Test Automation
The organizations that have implemented SCIGON’s TAF continue to enjoy benefits such as:
- Smart tagging of test cases that helps execution based on “release objectives”.
- Continuous integration testing with leading CI server tools & multiple test data sources.
- Compatibility with leading ERPs, packaged solutions, Web, mobile, and thick-client applications
- Large repository of keywords for a common, scalable knowledge base that promotes reuse of functional libraries
- Dashboards with in-depth visibility into project status, test execution results & analysis reports
- Single point maintenance methodology that reduces complex operating costs, overall testing time, & brings about quicker ROI.
- Enables clients to run comprehensive regression tests for major & minor releases improving the overall quality of applications.
- Integration with open and commercial test automation tools to make validation of complex business processes easy.
Regression Testing
Users demand rapid changes to applications as their needs are more dynamic than ever. Modifications in the database & operating system updates, deployment configurations, bug fixes, functionality enhancements, integrations, patches, interfaces, etc. require Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD). This requires Continuous Testing (CT) practices to be in place.
Regression testing is a CT practice that mandates re-running of functional & non-functional tests. This ensures that the software continues to perform in the same manner as it did before making any changes. For the regression test to function effectively, it is important for enterprises to implement robust test automation services in place.
SCIGON’s systematic approach to Regression Testing ensures minimum disruption while keeping costs under control. Our Regression Testing suite guarantees that the new features or enhancements to the application do not cause any unintended impact to the existing quality of the applications. Our regression testing solutions ensure outcomes of these enhancements are as per the original plan. Our test teams thoroughly understand and perform impact analysis of the changes that are made to the test environment and the applications.
