Our engagement

Soapbox approached DeviQA to help it optimize its QA process and improve the quality of the software product, which consisted of a web platform and a prototype of an Android mobile application. Our main objectives were to create well-structured and relevant test documentation and speed up software testing while increasing its efficiency.

We created over 2.5k test cases and automation scripts for the web platform, achieving a remarkable 90% test coverage. Additionally, we successfully reduced the time for regression testing from 1.5 weeks to 3 days. As a result, we caught more than 1.5k bugs, 60% of which were categorized as critical, blocker, or major.

We were engaged in the development of the Android mobile application from the prototype stage to its full-fledged launch. We addressed all QA aspects, including requirements validation and full-cycle software testing. With our help, many functional and major design glitches were prevented.

In the mobile application, we refactored a huge amount of code and updated all outdated libraries to ensure easy maintainability and scalability in the future. We also added some features that improved the overall user experience.

Our efforts resulted in over 80 successful releases of the web app and more than 15 successful releases of the Android application. What is important is that, with our comprehensive testing services, Soapbox has increased product quality and user loyalty.

Our QA engineers created and maintained over 2500 test cases that covered 90% of the web application. Every new feature went through a well-planned testing process to ensure the delivery of a high-quality product.

Dedicated QA team
