Verification and Validation

MPS eServices undertakes end-to-end testing of applications, both developed in house as well as an independent testing service offering:
  Functional – Involves testing the product for its conformance to the intended features, functionality and usability.
  Load – Involves testing the product for proper performance in high load and stress conditions.
  Regression – Regression test allows a consistent, repeatable validation of each new release of a product or web site. Such testing ensures reported product defects have been corrected for each new release and that no new quality problems were introduced in the maintenance process.
  Compatibility – Ensures compatibility of an application or web site with different browsers, operating systems, and hardware platforms.
  Localization – Our localization testing services are designed to guarantee that the localized version is linguistically accurate and that it runs correctly on the target platform.
  Performance – Performance testing is particularly useful to identify performance bottlenecks in high hit-rate Web sites.
  GUI – Validation of requirements for being visually accurate, elements that are included for conformance to standards and requirements include buttons, dropdowns, text boxes, etc.
  Web site – Involves verification to conformance to W3C standards, download time, check for broken links, correct navigation, etc.
  Migration – As the company migrates from one platform or operating system to another, it needs assurance that the applications, infrastructure, and data will make the transition intact.
