BetterQA’s team, consisting of five specialists, was integrated into our projects. Their roles were strategically divided to cover all aspects of our QA needs: one resource focused on API automation testing, two on web automation testing, one on mobile automation testing, and another on manual QA.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

• Increased Test Coverage: Implementation of comprehensive automation testing across APIs, web, and mobile platforms led to an increase in test coverage. This can be quantified by a significant percentage increase in the number of test scenarios covered before and after BetterQA's involvement. 
• Reduction in Bug Escapes: A notable reduction in the number of critical bugs found in production post-release, suggesting an improvement in the early detection and resolution of potential issues. This could be measured by comparing the number of production bugs reported before and after the project commencement. 
• Improved Release Cycles: Accelerated release cycles due to efficient QA processes, resulting in a measurable decrease in the time from development to deployment. This could be represented by a reduced number of days or weeks in the release cycle. 
• Enhanced Software Quality: Improvement in the quality of software can be indicated by a lower defect density, which is the number of defects detected per thousand lines of code or per functional unit. 
• Customer Satisfaction Scores: Improvement in client or user satisfaction, measured through surveys or feedback tools, indicating better software usability, performance, and reliability after BetterQA's involvement. 
• Cost Savings: Reduction in overall project costs associated with bug fixes, especially in the production environment. This can be quantified by comparing the cost of post-release bug fixes before and after the QA interventions. 
• Efficiency in Issue Resolution: Improved efficiency in resolving issues during testing phases, demonstrated by a reduction in the average time taken to resolve defects identified during testing.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Eyeware was developing multiple desktop and iOS eye-tracking applications. These applications would require careful testing and validation of the feature sets to ensure it would work as expected, but that it would also be a robust application given the large target systems. BetterQA helped by understanding the applications and their intended purpose and to ensure their reliability by doing careful testing with a wide range of permutations in terms of hardware, operating system and user behavior. 

Given BetterQA got well acquianted with our software, they also provided support on creating a knowledge base which users could refer to when they would have issues with the application.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

A tangible but not measurable outcome was the test plan. Otherwise, the main measure was the speed in which we became able to close planned tickets, and to find and solve open bugs. We were using Atlassian's Jira for ticket management and the process became quite streamlined. This project became critical for us to deliver a high quality product.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

At first, a project manager was involved to oversee the progress. However, the main person we were working with quickly adopted our processes and we were able to continue directly with him, and only needed a brief follow up from the manager on occasion. The deliveries were timely and what was most useful is that this person became almost a team member that was simply delivering on their responsibilities.
