Software Testing for Startups

Why startups need software testing?

Startup companies are built on ideas, agility and with a drive to solve real-world problems. But with the development cycles speed and the budget constraints, testing is often taken as a backseat-resulting in products that do not meet the expectations of the users or often fail to scale under growing demand.

What could happen if software testing is ignored

  • Once the product is launched there can be critical bugs and functionality issues
  • Vulnerabilities in security that expose user data
  • Performance bottlenecks in times of high traffic
  • Poor user experiences that lead to low customer retention
  • Expensive bug fixes that could have been avoided

Implementation of software testing at early stage not only ensures quality at the same time saves cost, time and effort in the long run-this helps the start up companies gain trust of the customers and achieve faster product market fit.

Common challenges that startup companies face

Gaps in startup software requirements

Gaps in requirements

Startups often work with product ideas that are evolving and incomplete requirements, because of this gap is created between what that is planned and built.If the product is not validated properly, it can lead to

  1. Unclear specifications of features
  2. Functionality errors across different modules
  3. Last minute changes that can cause instability in system

How can Ascentiq solutions help: We collaborate with your team members to validate requirements through proper requirement analysis and traceability testing. Our expert team work to identify gaps at early stage of testing and create detailed test cases ensuring your software aligns with the goals of your business.

Flawed architecture and scalability issues in startups

Flawed architecture and scalability issues

When there is a rush to launch a minimum viable product, many start up companies overlook the architecture design of the software which results in

  1. Degradation of performance with increased number of users
  2. Lack of scalability for future growth
  3. Vulnerabilities of security from poor integrations

How Ascentiq Solutions Helps: Our QA engineers perform testing at architecture-level to evaluate the performance, scalability and security of the application. The architectural flaws are identified at early stage helping to build a software that can scale seamlessly with the growth of your software.

QA Expertise

Limited QA Expertise and resources

Most of the start up companies have teams that focus on development rather than testing. Without a dedicated testing team, most of the important defects often go unnoticed until after they are launched.

How Ascentiq Solutions Helps: We at Ascentiq solutions act like an extended arm for QA , we offer on-demand testing services with QA engineers, who are expertise in functional testing to automation testing. We bring comprehensive testing expertise without the expensive costs that would otherwise be charged by an in-house testing team.

Time and Budget Constraints for startups

Time and Budget Constraints

Startup companies often work with tight budgets and timelines, which makes it difficult to rely on advanced infrastructure and tools. This results in quality getting compromised.

How Ascentiq Solutions Helps:
We at Ascentiq solutions provide cost effective services and pay as you go testing services which would fit within your budget. Our testing infrastructure is cloud based and eliminates the need for costly hardware and tools while making sure of high quality testing outcomes.

Manual Testing

Manual Testing Dependency

Manual testing often takes a long time and is prone to human errors, especially when there is a requirement for frequent releases. However when automation testing needs to be set up it requires to be done from scratch and does need both time and technical expertise.

How Ascentiq Solutions Helps:

Our experts at Ascentiq solutions implement test automation frameworks and use tools like Selenium, Appium and JMeter to automate the test cases, which in turn speeds up the testing cycles, reduces human errors and to ensure consistent quality of the product.
