How Does QA Save Resources?

Post release bug fixes are expensive.

  • According to the IBM System Science Institute, a bug fix during the maintenance phase is up to 100 times higher than one found during development.

We love to talk about projects. Tell us about yours.

We have a passion for software development projects — each one has it's own nuances and quirks. Feel free to reach out if you would like to talk about yours.

Bias-Free Independent Testing Delivers Better Outcomes

 

  • QA test engineers and software engineers have  different practical experience.

  • Functional testing is not an ideal use of a developer’s time.

  • Developers are thinking about how to create an application whereas testers are challenging functionality to find flaws so end users do not.

OnPath Testing’s Unique Value

OnPath’s self-managed model takes oversight pressure off clients while delivering solutions and results.

OnPath's reporting system gives clients an open window into projects throughout the testing process.

OnPath's flexibility allows clients to scale services as needed throughout a project life cycle.

Choosing the Right QA Testing Company

 

choosing-right_QA

Factors to consider when choosing a QA Service

  • How does the service minimize disruption during onboarding?
  • How much oversight will be required from you, the client?
  • Where are they located, and how does that impact accessibility?
  • Will they work with the client budget?

 

Core Services: What to Look for in a QA Testing Company

  • Are the services scalable? Can the client switch services on and off?
  • Does the provider collaborate with clients, or do they just deliver reports?
  • Does the provider want to understand the client's business objectives?
  • What is the provider's communication model and ethic?
 

The Importance of an Adaptable Testing Strategy

  • What is the provider's standard process?
  • How do they apply best practices  to the test cycle?
  • Will the provider adapt their standard process to the client's unique team and project?

FAQ's

What is your team structure, and how do you manage your team?

Because we have been QA testing for 20-plus years, we’re confident that we offer the best solutions to ensure both testing success and affordability. Our team structure is US-based management to ensure strong leadership and crystal clear communication, with offshore engineers that provide the bulk of the testing and cost savings. OnPath overlaps with clients to ensure that team cohesion and communications are smooth, and meets with client leads as needed to keep everyone on the same page at each stage of the project.

What kind of tools do you use to support your projects?

We have experience with the top tools in the QA workspace from the test management side, including Jira, Confluence, Rally, VersionOne, and BugZilla. For manual testing, we use TestRail, Xray, Zephyr, and FitNesse. Automation testing tools and frameworks include Selenium, Cypress, Postman, Nightwatch, and Cucumber, and performance tools include JMeter, LoadRunner, and WebLoad. OnPath continually tests emerging testing tools and technology, adding the best options to its toolbox.

Why not hire an offshore freelancer myself instead of engaging with you?

As an award-winning QA and software testing company for more than 20 years, OnPath has built client relationships based on trust and dependability. Hiring OnPath means you get a QA team that can hit the ground running, unlike a freelancer who may provide a glowing profile but fails to deliver when it matters most. Offshore-based agents can also appear and disappear, leaving clients without legal recourse. 


OnPath leverages decades of combined testing experience and gives clients scalability when needs either grow or decrease  — no need to let contractors go if budgets tighten with the hope that they will be available when needed in the future. 

How do you bill for your work – is it an hourly rate or a flat rate?

We believe that clients should only pay for what they need and use, and not be locked into a contract that doesn’t allow for the reality of changing priorities. Therefore we tend to work on a time and materials basis in our projects to offer our clients maximum flexibility. However, if a client prefers an ongoing work model of ongoing with a retainer we are happy to discuss — connect with us to explore options and discuss needs. 

Can you work within our unique implementation of the agile process?

Absolutely. More often than not we work with teams using hybrids of different agile methodologies with unique processes based on their team dynamics, experience, and preferences. There is no “one-size-fits-all” within development, and we are happy to work with and even improve your process as best we can.

What if we just need you for a short period, or on an “as required” basis?

Our flexibility in resourcing is a primary reason for repeat, long-term clients who provide frequent referrals to their colleagues. OnPath is happy to work with clients to ensure that QA needs are met in the most advantageous way.

What can you do to help us attain visibility in our Dev/QA cycle?

OnPath exposes necessary data within the development process, and then makes it available to decision-makers such as tech leads, support staff, sales and marketing, and others within the organization. This provides stakeholders with a bird’s-eye view of Dev/QA progress within any given sprint. OnPath supports this “open window” on the Dev/QA cycle by building dashboards and dynamically-generated reports that align with client requirements. 

Do I have dedicated QA engineers on my team, or is it a pool of shared testing resources?

Developing and testing a quality piece of software requires consistency of knowledge and effort to get past the finish line in a cost-effective and efficient way. Therefore, we dedicate our engineers to your project to build internal subject matter expertise, providing full transparency at all times.
