Client: A mid size software services company

Objective:
To do functional testing of their application (client server system).

Approach:
A consultative approach was taken to help the client understand various aspects of testing particularly when there is a change of OS for the testing tool. The concept of socket based recording was implemented for the testing environment. The Unix based application was invoked through Telnet and then tested in the windows environment.

MicroGenesis did a handholding for the customer throughout the entire phase of testing. The onsite scenarios with the client were also managed, thus gaining confidence about the predictability of the release.

Results:
There was a considerable cost reduction, minimization of time (by almost 40%) and a complete traceability between requirements, test case and test results. It enabled the client to map the entire life cycle using the automated tools and get past performance bottlenecks.
