    BACKGROUND

    Please describe your company and your position there.

    I am the CTO of Front.Bend. Our company helps startups and IT companies create new applications.

    OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

    For what projects/services did your company hire UTOR?

    We wanted to connect with a QA partner who could help us test all our apps before market release. Our plan was to integrate UTOR’s QA engineers right into the development process.

    What were your goals for this project?

    Our main objective was to ensure that our platform works without issues. We didn’t want our users to experience any glitches while using our site. 
     

    SOLUTION

    How did you select this vendor?

    I found UTOR through their founder and selected them based on FB.

    Describe the project in detail.

    We worked on a few projects together. Two specific ones focused on a music player and an iOS app featuring GPS. In addition to application and platform testing, they helped us with verification.

    What was the team composition?

    The team from UTOR included two iOS developers, two backend developers, a project manager, a team lead, a UI/UX designer, and two QA specialists.
     

    RESULTS & FEEDBACK

    Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

    UTOR's primary deliverables were testing reports that came in the form of color-coded Google Spreadsheets. Each item is labeled with a headline, sorted by status, priority and issue type with a full set of validators to account for different variables. Every issue also lays out the expected and actual result, states the steps to reproduce the error, and links to a corresponding screenshot. On the second tab, there are parallel lists of questions with answers from UTOR. 

    At the end of our latest engagement, UTOR produced a detailed report on all the issues and improvements. In one example for an Android and iOS mobile app, they identified and fixed or closed 43 issues ranging in level of severity and priority. Three of these were areas for improvement, four items were critical, three were minor, and the rest were flagged as major issues. By category, they solved 31 functional concerns, two GUI flaws, and eight problems that had been impacting usability. 

    How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

    UTOR’s management performs at a high level. I understood the flow of our cooperation during each step of the project. Based solely on the applications we provided for testing, they returned with a detailed estimation before the project even started. 

    What did you find most impressive about this company?

    They provided us with not only QA testing, but also suggestions on how to improve our product. It was very important to us that they offered this advice. UTOR was extremely involved in our project and put in more effort than anyone could have expected.

    Are there any areas for improvement?

    Perfection has no limits.

    UTOR has helped us find more than 25 critical issues, which we’ve fixed to save our users from experiencing glitches.

    How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

    UTOR works through our Trello, creating tasks with either screenshots or videos and detailed descriptions of the bug they found. The assigned QA engineer is easy to communicate with via Slack and delivers good quality.

    What did you find most impressive about this company?

    Not only have they delivered what we asked for, but they’ve also provided countless suggestions to improve the app’s UX and technical performance. I really appreciate that.

    Are there any areas where they can improve?
