Applications verified by Testing Center of Excellence

Software testing is a vital part process used to help identify the correctness, completeness, security, and quality of developed computer software. Today most of the companies are trying to strengthen their online presence. Follow the customer is the key phrase that executive managers are deploying in order to give a solid platform to gain success.

New and upgraded software are the need of the hour which helps companies in reaching out to their customers. Often in this mad rush to get the best possible software for your company, certain criteria are sidelined. These include the cost, time requirements and most importantly the quality. This is a concern that can be tackled with the help of user acceptance testing. It is being used increasingly in order to rectify software issues and provide a necessary edge to the systems.

Software testing, depending on the testing method employed, can be implemented at any time in the software development process. Traditionally most of the test effort occurs after the requirements have been defined and the coding process has been completed, but in the agile approaches most of the test effort is on-going. As such, the methodology of the test is governed by the chosen software development methodology.

Testing generally involves running a suite of tests on the completed system. Each individual test, known as a case, exercises a particular operating condition of the user's environment or feature of the system, and will result in a pass or fail outcome. There is generally no degree of success or failure. The test environment is usually designed to be identical, or as close as possible, to the anticipated user's environment, including extremes of such.

Some companies carry out the testing operations with the help of the users. This is possible only for those companies that have a wide consumer base and have built a trust for themselves in the minds of their consumer. Other companies may use a testing center of excellence.

The testing center of excellence (TCoE) is a logical or physical entity with centralized technology that helps drive quality initiatives across the enterprise. A TCoE can help you standardize on a limited number of quality products, centralize testing resources, eliminate redundancies and increase efficiency across projects. It helps you maximize the re-use of skills, licenses and hardware. And also helps to leverage expertise and retain and grow knowledge in your testing teams. Also, the best practices provided by a TCoE help you deliver quality applications.
