Client Profile
The client is a leading provider of advanced software tools and services that help healthcare organizations capture, classify, and manage accurate healthcare data. Built on a foundation of more than 20 years of clinical, financial, and administrative expertise, client products help ensure the quality of data, which drives an organization's ability to manage revenue, comply with regulations, improve the quality of patient care, and manage resources effectively.
 
Client Situation
The client’s Health Information System continuously added features to its range of products to offer value-added services to its customer base. The client wanted to have a proven process with an excellent Quality Assurance (QA) methodology that could meet all QA needs in a short span of time. The client wished to engage an offshore vendor for the QA testing of this platform for:

  • Functional regression testing by execution of existing scripts
  • Creation of manual test scripts in Test Director for enhancements to the system
  • Allowed flexible resourcing to meet fluctuating testing needs
  • Execution of test scripts on a combination of various browsers and OS as per the agreed Browser/OS compatibility matrix
  • Defect and test status reporting
  • Generation and execution of automation scripts on various browser and operating system combinations and reporting automation script/application defects
  • Enhancements to the automated test suite by the creation of new functional test libraries

The Testing Services Center was responsible for the Functional Testing of all 11 products in three test environments – client/server, mainframe, and AS400. Benefits of this service included:

  • Use of automated tools to ensure the reusability of test scripts and effective management throughout the application life cycle
  • Maintenance of high quality standards by an independent testing team
  • Flexible resourcing to meet fluctuating testing needs
  • Reduced project timelines as a result of increasing the team strength (20 new team members in a week) to kick-start the testing effort
