“TESTCo brings to the table two major assets. The first is the formal QA experiences and methodology that we can benefit from TESTCo’s best practices. The second is the varying resource demands we have depending on release cycles.”
-James Wang VP Engineering, TriActive
What are the Pros & Cons of On Demand Software Testing?
It is less expensive than using your developers to test.
It is easier to initiate a project and begin testing immediately, as opposed to trying to manage everything yourself.
We’re ready to start within 24 hours. We can usually start tonight if you call us early enough in the day.
We are trained and experienced software testing experts.
We use proven software testing tools and management methods – and we can use your tools and processes if you prefer. We also have experience testing in agile.
We deliver daily results, and we touch base with you every morning.
Cons:
We can’t test everything immediately.
We can’t fix the defects we find.
Our Test Engineers won’t meet every qualification of your hiring profile, experience and culture requirements. We’re not interviewing to join your company – we’re testing your software.
Our Test Engineers won’t necessarily be sitting in your office. Although, we can make this happen with our nearshore services if need be. Learn if you should consider nearshore or offshore services.
We won’t immediately know your software development methodology or all the details of your application. We’re smart but not psychic.
You will get defects and test cases EVERY day, so you’ll need to be prepared to take care of them.
