Why TESTCo? Because Outsourced Software Testing is The Only Work We Do. We Have to be Good.
We've spent the last seven years refining a system that will provide you with actionable results from the very first day that you start testing. Our approach goes beyond just delivering bugs. We take great care to hire QA Managers and Test Engineers who are passionate about delivering results and value.
We pull all this together into a testing process that fits tightly with your organization -
- Together, we establish a monthly, weekly and daily software QA testing plan
- Software QA testing activities can occur over night or during the day
- We access your application and data over a secure Internet connection or installed in our secure labs
Mastering The Communication Channels With QA Testing Services
In order to make sound business decisions, you need to have clear information about the status of your software. To meet this pressing demand, we provide you with a Daily Activity Report each morning so that you can take any necessary actions immediately. If you have questions, you'll get direct answers from your QA Manager.
A key benefit to having a QA Manager is communication. From the outset, you'll have Weekly Status Meetings where you'll get straight talk from our QAM to insure that we are delivering according to your plan.
One of the biggest headaches in outsourced software testing management is that dreaded call in the middle of the night. You won't ever have to take one of those while working with us. Your QA Manager is "on call" 24 hours a day, seven days a week to make sure that outsourced software testing team doesn't have stoppages. Every night, the QAM sets up the team's testing priorities. Only when the offshore software testing team has fallen back on their B, C and D priorities do they pick up the phone.
Before you chose a partner, you should learn everything you can about the details of offshore software testing and On Demand testing services.
Luckily, your education on this site doesn't cost you anything. But an ineffective partnership could cost you your business. Your goal should be to approach a vendor as an educated business partner.
We have a lot of reports that address the complaints we hear about offshore software testing. We believe that we've solved them, and you can read how. If you choose a different partner, we want you to have all of the data that you need to make an informed and rational decision. Take a look at the reports we've written over the past 7 years.
