Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Key Facts about Outsourcing QA and Software Testing
Often, internal teams find themselves stretched too thin or without the specific tools to conduct thorough testing. That’s when outsourcing your software testing and QA can play a role. Many businesses turn to this method not just to save on costs but to tap into the insights of specialized experts and elevate their product quality.
Here are seven main benefits of outsourcing:
- Access Top-tier Talent: Work with specialized QA talent to tackle your biggest automation and testing challenges. Outsourced experts keep your software robust, efficient, and aligned with industry standards.
- Improve Focus: Outsourcing frees your in-house team to focus on what they do best. External specialists dedicated to quality assurance can address issues more quickly than in-house teams, which often juggle additional responsibilities.
- Enjoy State-of-the-Art Security: Outsourcing QA services introduces a fresh perspective, often identifying overlooked vulnerabilities. External experts stay updated with the latest security threats, using specialized tools like OWASP ZAP for penetration testing. This added expertise strengthens your software’s defense against evolving security challenges.
- Stay in Control: Even though you’re getting outside help, you steer the ship. Collaborate, get updates, and make sure everything is in line with your vision. That’s the beauty of working with a flexible business partner.
- Prevent Data Leaks: Issues in software that handle sensitive data can cause communication failures, blackouts, and data breaches. Testing and QA reduces these risks.
- Improve the User Experience: A detailed testing process will guarantee customers are presented with a valuable, reliable, and secure end product.
- Save Money: Prevention is key. Early detection of bugs and issues means you’ll avoid hefty costs further down the road. It’s more expensive to fix problems when the development process is advanced—or even worse, if the product is finished.
Would you launch a spacecraft without meticulous checks? QA ensures software works seamlessly under real-world conditions, minimizing costly post-launch fixes and reputation risks. Simply put, it’s the difference between hoping your software performs and knowing it will. QA and software testing act as the gatekeepers of product excellence.
Best Practices for Software QA Testing
Staying updated with the latest QA testing best practices is essential. Quality assurance processes are vital for successful software development. Here are the processes and best practices we follow for consistent client success.
Your tailored test strategy should be holistic, encompassing test approach, testing types, tools, and risk analysis. Here’s how we make that happen.
We employ strategies such as Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) and Test-Driven Development (TDD). This means quality starts from the design phase, and testing remains at the core of development.
We test elements like performance, security, scalability, and availability. Collaborating with teams, outline Service Level Objectives (SLOs), and devise Service Level Indicators (SLIs).
Every client and engagement is unique. We handpick the tools best suited to your business, software, and team.
We target up to 80-90% code coverage, ensuring that most of your code undergoes unit testing by our developers.
While we suggest automating most test cases, we also understand the value of manual intervention for certain tests, especially for usability, negative testing, multiple scenarios, and exploratory testing.
Accessibility, security, and performance feedback are integral to our testing strategy, ensuring the end product is user-centric.
Clearly delineate the process—from test initiation and bug identification to the implementation of solutions.
We work with operations and development teams, ensuring our test environments echo the production settings.
Our Scrum Masters actively contribute to the Definition of Ready.
Before release, we check the application’s core functionalities so they work as expected.
We handle the intricacies of test management—from communications and risk assessment to issue mitigation.
We meticulously assess, reproduce, and prioritize issues. When they’re related to a feature, we collaborate with the Product Owner to enhance user experience.
Clear metrics drive continuous improvement. By tracking test cases, bug distribution, and test effectiveness, we constantly refine our approach.
Before any deployment, we gauge the quality and potential risks of new software iterations.
Understanding the nuances of each engagement allows us to remain aligned with both business and technical goals.
We provide debugging insights and integrate testing earlier, ensuring everyone’s on the same page.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
QA services and software testing are closely related but differ in scope. Both activities are aimed at improving the software development process and minimizing defects. However, software testing exclusively involves testing, while QA services refer to a broader set of activities for improving software and reducing instances of bugs, such as risk management.
QA functional testing is a type of software testing that focuses on evaluating the functional aspects of software, ensuring that the software behaves as intended. Examples of functional testing include unit testing and integration testing. The other main type of QA testing is performance testing, which focuses on the performance of the software, including its responsiveness and stability. Other tests include: regression, sanity, smoke, user acceptance, boundary, and end-to-end testing.
A QA assessment thoroughly examines all the quality assurance procedures and practices used in an organization’s software development and testing. Also known as a QA audit or QA review, the goal of the assessment is to evaluate the effectiveness, compliance, and performance of these practices and find any bottlenecks and areas for improvement.
There are many types of tools and frameworks for QA and software testing. Some of the more common ones that we use are:
- Selenium: a framework for automating web browser interactions and creating automated tests for web applications
- JUnit: a testing framework for Java applications that provides annotations and assertion methods for writing and executing unit tests
- Cucumber: a behavior-driven development (BDD) tool that allows you to create tests that are readable by humans
- LoadRunner: a performance testing tool that simulates different user loads to evaluate performance and scalability
Ensuring the security of proprietary software during testing involves several steps, including performing testing in secure environments, limiting access to the software, encrypting and/or tokenizing data, and conducting vulnerability testing. Additionally, all of our QA engineers, testers, and developers use secure communication protocols and conduct regular compliance checks.
