What testing methods are available?

Various software testing methods are available to comprehensively ensure the quality and functionality of software. These can be roughly divided into functional and non-functional tests, each of which tests different aspects of the software. While functional tests ensure that the application meets the specified requirements, non-functional tests focus on qualitative features such as performance, security and user-friendliness.

Functional test

Functional testing is a fundamental testing method in the software development process that aims to ensure that the software application meets the specified functional requirements. These tests focus on what the software is supposed to do by comparing the actual functions of the application with the specified requirements.

Non-functional testing

Non-functional tests focus on checking the features of a software that are not related to specific functions. These tests evaluate the how aspects of the software by examining its performance, usability, reliability and other qualitative characteristics.
Non-functional tests include:

  • Load and performance testing:  Checking the performance of your software under different load conditions.
  • Test for internationalization (I18N): Ensuring that your software is suitable for international use.
  • Localization test (L10N): Adaptation of your software to the cultural and linguistic requirements of the target markets.
  • Compatibility test: Testing the software on different platforms, operating systems and devices.
  • Security test: Identification and elimination of security gaps.
  • Usability test: Evaluation of the user-friendliness of your application.
  • Documentation test: Checking the completeness and comprehensibility of the documentation.

Reviews and inspections

Experts carry out detailed reviews and inspections to identify and rectify errors at an early stage. These measures help to ensure the quality of the software right from the start.

Code analysis

Through thorough code analyses, we identify weaknesses and optimization potential in your code. In this way, we ensure that the software remains robust and maintainable.

Different levels of test methodology

We offer comprehensive testing at various levels of software development:

  • Module and component testing: testing individual software modules or components for correct functioning.
  • Integration test: Ensuring that the modules work together smoothly.
  • System test: Checking the software system in its entirety.
  • Acceptance test: Final test to check whether the software meets the customer's requirements.

Specialized tests

In addition to the general test methods, we offer specialized test services:

  • Crowd test: Involving a broad user base to identify errors.
  • Embedded testing: testing embedded systems and their integration.
  • Mobile app testing: Checking the functionality and performance of mobile applications.
  • Web testing: Ensuring the quality of web applications across different browsers and platforms.
