Most vital
Outsourcing Considerations

2. Introduction

decision rather than just another way to cut
costs.
• Outsourcing QA has many benefits to companies
who are in search of improving the quality of
their applications, reduce business risk through
rigorous testing and enhance their product.
• Many companies outsource QA and testing, and
if you are searching for a competent company
then this presentation will help you immensely.

3. #1 Engagement Plans
Selecting an engagement Plan is a crucial aspect of outsourcing. This process
involves several factors, including the extend to which the outsourcing should be
done, the geographical location of the outsourcing company and the cost.

4. Incremental Plan
Organizations can mitigate risks involved with
outsourcing by dividing the whole QA testing into small,
more manageable projects that they outsource to service
providers. As and when you feel that you are getting the
results, you can then totally outsource the whole QA of
your product.

5. Total Outsourcing
In this plan, multiple projects and programs
running in the clients organization are
outsourced to a service provider. Here
sometimes a department is also outsourced for
better results and rigorous QA and software
testing

6. #2 Service Level Agreements (SLAs)
The SLAs should feature the minimum level of services to be provided by the
outsourcing company. The service they provide should be measurable and have no
ambiguity. The SLA should include the following:
SLAs
Timely
Delivery
Client
Satisfaction
Regular
Reporting
Quantifiable
Results
Sensitivity

7. #3 Mobilize Quickly
After you have selected the service provider their will be a
time where setting up communication protocol with the
client, defining work breakdown structure, sharing
standard templates and other similar activities will take
place. Don’t waste valuable time and mobilize quickly for
the best results.

8. #4 Consider 3rd Party Services
Relying on a single service provider alone can result in a
disaster, you should employ another QA testing service
provider for the best results.

9. #5 Seamless Communication
Choose only those Outsourcing providers who
facilitate seamless communication. As
communication is considered a key obstacle in
outsourcing, service providers should maintain
effective channels and points of contact (POC) open
to clients at all times.

10. #6 Flexibility and Scalability
QA and testing outsourcing services demands a degree of
flexibility and scalability to help ensure variations in scope and
timescales. Some of the scenarios where flexibility is required are
as follows:
• New or upgraded systems require revised testing commitments
• More releases require more testing phases
• Augmented levels of system or data incorporation necessitates
wider scope and coverage in testing
• Regression test demands will grow as systems are developed
• Performance and load test and other special tests may place
demands on the service
