Some customers have an internal testing team, and we complement it with qualified personnel who get integrated to their processes and technology in a short time. This allows the client to gain productivity and flexibility, because they call us only when needed, without adding a fix cost to their payroll.

Some clients realize that they are loosing time and money because they are not performing testing, or because they are not doing it properly due to a lack of know-how and/or specialized infrastructure.
They usually make this finding after they repeatedly see that software development projects are very seldom finished on time, becoming more expensive than planned. And that maintenance becomes a headache in terms of complexity, adaptability, and cost (remember that maintenance is one of the longest and most expensive development phases).
Sometimes, in the early stages of a project, the development team realizes that a software component is not behaving well, but nobody planned any testing activities (which would allow the assessment of the size of the problem), or time for corrections, because they tried to save money.
At the end, they may have not invested in testing, but they certainly did not save money at all, because they finished late and with a product that requires expensive maintenance.

During the last years, taking advantage of our experience in software testing, we have become the testing department of several medium enterprises with operations in Mexico, USA, and/or India.
They have hired us to gain a specialized strategic partner, committed to detect the most harmful anomalies as soon as they are introduced in the development phases, saving time, money and headaches for them.

The process we have been following is:

1. (When needed) A senior tester from our company visits the client’s facilities to plan, to assimilate his technology and processes, and to set and launch the execution and supervision processes.
During this time, the testing infrastructure and organization is setup in Guadalajara, and testing starts here.

2. At the planned date, the senior tester returns to Guadalajara to head locally the testing team.

3. Testing operations stabilize, in terms of communication and productivity.

4. A phase of continuous improvement starts, adding more value to our customers (for example, by introducing testing activities in earlier development phases).

This service has helped our clients remain flexible, competitive and focused in their core-businesses.
