They have internally certified in ISTQB equivalent courses and have the latest know-how about testing best practices.
Kickoff And Onboarding
We get to know about your application and you share any documentation, existing test cases, etc. that you have on your app. We also assign you the testers with the right set of knowledge to test your apps as well as an appropriate QA manager and an experienced QA architect.
Testing Strategy Planned
Our QA architect meets with your dev team and prepares the best testing strategy for your software applications based on the current app as well as your future direction.
New Build Received
We receive the latest product build from you for testing. This is often moving your build to the staging area where our team can test it.
Test Cases Written
Your QAonCloud testing team starts writing the test cases according to the application demo and the testing strategy. They are reviewed by the QA manager as well as the QA architect.
Tests Executed
The QAonCloud team starts executing the test cases that report any bug that they find. The QA manager reviews any bugs that have been identified and determine the final list.
Defects Reported
The bugs are shared with your dev team and we wait for them to be fixed while continuing with the rest of the testing. Once the bugs are fixed we repeat the relevant test cases to ensure they are indeed fixed.
Repeat - Go To New Build Received
The process is repeated for every build of the software. We ensure that no build of the software is released without extensive testing. The process involves doing regression testing for all previous builds along with testing for the use cases added in the latest build to ensure a bug-free customer experience.

We work with you to build your customized testing strategy and plan. We make it super easy to collaborate with your in-house dev team using the latest technology. And you are the owner of all our deliverables.
Test Strategy And Plan
We start off the engagement by building a comprehensive Test Strategy and Plan in conjunction with your product manager that is customized to your software, timelines, and needs. This master plan document serves as the future guidepost to all testing activities for the project.
Test Cases
We would prepare the test cases to start with as per the test strategy and plan document created above. This will be constantly enhanced, updated, and modified with time to keep in sync with your changing needs. These will be stored in the system of your choice.
Mind Map
With inputs from your team, we prepare the mind map, a great visual representation of your software universe, to show the relationships amongst all of the individual entities that your software interacts with. We usually find this to be a great resource for the team going forward.
Automation Script
All automation scripts generated as per the test strategy formulated above will be maintained in a code repository of your choice. We will regularly execute the automation scripts and update them as and when needed. Bug reports from the test runs would be shared.
Bug Reports
We would constantly generate bug reports based on the execution of the test cases from above. Every test cycle would have its own bug report and would be generated and maintained in the bug tracking tool of your choice.
Production Summary
We will share the daily, monthly & yearly production summary reports that summarize the overall production metrics and work done. This helps the customer to understand and track the work progress in a more efficient way.
