Testing Strategies and Frameworks
Purpose
To test individual components or functions for correctness.
To ensure that different modules or services work together as intended.
To test the application against its functional requirements.
Framework
We use Jest for JavaScript/TypeScript and PyTest for Python.
Mocha for JavaScript/TypeScript integration tests, and TestCafe for end-to-end integration.
Selenium for web applications, Appium for mobile apps.
Approach
Write tests for all new code and critical legacy code.
Perform Mocking and Stubbing where necessary.
Continuous integration (CI) to run tests on every commit.
Test API integrations, database connectivity, and inter-module interactions.
Use test environments that mimic production settings.
Create test cases based on user stories and use cases.
Perform automated and manual testing for key functionalities.
Purpose
To ensure the application performs well under expected load.
To identify vulnerabilities in the application.
To ensure the application is user-friendly and intuitive.
Framework
Apache JMeter and LoadRunner.
OWASP ZAP for web vulnerability scanning, and Fortify for static code analysis.
-
Approach
Conduct load testing, stress testing, and spike testing.
Monitor system performance under different load conditions.
Perform regular security audits and penetration testing.
Check for common vulnerabilities like SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, etc.
Conduct user testing sessions.
Gather feedback from beta testers and incorporate it into development.
Tools
Jenkins for CI/CD, Docker for containerization.
-
Purpose
-
To ensure the application is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities.
Framework
-
Axe-core for automated accessibility tests.
Approach
Implement continuous testing in the CI/CD pipeline.
Automate deployment processes to maintain a consistent and stable production environment.
Adhere to WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines).
Perform manual and automated accessibility checks.
