about company 

DepreciMax is a company specializing in asset depreciation and lease accounting software. Project allows for detailed modeling of fixed asset depreciation and lease calculation rules for both accounting and tax. 

before 

The project did not undergo a comprehensive quality assurance process, and all testing was performed by the developers and product manager. This limited approach resulted in problems, such as hidden bugs that went unnoticed and unanticipated delays in the product's release.

challenges and solutions 

We provided a QA specialist who performed manual testing for this project to understand the core functionality and user experience. As the project progressed, he moved on to automating manual test cases and writing new ones.

Challenges 

Solutions 

There was a need to integrate the test framework into a separate development process and create stable test automation

Established a comprehensive QA process by implementing a robust testing framework, integrating automated tests into the CI/CD pipeline, and setting up continuous monitoring. This proactive approach allowed identify and address issues early

Lots of hard-to-find elements and no IDs or classes 

Developed alternative identification methods and maintained continuous communication with developers to improve code structure

Unreadable and unclear test results without a reporting system

Implemented a reporting system to generate clear and concise test reports via Allure Reporter. Test results were documented and communicated to the project manager to inform him of progress and facilitate better decision making

technologies, tools and approaches 

Our QA engineer employed a variety of tools to ensure the quality and efficiency of testing: 

  • Manual Testing: Utilized tools like Postman for API testing and DevTools for browser-based debugging and manual testing efforts. 
  • Automated Testing: Employed Webdriver.io to write test scripts that simulate user interactions, ensuring interface consistency and functionality. 
  • Local and Cloud-Based Testing Tools: Leveraged Cloud QA and TestRail for managing and executing detailed test scenarios, enabling efficient test management and comprehensive test case coverage. 
  • Additional Tools: Allure for generating detailed test reports and JUnit for report generation, ensuring clear and actionable insights from testing activities.

features of the project 

The project was focused on the development of software solutions for asset depreciation and for lease accounting, journaling, etc. In addition, the application had integration with other partners such as Xero, Intuit and Microsoft, which required a special approach to the testing process. Our expert applied a special approach to processing financial data using the Page Object Model approach. This approach improves automation code readability, reusability, and maintainability. The project is still active and constantly developing, and its effectiveness is converted into profit. 

results 

After the implementation of test automation and comprehensive manual testing, the customer received the following:

  • 750+ test cases were created for each type of testing
  • 450+ test cases were automated, which increased the efficiency of testing 
  • 80% of the functionality was covered by automation  
  • 50% increase in app conversion after usability testing and improved UI design    

IMPLEMENTATION STEPS 

Project Integration 

Familiarisation with the project objectives, scope, requirements and project plan, which provided a clear understanding of the project context.

Establishment of test infrastructure 

Established a robust test infrastructure, including the tools, environments, and resources required for effective testing across multiple platforms.

Automated testing  

Created and automated test cases to systematically test application components and their behavior. 

Manual testing 

Defined manual testing processes and developed detailed test cases to help testers manually test application features and scripts.

Regression 

Maintained existing test cases and created new ones.

These steps laid the foundation for an integrated approach to. All customer requirements were met in full.
