Automation testing
In today's competitive global marketplace, the speed and efficiency of high-quality software development are crucial to success. Nowadays, manual testing alone cannot meet all the requirements of modern development cycles.
In this situation, test automation comes to the rescue with QA Optima, which will provide you with the necessary technologies and, most importantly, experience and expertise that will greatly help accelerate the release of your software without compromising quality.
Why should you implement automation testing?
Automated testing significantly speeds up the software development process and provides many benefits, the main ones are listed below:
- Optimization of development costs
By automating monotonous, often repetitive, and most importantly, challenging and time-consuming checks and actions, you can direct the freed-up resources to other tasks, reducing the overall project costs.
Accelerate the development cycle
Testing automation significantly speeds up the software development and testing processes, allowing you to identify and fix defects in new versions as quickly as possible at the early stages of development.
Improve the accuracy of the testing process
Automated tests eliminate errors that can be made by manual testers, ensuring reliable and accurate execution of repeatable test cases.
Increase test coverage
Run tests simultaneously on multiple environments, platforms, or devices, maximizing test coverage with each release.
Continuous monitoring of critical parts of functionality
By running tests on a schedule, you can continuously monitor the operation of all major functions and discover any problems with the product as soon as possible.
Our automated testing process
In QA Optima, we have our own effective strategy for setting up automation on a project from scratch. This strategy includes the following points:
Requirements collection and analysis:
We start with a thorough collection and analysis of your product requirements.
We check the existing test scenarios, and if they are unavailable, we create our own.
We analyze the automation priority for each part of the functionality.
We calculate the feasibility of automating all parts of the system, considering factors such as the stability of the system and tests, the frequency of test recurrence, and the return on investment (ROI).
Development of a plan for setting up automated testing:
At this stage, we develop a strategy for implementing automation on the project, describing the overall plan and defining the scope, goals, and checkpoints in the progress of automation.
We evaluate all the available information and choose the right tool for developing automated tests based on it.
Development of automated tests:
Our software test automation specialists start automating test scenarios.
We develop a proprietary framework for the product with reusable and maintainable scripts, which provides flexibility and scalability in the future.
Deployment of the developed automated tests and framework
After developing a part of the automated tests and framework, we prepare the infrastructure to run them, either locally or in the cloud.
We can train your manual testers to maintain and add new automated tests, read and analyze reports, etc.
Long-term test support and report analysis
We also provide long-term support services for automated tests and analyze the results of their runs, if necessary.
The main tools we use in the development of automated testing
QA Optima uses the most advanced tools to develop test automation as efficiently as possible, for example:
Playwright, Cypress, and Selenium are our main frameworks for web application automation. They allow you to create reliable and stable test scenarios that simulate user interaction with the product through different browsers and platforms. Due to their flexibility and multifunctionality, they provide a seamless interface for writing stable and efficient tests.
For mobile testing, we rely on Appium – a versatile tool that automates native, hybrid, and mobile web apps on iOS and Android. By testing on real devices and emulators, Appium helps us ensure that your app works reliably across all devices and operating systems, delivering an exceptional user experience.
GitLab and GitHub for CI/CD integration – allow you to deploy test runs in the cloud for further scaling, running on schedule, etc.
