Inadequate Testing

Introduction

Any level of software development must include software testing. The more complicated the program, the more time and money must be invested to ensure that bugs are found and fixed. There are frequently hundreds of flaws in software or systems when they are installed and released. Poor performance and a significant time loss for both the client and the software development company are the outcomes. Team leads and managers must resolve various problems that are inherent in software testing in order to prevent these issues.

Risks of inadequate testing

Loss of money

Bugs in software should be fixed immediately. During pre-product launch testing, the majority of QA experts use agile or nonstop testing to identify flaws and implement prompt solutions. After the product has been developed, it costs money to address bugs, which results in longer workdays, more downtime, and decreased productivity. As there are more opportunities to reveal defects, the cost of correcting them rises.

Decrease customer satisfaction

Software customers have specific expectations for the products they use; they expect them to operate quickly, function correctly, and protect their private data. By ensuring that the product is based on extensive testing with a skillful and nonstop technique during the formative stages, it is possible to keep people happy.

Company loses reputation

A single bad experience has a progressively growing impact. After a bad experience, a customer is not only less likely to use the product in the future, but they are also likely to have a unfavorable opinion of the company as a whole. As the bad reviews increase, so does the bad reputation of the company backing the product.

Review and Test the code

The first testing is done in GitHub environment. A developer is checking the pull request from another team member. He can comment the code and make some tests before it is merged with the main branch. For more information about branches, pull requests and testing check Source Control documentation within the Process Control tab.

User Testing

The second testing is done by the users when the product is finished from the developers. User testing is the practice of observing how a product (such as a mobile website prototype) is used by actual users. The "user test" consists of a series of scenarios, tasks, and questions, and the user's device's screen is recorded for further analysis.
