QA Manual Testing
Isolate and identify flaws in the design and implementation of a system
What is QA manual testing?
Meet your product expectations
QA manual testing is a type of software testing that typically involves a QA engineer manually going through an application to find bugs and verify that features are working as expected. Manual testers use specialized tools and techniques for managing and executing their tasks, often following test plans to ensure that no bug goes undetected in a production environment. Manual Testing can be run as part of a product development lifecycle or as an isolated process, once a software product is ready for testing.
Manual testing within a QA strategy
How does QA manual testing help?
When done correctly as part of the product development lifecycle, manual testers are included in several phases of development and test features at various stages, making their role extremely important in the successful production deployment of newly developed software. QA manual testing is a way to validate one or more requirements, and It is seen as a method of software quality testing that tries to replicate the user's actions and environment to test all potential path(s) through the software application.
Variables to consider
Understand product expectations
A quality assurance developer that’s undertaking QA manual testing should have a very clear idea of the the software product including the desired user experience of the core functionality, the demographics that the product is intended to serve, the hardware they will be using it on, and other variables that are critical to the successful testing of a new product.
Who is QA Manual Testing For?
QA manual testing is utilized across the board at many types of technology and services companies that use software products.
Companies evaluating existing product performance
Manual Testing is convenient for companies using both manual and automated quality assurance processes to ensure they’re able to rely on their software products. These companies often depend on their software to make critical decisions, and need to have confidence that the software is performing as expected whether it’s internally used or being used by thousands of users.
Companies at early development stages
Manual Testing can be especially useful for companies in the early development and beta stages of releasing a new application or product. Manual testing QA can be useful to ensure that quality standards are set and that someone with the necessary skill set is specifically devoted to testing and ensuring the quality standard.
QA Manual Testing Use Cases
What types of problems does manual testing QA solve and where can it be used?
Mobile Manual Testing
We use the manual testing process to ensure that mobile apps are compatible with various mobile devices and the latest operating systems. Manually testing for compatibility will ensure the functionality of an app on a variety of mobile devices versions (iPhone 7,8 ,XR, etc) allowing the intended audience and user base to utilize the features and functionality on the mobile application no matter what device and operating system they’re running. Our manual test team produces test reports on the mobile app’s performance and compatibility, documenting bugs across different environments and reproducing these bugs to allow a development team to fix them. Manual testing mobile applications once they are finished with development is essential to producing a reliable and consistent app for different users on a variety of devices.
Website and web application manual testing
Manual testing QA processes are also important for websites and web applications. Similar to testing mobile applications, websites and web applications can be run on different browsers, and viewed in different screen sizes. Manual QA is important to ensure consistent user experiences across screen sizes and functionality across browsers for your customer or user base. For example, bugs can be found in the latest version of safari for a web-application, but will be undetectable in other browsers and versions. Our manual qa team tests for consistency issues, as well as other issues that commonly are found in websites and applications including testing API’s, performance issues, forms, and other functionality that is essential to your users experience.
Desktop application Testing
Desktop applications also require manual QA testing. Desktop applications are different than both mobile applications and web-based applications meaning the present unique testing opportunities and respective issues with desktop application testing, our main concern is the end user’s experience and functionality across operating systems. Our manual testers use manual testing techniques to test both MacOS and Windows desktop applications, ensuring consistency across updates and reliability across hardware. By executing the software or application, they check that it works as intended, often using frameworks such as selenium to generate test cases to find bugs in the application and release software free from errors and bugs.
