about company
The company DepreciMax creates asset depreciation software and lease accounting. 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 developer's team and product manager. This 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 | A systematic approach to testing, development of alternative identification methods, as well as constant communication with developers and providing ideas for improving the 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 team 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 и проведения мануального тестирования, 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 is 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 behaviour.
Manual testing
Describes manual testing processes and develops detailed test cases to help testers manually test application features and scripts.
Regression
Maintain existing test cases and create new ones
These steps laid the foundation for an integrated approach to. All customer requirements were met in full.
