Our engagement

DeviQA's goal was to build an efficient testing process from scratch. Our QA team defined critical app functionality and prepared all required test artifacts such as Test Cases (8000+), Test Suites (20+), and standardized bug reports. All documentation was used during release preparation to thoroughly test all critical parts of an application. With its help around 24 app versions were released with 0 critical/major bugs.

The QA team participated in the evaluation of new functionality and designed test documentation for it. Our QA engineers closely collaborated with the development team, designers, and product teams from the outset of development to proactively prevent potential issues. Thus, they carefully checked requirements to identify errors or ambiguities that might later turn into bugs as well as tested critical and new functionality before release, identifying defects that could appear during merging. Additionally, the team covered all critical functionality of new mobile applications with autotests.

With the support of comprehensive test documentation, the adoption of industry-leading QA practices, and the integration of automated testing, we are proud to have assisted the SimpliField team in achieving a consistently high level of quality across all app releases.

Services provided

Mobile automation testing

For the new mobile apps, we have implemented a regression flow that runs 4 times faster, preventing critical defects from entering the production version and ensuring the stability of every new mobile build.

Web testing

Most of the tests are performed before introducing new features and capabilities into a production environment. Regression tests run before each release, covering all critical functionality to prevent blocking bugs. We report around 40+ tickets per cycle (2 sprints) where UI/UX bugs comprise 35%, functional bugs - 60%, and suggested improvements - 5%. Notably, a significant portion of our recommendations has been successfully implemented in the project. Utilizing TestRail and Jira, we maintain robust test documentation for seamless regression runs.

Mobile testing

We meticulously test critical areas of each new version of the Android/iOS apps across various mobile devices. Additionally, we conduct rigorous testing for data synchronization with the web platform before and after each release. Throughout the mobile app testing process, we generate detailed reports, averaging around 20+ tickets per cycle (2 sprints). These tickets primarily include UI/UX bugs (30%), functional bugs (65%), and suggested improvements (5%). Regression testing is executed within 3 days.

Dedicated QA team

A dedicated QA team of 3 Engineers has participated in the development process since its beginning. While the development team works on code, our QA engineers create test cases for web and mobile scenarios. Before releasing features, the QA team tests all critical areas of the project on the web and mobile and meticulously checks these new features. Thanks to our work it is easier to decide about go/no go release.
