path to implement the methodology, ideally suited for small
teams and projects.
What is the normal working model?
- Trainings are imparted onsite with our trainers directly
interacting with the project team.
- Consulting is either done wholly onsite or using an onsite-offshore
model. Part of the documentation activities could be done
offshore. This offers cost effective model for the customers.
