BEST PRACTICES

• The test conditions are developed simultaneously while the code is being developed which saves significant amount of time and effort

• A comprehensive software inspection is done to identify defects in the product

• The software product is implemented on multiple platforms to ensure that it performs equally well on each of them. Modifications are sometimes needed for running the product on some of the platforms

• Automated testing is conducted wherever possible

• Automation test scenarios are identified and converted in to scripts that are run on every build without manual intervention to ensure that the build is in testable state.
