Quality assurance & testing

Tests planned from the start and automated where useful, so you can deliver with confidence and catch defects before your users do.

01Approach

A bug found during development costs a few minutes. The same bug discovered by a customer costs an emergency fix, a risky release and some lost trust. Quality assurance means moving detection as early as possible in the project.
Our QA engineers get involved from the specification stage: they identify ambiguities, define acceptance criteria and build a test strategy proportionate to the risks. Not everything needs to be tested with the same intensity; what is critical to your business does.
We combine automated tests, run on every code change, with exploratory manual tests, where the human eye remains irreplaceable. We work on our own projects as well as on those developed by your teams or by other providers.

Scope of work

  • Test strategy and test plans
  • Functional and regression testing
  • Test automation
  • Performance and load testing
  • Security testing
  • Compatibility and accessibility testing

02Expertise

Functional acceptance testing

A dedicated team that checks every delivery against documented scenarios, on your users’ browsers and devices.
  • Acceptance test plan and test cases
  • Cross-browser and mobile testing
  • Defect tracking until resolved

Automation

Tests replayed automatically on every change, to detect regressions in minutes rather than in production.
  • Unit, integration and end-to-end tests
  • Integration with the CI/CD pipeline
  • Readable reports on every run

Performance and security

Checking that the application handles the expected load and withstands common attacks, before a launch or a peak sales period.
  • Load tests on realistic scenarios
  • Application security checks
  • Prioritised remediation recommendations

03Methods & tools

Quality that is equipped and measurable

Proven methods and tools built into your delivery pipeline.

Methods

Quality starts before the code.

  • Agile methods
  • Test-Driven Development
  • Acceptance criteria
  • DevOps Testing

Automated tests

Replayed on every code change.

  • Selenium
  • Unit tests
  • End-to-end tests
  • API tests

Code quality

Detecting debt before it sets in.

  • SonarQube
  • Code review
  • Test coverage

Continuous integration

No delivery without passing the tests.

  • GitHub Actions
  • GitLab CI
  • CircleCI
  • Jenkins

04Why iones

What iones QA changes for you

Fewer surprises in production, and deliveries you can make without worry.

Defects detected early

Quality built in from the specifications, which reduces late fixes, always the most expensive.

Regressions under control

A base of automated tests that secures every change and speeds up the pace of releases.

An independent view

Testers who are not the authors of the code, with the distance needed to find what the developer no longer sees.

Measured quality

Indicators tracked over time: defects per delivery, coverage, time to fix.

05Method

Our process for quality assurance and testing

4 steps

  1. Step 01

    Analysis and planning

    • Analysis of the specifications
    • Identification of quality criteria

    • Creation of test plans
    • Setting up the environments
  2. Step 02

    Automated tests

    • Script development
    • Unit tests
    • Integration tests
    • Regression tests
    • Performance tests
  3. Step 03

    Manual tests

    • Functional tests
    • Usability tests
    • Compatibility tests
    • Security tests
    • Accessibility tests
  4. Step 04

    Reporting and improvement

    • Analysis of results
    • Detailed reports
