Functionality testing
Functionality Testing involves validating that an application conforms to its specifications and correctly performs all its required functions. It entails a series of tests which perform a feature-by-feature validation of behavior, using a wide range of normal and erroneous input data.

Systems Integration testing
Systems Integration Testing is conducted on a complete, integrated system to validate the system's compliance with its specified requirements. During system testing, one focuses solely on the outputs generated in response to inputs provided and execution conditions, rather than verifying the internal structure of the program/ system.

User Acceptance testing
User Acceptance Testing checks the system against the "Requirements" and validates that system has delivered what was initially requested. The client/ end users typically performance User Acceptance Testing.

Usability testing
Usability Testing is "testing the software from a user's point of view." Essentially it means testing software to prove/ ensure that it is 'user-friendly', as distinct from testing the functionality of the software.

Globalization testing
The goal of globalization testing is to check if the application is ready for global release. It involves checking the functionality of the product with any of the culture/ locale settings using every type of international input possible.

Compatibility testing
Compatibility testing verifies that an application looks and functions the same across all supported hardware and software configurations. The variables could include Web browsers, Operating systems, processor types, network connections, etc.

Disaster Recovery testing
Disaster recovery testing is designed to see whether a system can be recovered successfully in an alternate environment and can be used to restart the business processes without loss of information. A sound disaster recovery plan is essential to protect the well being of an organization.

Performance benchmarking
This is conducted to evaluate the system's ability to meet the required performance levels. It is non-functional in nature and usually requires the usage of special tools and hardware to simulate production-like environments.

[ TOP ]

Availability Testing
This tries to determine whether the application meets its operational availability requirements. It also tries to determine the stability of the application and the expected downtime of the deployed application.

[ TOP ]

Reliability Testing
Reliability testing helps define the failure rate of the product and tries to measure how long a system can be expected to operate before it fails due to hardware overload, memory leakage, etc.

[ TOP ]

Security assessment
Security Testing is conducted to test the vulnerability of a system/ facility to unintended and/ or unauthorized users and processes and to test the restrictions applicable to different functions of the system/ facility. Security testing highlights the inadequacies/ deficiencies due to non-adherence of security processes.

Automated Regression testing
Regression test is a consistent, repeatable validation of each new release of a product conducted to ensure that reported product defects have been corrected for each new release and that no new quality problems were introduced in the maintenance process. Automation is often used to reduce the time and resources to perform this type of testing.

Product Certification
"Software certification" is the term used to certify the quality of a software application/ product against the functional and non-functional specifications before its release to production/ end-user. The Certification variances could be Version certification - new Release/ version compliance, Platform compatibility or Defect fix certification - upgrade/ patch certification.

Strategic Test Management Consultancy
A strategic approach to testing will forecast the action plans which includes the different types of testing that would be followed in the testing life cycle, identifying risk issues etc. earlier so that progress can be evaluated more precisely. The development of a test strategy is a means of communication with the customer on the organization of testing and the strategic choices that go with it. Strategic Test Management Consultancy will help identify how test management can be done at the most effective level.

Test Program Management
Project management is a process that spans the entire project life cycle. This process involves mainly review of contractual commitments and project planning during the initiation stage, project monitoring and relationship management during the execution stage. During the project closure stage, a post-project analysis is done and best practices followed in the project are identified and recorded.

Test Automation Consultancy
Test automation consultancy is a part of test process consultancy. It deals with identifying specific modules of the system which fall under the testing process that can be automated and also the best tools and methods to be used for the automation of the testing process.
