Cloud Testing

CLOUD TESTING SERVICES

Software testing is an essential part of the software development cycle. Until recently, companies were depending on in-house resources for carrying out software testing. However, with the development of component-based and distributed applications leading to resultant increase in software complexities and high cost of maintenance of in-house testing facilities as well as delays in time-to-market of products, businesses are looking forward to employing more effective testing approaches.
Cloud testing is emerging as a cost-effective way for carrying out testing of small scale as well as enterprise applications. The increasing popularity of cloud computing has led to the rise of cloud-based testing as a low-cost testing approach. This involves the use of cloud infrastructure to carry out the software testing. Cloud testing services provides several deep-seated advantages as compared to traditional testing techniques that include:
• Reduced Testing Costs
• Enhanced Testing Effectiveness
• Flexibility
• Scalability
• Pay Per Use
• Real World Traffic can be Simulated from Multiple Locations
• Easy Monitoring of the Testing Environment
• Easy Availability of Infrastructure and Staff
• Reduced Execution Time of Testing for Large Applications

At the same time, cloud-based testing introduces a new set of challenges, such as concerns regarding data security, cloud vulnerabilities, data accessibility, and a lack of standards. In addition, the use of cloud testing requires skilled staff with considerable expertise in conducting these tests.
Instead of investing in-house cloud technology, a practical and cost-effective way for businesses to get the advantage of cloud- testing is to outsource it to an expert software testing service provider. VsoftQA Technologies, a leading Software Testing Company, has greater than 16 years’ experience in providing quality software testing services.

By outsourcing their testing requirements, businesses can control testing costs, increase the test coverage, and management overhead as well as speed up their software development life cycle and monetize it faster. Companies can then pay for what they use. They can also profit from the technical expertise of the testing teams @VsoftQA.

Cloud Testing Processes and Methodology

VsoftQA’ dedicated and experienced testing team has certain procedures in place to ensure that cloud testing goes well. The following steps are usually followed:
Requirement Analysis: Our testing team will determine the requirements for testing, following consultation with our client developers. They will determine the scope of the testing and the test objectives.
Test Planning: This would be done in collaboration with our clients. Our testing team will then create the test plan. We will then allocate the resources required for the testing as well as come up with the kind of tools we would be using.
Definition of Test Plan: Determining the kind of testing strategies to be used for testing: this includes functional testing, performance, load, stress testing etc.
Writing Test Case: Our testers would write test cases specially taking into consideration the particular aspects of cloud testing and user stories.
Execution: The testing team will then execute the test across a number of different platforms, devices, and browsers as per the client specifications. Cloud-based unit testing tools would be used.
Automation: We will carry out functional automation testing using cloud based automation.
Continuous Integration
Monitoring and update: The entire process will be monitored and the client would be informed of the progress.
Identification, Tracking and Removal of Bugs: Bugs will be tracked and suitable corrections would be done to ensure the removal of the bugs.
