engagement description

Testware provided test planning, functional testing, and test automation services to this client for two years.

The client did not have test automation expertise in-house and retained Testware primarily to select, implement and maintain an automated testing system. On a secondary basis, Testware also helped out with test planning and manual test execution as needed.

All testing services were performed at the client's site.
