When business models and markets change faster than the applications that support them can be developed, software testing is often first to be cut from the budget or schedule despite the fact that software defects have a direct, negative impact on profitability. Even a small number of defects can have a catastrophic impact on a business, its customers, and its partners. It is estimated that a software defect found and fixed post-production costs 100 times more than if the defect was found in the design stage.

APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE (API)
The Application Programming Interface (API) is the bridge between your developers and the functionality they want to use. API testing double-checks your programming work.

Browser, Operating System, and Hardware Compatibility Testing Services
COMPATIBILITY
Testing software behavior under different browsers, operating systems, and hardware configurations can help provide all users with a satisfactory experience.
STRESS
Pushing applications and systems to their functional limits can provide benchmarks for future scalability.
PERFORMANCE
Determining speed of response, time to process, and data throughput.
INTEGRATION
Testing software modules in combination can identify conflicts between components.
INTEROPERABILITY
Making sure that your software works well with other applications on the system.

Automated testing offers advantages such as test-explicitness, bug reproducibility, and test reusability. The most significant advantage is speed of repetitive testing and savings in associated costs and time. Additional benefits include allowance for vital load testing, performance testing, and stress testing. GenySoft provides automation expertise for all of (though not limited to) the following:

• Desktop UIs
• Web UIs through common web browsers
• Code-based APIs
• Web service-based APIs
• Use cases

Automated testing also greatly simplifies and reduces costs associated with tests difficult for manual testers to complete, such as processing dozens of transactions simultaneously or generating multiple accounts. Having a single automated test suite can reduce hours of redundant manual testing, translating directly into cost savings for you.

Choosing the wrong tools or test methodologies can be costly in dollars, time, and results. Because GenySoft operates as a provider of a subset of IV&V services, you can be assured of unbiased recommendations as to whether or not automation is the right choice. Targeting the specific needs and requirements for you and your products will provide the most effective cost and testing experience, substantial ROI, and, ultimately, the competitive advantage that sets your company apart.

AUTOMATION TESTING PLATFORMS
Web:

Our web automation focuses on automating user flows to fully regress all functionality, utilizing diverse test data simulating real world data. Each flow can be written once and then tested with a full range of data. Doing so allows the automation to fully test edge and corner cases in quickly repeatable actions for aid in debugging intertwined web-based systems.
We can also focus our testing to target the APIs of a site to test their performance and handling of a wide array of data at controlled rates. Additionally, we can simulate real world issues arising from a web platform to test imperfect conditions.

Mobile:

Mobile automation is a challenging platform to solve due to the number of devices and platforms. Couple this with the scarcity of robust automation tools available and this can be an expensive undertaking if not properly configured. Our experience working in this environment enables us to quickly develop a custom framework that is tailored to your needs. This customization allows us to develop a solid foundation and maximize your ROI.

Our approaches encompass a multitude of different angles from user-agent manipulation to lab-based test automation.

Desktop:

The desktop automation is used to regress through the major functionality of an application to verify expected operation from build to build. Desktop automation is also used to cycle through settings of an application, testing many or all permutations to verify the application works appropriately for each with no unexpected dependencies between settings. Finally, the automation is used to perform large numbers of repeat operations for stress testing the application, or to create test results that can aid manual testing.

In the highly competitive landscape of the mobile application market, the quality of your mobile app is everything.

Because customers have the ability to provide immediate reviews that directly influence the success of your business, ensuring usability and bug-free functionality prior to release is crucial to the success of your mobile app. With an ever-changing set of mobile devices, carriers, and constantly updated operating systems, developing and maintaining that quality app is more difficult than ever. GenySoft can help you successfully deliver and launch mobile solutions by overcoming the major challenges that can impact development, release, and distribution.

How do we do it? GenySoft’s testing lab maintains an extensive and ever-growing collection of phones, tablets, and other mobile devices including iOS, Android and Windows platforms. We have a talented team of innovative, problem solving testers staffed and ready to help take your app to the next level. By asking the right questions at the right time, we are able identify the solutions to your specific challenges early, and find the make-or-break problems before your customers do.
