In spite of a multifold increase in software development outsourcing, there still remains a need for outsourced testing.

Intersoft uses premier testing tools, such as Mercury Interactive(TM) WinRunner ® and LoadRunner ® for regression and load testing. We also use TestDirector ® for managing our testing processes.

Intersoft is currently testing systems created in diverse platforms such as Mainframes, Unix and Windows involving technologies like TPF, Client/Server and J2EE. The entire testing process has been segregated into manual and automated testing.

We at Intersoft also encompass quality control and quality assurance in our testing efforts. The result is a product of best quality and a process that is ever improving. Intersoft uses its organizational strategies in the testing process, therefore the achievement of quality goals is well within its reach.

Methodology

Working with the Development team, the Intersoft SQA team obtains builds of the first functioning integration. The team then works with the features as they mature, to determine their interaction and level of testing required, thereby validating the functionality throughout the product.

Intersoft’s testing process is composed of intertwined layers of manual, ad -hoc and structured testing, supplemented by automated regression testing. These layers are enhanced as the product matures. The complete team comprised of developers, testers and documenters are expected to interact aggressively and exchange ideas and status.

We also define and design an automated test environment with an array of high-end testing tools. The automation process at Intersoft is planned as a separate sub-phase and milestones for automation are synchronized with corresponding testing activities.
