Software Quality Control and Software Testing

The development of functional and best possible software is the main goal, and only with the help of quality control and software testing this can be achieved. Moreover, only with the help of software and modern solutions of the highest quality can you offer a flawless user experience, smooth operation and guarantee the reliability of applications.

SOFT MASTER is a software development company that also operates as an independent software testing company capable of meeting all user requirements in the field of software quality control and testing.

SOFTMASTER resorts to various types of testing to make sure that their software or software developed by other software companies meets the highest possible quality requirements.

Testing methods and forms we use:

1. Functional testing — The purpose of functional testing is to check whether the software performs all the tasks set and required by the business model for which it is intended. Such testing performs a continuous check of all software functions and evaluates their performance. When the software is ready or there are some changes in the code and software, regression testing (part of functional testing) is started to check whether these changes correspond to the overall picture.
2. Cross-browser Testing - This type of testing can also be considered as part of functional testing, as it checks how the software works in different browsers.
3. Automated Testing — Automated testing is a system that uses special software that performs these tests automatically and periodically, which significantly reduces the testing time and at the same time simplifies the process.
4. Performance Testing — Performance testing is conducted to determine how different system parameters respond to different workloads in terms of performance and overall stability. Some tested quality attributes are scalability, resource usage, and reliability.
5. Stress Testing - During stress testing, the system is put under strong pressure to cause failures and check whether the system is able to recover in case of a crash.
6. Load Testing — Load testing determines how the system or application behaves under normal and peak load conditions, for example, when more users simultaneously use the application or system. It determines which part of the system needs improvement and restoration.
7. Compatibility Testing — Compatibility tests show how well the software works in certain hardware, software and system/network environments and their combinations.
8. Localization Testing — This type of testing checks whether the software product is adapted to the area in which it will work, in terms of language and other localization features.
9. Installation Testing — Installation testing checks the software for complete and partial installation/uninstall on different systems and when using different hardware.
10. Security Testing — Assessment of software security measures and mechanisms.
11. Usability Testing — Usability testing determines whether the software is rated highly on the UX scale and how easy it is to use.
12. Mobile Testing — Mobile testing, as its name implies, checks the functionality of the mobile software application, determines the optimal configuration for uninterrupted use and checks whether all updates and installation procedures have been performed without failures and errors.

Software Development Control and Management

The control and management of software development is a complex process that can be easily tracked with issue tracking or with project management tools. The workload is sometimes too heavy, which can lead to a lack of visibility of the daily activities of employees, a lack of intersectoral communication and control, disparate processes and unclear tasks, as well as disparate data.

However, SOFTMASTER has a solution. Our software provides automation of various management processes, such as trouble ticketing, management of any customer requests for changes, bug tracking, and others. We can combine all the data and documents into a single user interface and thus facilitate cooperation between different teams, which will lead to the creation of a higher quality product.

Software Compliance Monitoring

All business companies must comply with particular regulations specific to different territories. If a piece of software does not comply with these rules, as a business owner you may be convicted of a criminal offense, and your business may face closure and heavy fines, which will undoubtedly damage your business activities.

Throughout our software development process, the system and software we use will be continuously monitored so that we can ensure that they comply with laws both locally and globally.

The task of the compliance monitoring software we use, such as MyEasyISO, Compliance Locker, CompuCal and many others, is to first perform compliance reporting at all stages of software development to ensure compliance with laws and regulations.

The software will provide automated tools to ensure continuous monitoring of financial transactions. Also, it can help with policy management. All documents are stored in a centralized location and can be easily accessed by all team members so that we can be sure that they are aware of policies and procedures.

The software has a built-in compliance calendar that will send real-time alerts whenever new rules need to be reviewed and when a task is completed.

Having such software at our disposal, we can say with confidence that there will be no problems with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or any other regulatory acts.
