How to integrate independent QA Testing to Shorten Development Cycles ? 

In today's world where each company wants to bring out the best quality product in quick time, it is imperative that QA is left behind. Earlier what the stakeholders did was rely more on the development team to develop good quality product without spending much with QA. With the industry evolving and looking at the different market trends, now the companies are equally focusing on QA Testing and considering them in par with the development team.

The following are few of the reasons which Independent QA Testing companies does to shorten the Development Cycles:-

a) With agile methodologies, the developers and QA can work in tandom thus giving more freedom to the developers to focus on their area of expertise.

b) Easy ramp up as and when required. There are cases where there is a tight schedule. With independent QA Testing companies and the specialization that they have, ramp up can be done in no time.

c) Different eye which helps the development team in following the process which may shorten their development cycle.

Offshore testing has proved to be better in terms of quality output during short testing lifecycles. This allows the developers as well as quality engineers to concentrate on their respective domains. As developers does not have to bother about executing set of test cases and at the same time quality engineers can plan their testing plan. Also, development and testing cycles can be performed in parallel. This improves the quality of the product as well as the productivity increases.

Yes, the success of offshore software testing relies on clear communication. Communication should be regular using a variety of methods such as emails, web meetings, video and teleconferencing. It becomes all the very important for an offshore team to provide the right information at the right time and also to commute that information properly by writing effective bug reports that have all the information needed by the developer related to that bug. It is also very important to establish some kind of bonds with the remote team members as any type of friendly, personal interaction or relationship between onshore and offshore teams goes a very long way in resolving potential tension.

Communication is a vital factor in Offshore Software Testing. Communication is absolutely necessary in Offshore Software Testing Success. The more clear communication the more is the impact on the developers to fix the issues. Moreover, clear communication makes it easy for the developers to drill down the issues and fix them accordingly.

In software testing communication is very important and effective factor. Communication between developer, stake holder and tester is the key to the successful release of the software. All the three parties should be pretty clear in their communication so that they can understand the motive of each other categorically. In offshore testing case communication becomes more important as the tester has to explain their bug findings to the developer very clearly so that the developer can fix it without any hassle and confusing. Bug should be report to the developer by offshore testing team in a candid way and all steps should be clear to grasp the issue extensively.
