Testing

At Charvikent, We conduct comprehensive quality improvement activities in each phase of the application lifecycle—from plan, analyze and design to build, test, deploy and run—across both Agile and Waterfall based delivery models.

FUNCTIONAL TESTING

With the increasing complexity and modernization in the new era of software applications comes plethora of challenges in getting the application tested and make it market ready. Gone are the days when software where developed with the Waterfall cycle approach where testers were given the complete system for testing and sufficient times to get it validated. In this new world of Agile and test driven development, testing team need to strive and continuously innovate the ways for functional testing approach.

At Charvikent, we have built a strong testing foundation which is nurtured by our dedicated testing CoE (Center of Excellence) with emphasis on delivering predictable, strategic and effective outcomes to our clients. As an independent and integrated testing practice, we have evolved from Quality Control to Quality Assurance and now to Business Assurance. Our testing teams are integrated with clients at business and operational levels, while maintaining independence to execute and manage verification and validation activities. We have an experienced high performance team of Functional testers who hold strong technical and functional expertise on various domains. With our reusable test assets we can reduce the overall planning and test designing phase efforts by up to 25%.

Charvikent’s core functional testing offerings are System Integration, UAT, Regression, System, Compatibility, End to End, Accessibility, and Business Process testing.

AUTOMATION TESTING

The CoE team at Charvikent has a dedicated automation practice where our experts have developed two innovative test automation frameworks for businesses - 'CEntAutoW’ for web applications and ‘CEntAutoM’ for mobile applications (Native, Hybrid & Web) to increase effectiveness, efficiency, and coverage of your software testing. These two approaches are both based on a hybrid framework, but they differ in how they are applied — one focuses on being applicable across multiple platforms and applications, while the other is geared towards use in specific real devices and simulators for specific results.

What's more, it's affordable for enterprises as well as smaller companies and saves time and money. Automated tests run test steps for you, automating some repetitive but necessary tasks within a formalized testing process. These tests can be run more quickly and more frequently, giving conclusive pass/fail results in much less time than manual testing

SECURITY TESTING

Data breaches are a growing problem for businesses of all sizes, often leading to business owners facing severe penalties. Over seven million online service users had their privacy violated and their personal information exposed in just two of 2014's big data thefts--Dropbox and Snapchat. These breaches are typically the result of poor security testing during the development of a business's software, and they cost companies millions of dollars every year.

Charvikent's comprehensive approach focuses on technical security testing - where security includes confidentiality, integrity and availability. This means we assess the adherence of systems (including applications, system software, hardware and networks, etc.) to secure architecture and design, as well as coding (i.e., programming) and operational standards. Our testing parameters often include checking for vulnerabilities and programming errors, such as those specified by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP).

Businesses across the world put their confidence in Charvikent for comprehensive security expertise that protects their most valuable assets.

508 COMPLIANCE TESTING

The section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires access to electronic and information technology provided by the Federal government. The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain or use electronic and information technology. Federal agencies must ensure that this technology is accessible to employees and members of the public with disabilities.

While testing any multimedia content or a healthcare portal, there are multiple parameters associated with needs of disabled individuals. The challenges might differ with the type of disabilities like blindness and less vision, deafness and hearing loss, learning disabilities, cognitive limitations, limited movement, speech disabilities, photosensitivity or combinations of these. We have a list of 42 points checklist, which we adhere to while performing 508 compliance testing.

Charvikent can help in 508 Compliance Testing, be it any kind of multimedia assets or website. Our extensive test cases and huge repository of knowledge base for tools and technology will suffice the business needs of your enterprises.

MOBILE TESTING

More than 5,000 unique mobile devices were tracked online in the year 2014; iOS App Store witnessed 75 billion downloads. The Mobile Addict segment is growing the fastest, posting 123% growth (176 million) between 2013 and 2014. It is no wonder that smartphones and tablets are rapidly becoming the primary method of interaction for consumers and businesses worldwide.

However, mobile applications accentuate the complexity of supported platforms to the next level by adding devices. Ensuring that mobile apps are working on all type of devices (smartphone, tablets and phablets) supplied by major brands, with various types of apps (HTML5, Native or Hybrid) and on all the platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, etc.) is challenging in terms of scale, fragmentation, tools availability, time and costs.

At Charvikent, we have a dedicated mobile testing lab with 2000+ unique devices, proprietary mobile test automation framework, established Cross & Intra Platform porting guidelines, backed with experience of testing 50,000+ applications. Our mobile application testing solutions can test all aspects of the mobile user experience from functional to performance to context. Our various types of mobile testing services are as mentioned below:
