Functional Testing
CQE’s functional testing approach is a context-driven, risk-based functional testing service that harnesses the power of heuristics, exploratory testing, and automated regression testing. Designed to efficiently streamline the software testing process, we deliver reliable results without the time-consuming procedures typically associated with comprehensive testing protocols.
Context-driven Testing
We adapt our strategies and focuses on specific areas based on the nature of the application, the users, and the overall business needs. By paying attention to the nuances of each project, the testing process is more targeted, ensuring important areas aren't overlooked.
Risk-Based Testing
We analyse each application to identify high-risk areas that are more susceptible to bugs. This allows the testing efforts to be concentrated where they're most needed, optimizing the testing process and potentially preventing major issues down the line.
Heuristic Analysis
Heuristics are experience-based techniques that help in problem-solving, learning, and discovery. CQE’s approach leverages heuristics to make educated guesses where necessary, significantly reducing the amount of time and resources needed to uncover potential issues.
Exploratory Testing
Along with our strategic, focused testing methods, we also use exploratory testing to mimic user behaviours and interactions. This approach can often reveal issues that more structured testing might miss.
Automated Regression Testing
CQE’s functional testing incorporates an automation feature for regression testing. This enables it to quickly and efficiently verify that previously tested and verified software still performs after a change. This saves a lot of manual re-testing time, allowing more focus on new features and their quality.
Real-time reporting
Our real-time reporting system ensures that you stay informed of the testing process at every stage. It includes details about what has been tested, issues discovered, and recommendations for solutions.
Upon receiving a new project, CQE’s expert testers first evaluate the software's context, understanding its intended use, user base, and more. Then, we analyse the software to identify high-risk areas and designs a testing strategy that focuses on these areas.
Utilising heuristic and exploratory testing methods, our method effectively imitates real-world user behaviour, exploring the software's functionality and searching for any issues that might affect user experience.
Meanwhile, our automated regression testing system works in the background, checking for any issues that might have arisen due to changes in the software. If a problem is detected, the system immediately alerts the team, offering solutions for rectification.
With this intelligent approach, CQE’s approach reduces the time and resources needed for functional testing, while ensuring a thorough and reliable analysis of your software's performance.
