QA / Testing
Software Quality Assurance Testing is an integral and critical phase of any Software Development Project.
Developers and Testers must ensure that newly developed applications, application enhancements, and new or
existing products meet functional and performance requirements and they are reliable and able to operate
consistently under peak loads. The risks of releasing a product that is not yet ready are greater now than
ever before because of the change in expectations and demands of end users.
Depending on what best fits an organization's size and business structure, organizations can vary considerably
in how they assign responsibility for QA and Testing. Sometimes they are the combined responsibility of one
group or individual. Other times companies will build project teams that include a mix of testers and developers
who work closely together, with overall QA processes monitored by project managers. However you assign
responsibility, the Celeris team will partner with you to supplement your Quality Assurance, Testing and
Configuration Management teams with highly qualified consultants.

Sample Project
Supply a senior QA Lead for a major healthcare company, the QA Lead is accountable for the test of technical
solutions for claims processing applications. The QA consultant will define and develop a testing lifecycle
strategy, develop project plan details and manage activities, establish and document test procedures, test
cases, defect tracking and resolution, and participate in test execution. Will work collaboratively with
the project team and key stakeholders to develop and define an overall system testing strategy and manage
execution of full system lifecycle testing. Investigate complicated performance and stability issues involving
a very large, sophisticated, and evolving code base. Create and maintain testing documentation (test strategy,
test cases, scripts, defect reports). Write, review and execute system tests (functional, regression, negative,
system integration, load testing).
