Technology is
being deployed at such gigantic scales and in very critical operations that the
margin for error has become near zero.
As enterprises compete to offer the new standards of speed and accuracy,
the IT ecosystem is constantly evolving into a complex network of device, data
and users leading newer ‘cause and effect’ relationships.
The challenges
appear from four quarters i.e. the rise of the mobile phone, the newer
benchmarks of performance, the increasing variety of devices/technologies and
the quest for convergence in the IT landscape. Problem solving and decision
making now depend on reliable IT systems that can meet the demands of the
stakeholders while ensuring optimum performance.
The onslaught of
Big Data, Device fragmentation and Technology disruption is accompanied by
Cloud, Mobile and Social models. While a superficial view of these trends might
appear chaotic, they tend to facilitate a growing synergy of innovations to
execute tasks of enormous volumes and unique specifications. The consolidation
of such a wide variety of factors is a decisive factor for enterprises in an
economy driven by technology.
The cross
functional expertise of resources, the changing dynamics of the business
environments and process managements demand quick, comprehensive and long term #qualityassurancesystems to win the customer’s confidence. Unlike earlier scenarios, Quality
Assurance now begins at the conceptualization and shadows the product
lifecycle.
With limited resources,
infrastructure and specialization in #testing, the in-house test departments do
not offer comprehensive testing. Moreover, the rising issues of biased
assessments have made the stakeholders wary of ineffective testing, especially
when the success is at stake.
The primary
objective of #independentsoftwaretesting is to identify and mitigate risk with
a verification and validation that not only addresses the existing requirements
but also scale up to the emerging ones. The outcomes of assessments also help
enterprises gain compliance to standards set by the industry, financial
institutions and governments.
Here, #independenttesting
plays the role of a diagnostic system that spots defects, vulnerabilities,
issues and bottlenecks to help clients transform the product/app into a success
story. The unbiased assessments have two inherent advantages. The first
advantage is that the development team and the stakeholders can make changes to
the app to build, deploy and maintain with ease across the entire lifecycle. The
second and the most decisive advantage of independent software testing is that
the end user perspective helps clients enrich the product with an interface,
performance and functionality that matches the demands of the end user.
But since the
requirements are often voluminous, extempore and very unique, the testing has
to stay one step ahead in terms of scalability, flexibility, reusability and
innovation. Which means that the testing services provider needs to have a infrastructure,
resources with multiple specializations, cloud capabilities and tools that fill
point solutions within short timelines.
Cigniti’s
service offerings encompass the entire gamut of software testing with IP tools,
test methodologies, suites, cloud and a strong team of career testers,
certified professionals and process champions. Having delivered impeccable
testing services to business environments across verticals, Cigniti helps
clients built better software and enhance Quality Assurance.
