Our specialized testing services consist of both technical testing services and business oriented testing services. At TEP, we have invested in developing our skills in these test areas and creating our own frameworks and tools which help us deliver quickly and efficiently. We also have experience of a wealth of different commercially available testing tools & products and the environments & situations in which they best add value to these non-functional disciplines.
Performance problems in operational IT systems and software applications are costly both in terms of business disruption and remedial work. These issues tend to go undetected prior to launch because of the difficulty of conducting realistic performance testing.
We have created our Performance Testing Service to address this problem before you launch. Through the use of proven, advanced techniques, a structured testing approach and appropriate performance testing tools, we will reduce the risks of performance failure for new or enhanced applications
If you've ever migrated to new software applications or converted from one IT platforms or infrastructures to another you'll be aware of the risks in this activity. Fear of these risks results in many businesses remaining with legacy systems, unable to take advantage of the rapid advances in technology and IT products and systems.
For those organisations that do migrate their IT solutions or business data there is a balance to be struck between the time and cost it takes to move and the risks involved. Since most companies aren't constantly migrating applications and infrastructures they are usually short of staff with the necessary skills and experience.
We have developed our migration testing services to meet this need. This approach has been proven to work in different business environments and is independent of technology or application type. One of the key elements of a successful data migration is the conversion of the business data into the required format. This data is often extremely valuable and needs to be treated accordingly. It is also often incomplete, inconsistent or inaccurate so data clean-up is a key element of data migration. Our risk-based approach ensures that the critical data conversion is prioritised by the impact and likelihood of failure.
Industry analysts predict that during the second half of this decade, increases in software testing activity will be fuelled by software testing automation. Automated testing tools have matured and ROI to a state where ROI (return on investment) need no longer be a pipe dream.
This will allow more people to be engaged in software test automation with better testing tools. Yet there are still far too many programmes where automation is not delivering on this promise. The main drivers seem to be inflated expectations created by unrealistic ROI in business cases; poor planning and management; and poor skills in implementing the automated testing solution.
It is important to consider automation of the test environment as early as possible and design it into the system from the outset. It's also important to recognise that automation is not appropriate for every project or for all testing on any particular project.
We can help you achieve this balance so that the benefit from test automation at the right time and in the right way.
