ERP Testing

Hexaware’s ERP domain leadership provides the impetus for efficient testing across HR, Financials, CRM, Supply Chain Management and Campus Solutions. A dedicated ERP Testing Center of Excellence (TCoE) that facilitates competency building, reusable asset creation, ready-to-use solutions and frameworks that adds value to customers right from day one of the engagement. The large number of success stories reinforces the fact that Hexaware’s Quality Assurance and Testing Services (QATS) is the best fit for ERP testing.

Packaged Application Testing

Hexaware has vase experience in ERP implementation, testing, maintenance and upgrades around the world which is the cornerstone of our packaged application testing methodology that encompasses manual, automation and performance testing. Most of the implementation / upgrade testing involve data migration testing and parallel testing. Hexaware Quality Assurance and Testing Services division (QATS) has come up with flagship tool like “HexCompare” that compares databases/files/reports across applications/ versions during upgrades or implementations as well as jump start kits and accelerators for packaged applications that help accelerate the testing process.

Product Testing

Understanding the core challenges involved in product testing enable us to provide a product testing solution that is versatile enough to facilitate high quality standards as also be flexible enough to test multiple customisations and versions. Our proprietary “Product Testing” approach combines process, domain and technology to accelerate time to market, reduce defect leakage, reduce cycle time and increase customer satisfaction. In addition, a proprietary “Component based automation framework” aids in attaining high usability and maintainability of test scripts.

Web Testing

Our comprehensive web testing methodology includes the following test approaches

• Functional Testing
• Test Automation
• Compatibility Testing
• Accessibility Testing
• Usability Testing
• Globalisation / Localisation testing
• Multi-Lingual Testing

Performance Testing

Our “E-commerce Reliability Check” with around 800 configuration settings is a onetime activity that helps in evaluating application reliability on the basis of functionality testing, compatibility testing and performance testing. “HexEconomy” a performance test model will be employed to understand the maximum number of users the application can sustain.

Service Oriented Architecture Testing (SOA)

To ensure services meet SLA’s and scale up in production, Hexaware Quality Assurance and Testing services division has developed an automated SOA testing framework called HexSOA Test Model and this test model was developed based on the challenges faced, lessons learnt and best practices derived from its previous SOA Testing assignments.

Using this framework, organisations can perform both unit tests for fine grained “atomic” services as well as integration tests loosely coupled coarse grained business services that orchestrate the granular services. SOA development teams can automatically execute the service’s original set of test cases to ensure quality immediately as peripheral changes are continually being made.

Legacy Application – Quality Optimisation

Hexaware Quality Assurance and Testing services division (QATS) has evolved an innovative “Reverse Engineering by Q Patterns” methodology where domain experts and test analysts would employ a “testers” view to the application and understand the functionality in terms of usage scenarios, interfaces, validation points, expected output and data requirements.

A bundled service is provided where the testing team will be responsible for coming up with functional specifications (FS) for the legacy application and arrive at a regression test suite using FS as a baseline document. The documented functional specifications can be used for change impact analysis and re-engineering project design as the project proceeds.

Mainframe Testing

We have a dedicated Mainframe Testing Center of Excellence (TCoE) that focuses on the guidelines, frameworks and methodologies specific to mainframe testing and creates reusable assets that can be taken forward. We provide value added services in legacy application upkeep such as

• Cobol Migration (Elimination of unsupported versions)
• LE runtime conversions
• CPU Optimisation Services
• System Performance Management
• Application Performance Management
• Database Migration
• Database Upgrade
• Data Scrambling and Shrinking
• Test Data and Regression bed creation
• Multi environment JCL set up
• Utility conversions like FileAid to SyncSort, etc

Performance Engineering

We review the business processes, usage patterns, system architecture, and functionality which make up the application. A high-level analysis is conducted to determine which business processes will have the greatest impact upon the end-to-end application architecture. The business process candidates will then be narrowed down to those utilised for the performance test.

Localisation / Globalisation Testing

With many acquisitions and mergers, globalisation of the system is necessary for the system to work in sync. We ensure the readiness for localisation and globalisation.

BI Testing

Vista Readiness Kit

Networked computer environments typically have hundreds of applications installed and testing in such environments which can get complex because of the following reasons

• Applications are distributed across several service lines
• Applications are of different types (Desktop, Web etc.)
• Multiple versions of the same application are available
• Multiple updates of a single application version are available
• Dependency while integrating with 3rd party applications

The problems resulting from these incompatibilities can range from losing functionality in a single application to critical faults resulting in a showstopper.

Hexaware has pioneered the art of testing large number of applications in Microsoft Vista OS by using its Vista Readiness Kit. The Vista Readiness Kit is a successful and proven solution which will pull out Vista compatibility related issues from an application in an efficient way. We also assist clients in infrastructure assessment and recommendations for Vista readiness of their hardware and other devices
