Wouldn’t be amazing if you could test in real world a newly developed software BEFORE it rolls out to the market? Actually, User Acceptance Testing (also known as UAT, Beta, Application, or End-User Testing) can do this. It is the last quality check ‘gate’ that validates the solution before it reaches the end user, but what if you could do this validation before “manual “ UAT and in an automated manner?
This testing phase is different from all the others as it can be performed by actual software users or clients who check if the system is able to support their required tasks and if it is sufficient for business usage. UAT can be very challenging. It takes many testers to coordinate, require lots of pressure to get sign off from business users, and tests have to be properly documented for auditing.
UAT is still stuck with manual processes and although this was ok for small teams or in waterfall project management systems, it is not sufficient for today’s agile, and iterative release cycles. One of the main challenges that IT teams are facing in their effort to change the UAT process is how to get business users to use tools, knowing that most test management solutions are designed for professional testers and not business users.
Up to 80% of a test manager’s time during the UAT cycle is spent collecting data and creating daily reports!!
In major business projects, failures in UAT have dramatic impacts on the quality of the project, not to mention introduce serious risks in production.How can Validata simplify and accelerate your UAT?
Our UI testing approach gives us a great advantage as it has the ability to validate the UI of an app by running automated tests, against the full software stuck, cross browser and cross platforms, enabling ultimate customer experience. It also enables a combination of UI and backend testing for continuous monitoring and regression testing.With Validata being available in the cloud, dispersed teams can get real-time updates, without concerns about localization, file conversion errors, and different software versions. It can be accessed anywhere, anytime. Until now, Up to 50% of a key user’s time during a cycle is spent documenting the test executions. Because Validata comes with real time monitoring of the test progress, resources are focused on testing and not wasting time preparing reports.
Validata enables you to implement a testing process that can be replicated every time you need to perform a test and have a set of automated regression tests that could be executed every time you have a change in the system, saving you costs and time and accelerating the system validation and UAT process by 30%.
Check Validata ATS in order to accelerate the performance of your testing process!
