Run by consultants with 20+ years of testing experience, our Software Testing Health Check methodology applies a structured approach; providing rapid, actionable, independent recommendations for increasing the quality of testing within your organisation. Our service examines the effectiveness of your test process, team and tools, to help ensure that projects are delivered on time, with confidence.
Our service covers the entire testing process, tools, metrics, and team throughout the SDLC, aligning with both agile and sequential approaches. Usually a 5-day assessment, it can extend to ten days for bigger or more intricate projects.
A Principal Consultant will typically review:
- QA methodologies and procedures
- Documentation, standards, and templates
- Defect tracking systems, metrics, and KPIs
- Testing tools: management, automation, performance, API testing, security etc
- Test team composition and competencies
- Essential test stages, test and release schedules, and testing scope
- Development methodologies (e.g., Agile, Waterfall, Hybrid, V-model)
- Unidentified historical defects and their root causes
- Test Process Improvement (TPI) maturity level
On completion, we present a report of findings, which include prioritised recommendations on areas for improvement with suggested fixes. Industry standard benchmarks are also used to provide a formal measure of maturity of the test process.
