CompatibilityTesting
   
 

In today’s technology dependent world each customer information technology base is an unique mix of a variety of OS, browsers, databases, servers, clients, and hardware. Different versions, configurations, display resolutions, and Internet connection speeds. These wide components create a great impact on the behavior of the software product in use, which directly increases the cost of maintenance.

The major challenge faced during software development is to ensure that the application works properly on various platforms and operating systems that are available in the market and also with the applications and devices in its own environment.

Compatibility testing service aims at locating application problems by running them in real environments, thus ensuring the Clients that their application is compatible with various hardware, operating system and browser versions. Compatibility testing verifies product reliability with respect to fast-evolving industry standards and also provides the Client with crucial data on the product behavior when their software product works on different hardware platforms, with different protocols, under different OS and with different applications.

Having spent a considerable amount on the development of a web-based application with all the required functionality it would be a nightmare to encounter incompatibility issues with regards to end users experiences with respect to application access. Hence it is important to test the application across different Operating Systems and Browsers to ensure that it behaves as expected.


Approach:

  • Testing a Web site, or Web-delivered application for compatibility with a range of leading browsers and desktop/hardware platforms
  • Testing an application on a wide range of operating systems and in combination with other applications
  • Verifying the compatibility and interoperability of a set of enterprise-class applications in a complex hardware and software environment designed to meet the clients’ specific business needs
  • Selective Testing is used based on the criticality of the user environment, i.e., Testing an application with environments, which are mostly used, will be more rigorous. This approach optimizes the overall testing effort.
  • The detailed test reports that are delivered to the Client are Test Execution documents and Defect Tracking reports.
Benefits:
 
  • KSTS helps the developers in meeting the challenges in compatibility testing and also in mitigating the risks associated with compatibility or interoperability of their applications.
  • Having executed compatibility testing projects over the years, KSTS has well defined test processes that ensure consistency in testing and test results.
  • With proven experience in Compatibility Testing, KSTS has repeatedly helped Clients in identifying bottlenecks.
