AIA's team needed help in software testing because they didn't have time to dedicate to it but, at the same time, they needed more stability on their platform. That's why they asked for Abstracta's help.
Over three years, we helped this company to organize and optimize the software testing process. We kept test scenarios up to date and added new tests as changes/new implementations were developed.
Built a team culture that helped us, even in times without PO, to communicate effectively and ensure we were all aligned on purpose, objectives, and expectations
Increased team velocity and aligned with Product strategy and DDX team to ensure we’re delivering the most valuable product increments.
Engagement with end-users, participation in focus groups, story mapping definition, and roadmapping. Achieved a better understanding of the user needs and purpose with DDX, and improved the reporting experience.
UI and API Test suites automated and integrated in a Continuous Integration Pipeline. Built a culture of looking to automate high ROI or High-Risk features.
Great team culture and trust, always pursuing the squad goals and aligning with multiple providers to ensure we were all on the same page towards reaching our goals.
Always looking for solutions without sacrificing quality. Providing recommendations regarding the QE strategy and also watched out for process improvements or changes in order to optimize the way that software was delivered.
Abstracta team worked closely with the product owners to give support to the stakeholders if needed, answering questions and showing how the product works. There was an effort to train the Product strategy squad on testing matters so they have enough knowledge to conduct testing themselves with the Abstracta team support.
Mostly functional testing was conducted, following a test case approach using Zephyr and performing exploratory testing occasionally. Automation testing was on the agenda using TestProject but due the continuous tight deadlines and workload, this was not possible to achieve as expected.
Test cases definitions and executions were quality guided aiming to release quality products with no impact to end-users.
Team deeply integrated in the development process, always pursuing the squad goals and aligned with several providers.
In only three years, we were able to deeply integrate in AIA's process. We drew the path for intense testing, always seeking to increase the quality products. We worked closely with AIA's team and shared knowledge to conduct testing themselves with the Abstracta team support.
We achieved a better understanding of the user needs, improved the reporting experience and so the quality of every single process.
We built trusting relationships with AIA's team and helped them improve their overall process. We implemented strategies and process improvements to ensure higher quality products, as well as more confidence and satisfaction of the end client.
