Once your software application is developed and before deploying it, you need to thoroughly check that the expected tasks are correctly executed. At TESSCO ltd functional testing determines the level at which the software meets the functional requirements. This can be as simple as a fast check (smoke test) to verify first level operational functions, or as detailed as verification on multiple test scenarios with validation of the results obtained

The software assurance quality professionals from TESSCO ltd have many years of experience in functional tests on software such as yours. Our pragmatic approach of functional tests includes the verification that the application or web site conforms to specifications and executes correctly the required functions. Moreover we execute a characteristic by characteristic verification of the functions using a large range of valid and invalid input data. This set of techniques will ensure on one hand that your software application will work with the quality level that you and your customer expect and on the other hand are the most efficient means to avoid risks of failure with software application deployment.

Do you envisage a merger or acquisition ?
Before proceeding with a merger or acquisition in the IT domain, and beyond the strictly financial aspects, a number of informations must be known about the software being developed or already developped.
These audits are mandatory to evaluate the level of future investment required to enhance the software application and its ability to adapt to your software in order to provide an integrated solution.

Our evaluations bear on :
Maintainability of the software to evaluate future maintenance costs
Portability of the software to determine the cost of porting it on other hardware or software platforms, other languages or other databases, interfaces...
Maturity of the software in terms of number of remaining defects
The capacity of the application to easily interface with another.

This set of analysis will enable you to value the company and its products at its real price and reduce the risks linked to any decision process.
