2. Top 10 Best Practices in Quality Assurance in
Software Testing
• Almost every organisation today offers some type of software whether it’s an online catalogue,
mobile banking, online check-in tool, etc. If you are a company with any level of digital footprint, you
realise that new updates have become regular and require faster roll-out.
• Besides, it is crucial to provide a consistent app or software experience with seamless interactions
across devices. Today, every single digital experience is a reflection of your brand. Therefore, quality
assurance or QA in software testing should be an integral part of your overall testing strategy.

3. Quality Assurance (QA) ensures consistent improvement and maintenance of processes
so that a software meets all quality requirements from both technology and business
perspectives.
• The recent trend of work from home has increased the likelihood of cyber-attacks. QA in software
testing ensures that these and other types of vulnerabilities are flushed out before they reach
production. QA as a process spans the entire life cycle of the development of application, program or
software.
The Industry-Proven Best Practices of QA
• The process of QA is an integral one involving various test cases, test scenarios, and other software
testing procedures. Create well-stated objectives and goals, then get started in a secure testing
environment.
• Here are top ten best practices to improve your quality assurance or QA software testing.

4. • Defining short-term goals and planning the implementation of sprints allows the QA team to be
constantly involved and improve the end result.
1. Plan your testing procedures.
• Test automation for repetitive tasks that require minimal manual intervention increases speed,
accuracy, and increased productivity in your QA process.
2. Employ automated testing.
• It means testing earlier in the software development process to find and prevent defects early. It can
also be added here that testing throughout the process helps in tackling errors as you go.
3. Shift Left practice.

5. • For instance, start with unit testing, then smoke testing, followed by regression testing, non-
functional testing and finally, ending with user acceptance testing to get the right results. It will allow
your QA team to test all the test cases thoroughly.
4. Multi-directional testing strategy for quicker and better analysis.
• It allows your team to quickly obtain a build with the most recent additions or fixes. The technique
of continuous integration testing automatically starts when any change is made to the codebase.
Continuous deployment pushes changes to a staging or production system and simultaneously
activates the integration testing. These two practices taken together quicken the delivery.
5. Use the benefit from continuous integration and continuous deployment.

6. • Embed security-related test cases as part of the shift left testing strategy. Security testing is about
loopholes and vulnerabilities, hence, different from performance testing.
6. Introduce security into software quality with a separate team early on.
• It removes ambiguity and makes for detailed reports that can be referred for making training
material, configuration documents, and manuals.
7. Document all observations and notes.
• Solved problems and information from end-users when gathered properly can optimise your QA
system and software delivery. It provides context to issues and can improve productivity by
simulating the user’s perspective during testing.
8. Let end-user feedback drive continuous improvements in your QA strategy.

7. • Test automation should be complemented with human skills and intuition. In terms of user interface
and user experience, a number of uncontrollable factors necessitate human skills should be part of
an effective QA strategy.
9. Practice mindful human intervention.
• Automation is all about increased efficiencies, therefore, take into account factors like test
maintenance, required execution timing, and avoidance of waste processes.
10. Embrace test automation with care.
All these measures are a way of keeping the brand reputation and the customer view of software quality
at the forefront. All QA activities are geared towards ensuring the highest possible quality of your
software product or service and great user experience for your customers.

8. Automated Testing in QA
• Testing at every stage of the application or software or program development process is an integral
part of operation today and here, test automation is key to success. The right automation strategy
and tools can save a lot of resources.
• However, sometimes finding unique end-user bugs is difficult with automation, via predefined test
cases. QA professionals provide that human touch to identify and solve tricky bugs. On the other
hand, developers and testers need to pour in their motivation towards creating new features, and
delivering higher-quality software. Using automated testing wherever they can, they get back
valuable time for these pursuits.

9. • Scripting a good enterprise-level automation that can be scaled is all it requires. In fact, a lot of highly
repeatable tests with determinant outcomes can be safely automated. This will contribute to getting
your product to market on time and under budget.

10. What Every Beginner Should Know About Testing Approach
• The best quality assurance testing practices should improve the overall quality of the software while
aiming continuous monitoring. There are multiple quality management tricks, finding the right one is
the key. Any QA team should ensure that they meet all the requirements and the developed
software product is of higher quality.
• Calidad InfoTech can help you to draft a test strategy, and manage the quality standard. We perform
continuous testing and quality control measures to ensure that the product expectations are met
from the end-user’s perspective. We understand that the idea is to find the right combination of QA
strategies that fit into your process, so that your product is in full compliance with the business
objectives.
