Regression

Introduction

Delving into details

KiwiQA’s regression testing approach is designed to thoroughly validate the application’s behaviour after modifications, enhancements, or fixes. We employ manual and automated testing techniques to cover all critical functionalities and test scenarios. Our testers meticulously execute test cases, compare results against expected outcomes, and identify inconsistencies.

Delving into details

No ‘fresh’ surprise

“Does everything still work as expected?” we always ask ourselves. A “regression” is a problem or bug that a fresh release causes in another area of the system; hence, “regression testing.”

Perfect blend

Retesting the software manually after modifications have been made in manual regression testing. On the other hand, automated regression testing retests the product automatically using software tools. We use a combination of them so that we get all the bugs.

Thorough testing

Instead of testing only at the end, we conduct continuous testing, which involves testing through the development process. This strategy may prevent regression testing from becoming a bottleneck and identify problems early.

How KiwiQA makes a difference

Bringing your platform to life

At KiwiQA, we understand the critical role regression testing plays in ensuring the stability and reliability of software applications. With our comprehensive regression testing services, we go above and beyond to make a significant difference for our clients. Here's how:

Bringing your platform to life

We identify potential areas of impact caused by new feature additions, bug fixes, or changes, ensuring comprehensive test coverage. By leaving no stone unturned, we minimise the risk of undetected defects and ensure the overall quality of your software.

We recognise the importance of quick turnaround times without compromising quality. Our regression testing experts leverage extensive experience and expertise to streamline the testing process.

Our outsource regression testing services are tailored to meet the specific needs of your application, allowing for scalability and flexibility. We adapt our testing strategy to accommodate changes in your software, ensuring that regression testing seamlessly integrates into your development process.

Our offering

Heaps of options to choose from

We recognise the need for flexibility and scalability in regression testing. Our teams can quickly ramp up resources and adapt to changing project requirements, ensuring that regression testing efforts align with the evolving needs of the software application.

Functional Regression Testing

This is intended to figure out the impact of the new changes in the software and to ensure the functionalities do not get affected.

Automation Regression Testing

For maximizing the coverage of the test, automation testing is a great alternative that not only makes the test cases easy to manage, but all the more usable.

Partial Regression Testing

When we only need to check the newly implemented code, partial testing is our go-to testing method. This is done to test the compatibility of the new code with the existing one.

Unit Regression Testing

Retesting the specific units of code helps ensuring any changes in the codebase do not introduce any regressions or unintended side effects.

Complete Testing

Once all changes have been made to the software, we check the features and functionalities again to ensure they work as intended.

Selective Regression Testing

We also test subsets of test cases determined through a risk-based approach and cases that are most likely to be affected by changes or have a higher likelihood of containing potential regressions.

Methodology

Methodologies that work

It's important to note that regression testing should be performed at regular intervals, especially after significant changes or updates to the software. The methodology can be enhanced by incorporating automation techniques, prioritising test cases based on risk factors, or leveraging test management tools to streamline the regression testing process.

  • Coverage Analysis: Evaluate the existing test suite to assess its coverage of features and functionalities
  • Risk-based Approach: Employ a risk-based strategy to concentrate regression testing efforts on areas that are more susceptible to defects
  • Test Suite Optimization: Streamline the test suite by removing redundant or obsolete test cases
  • Replicating Production Environment: Create a controlled and stable test environment that mirrors the production setup as closely as possible
  • Isolation: Isolate the test environment to prevent interference from external factors
  • Automated Environment Provisioning: Explore automation tools and techniques to streamline the setup and teardown of the test environment
  • Regression Test Automation: Implement test automation to execute the test cases efficiently and consistently
  • Expected Outcomes: Compare the actual results with the baseline to identify any discrepancies or regressions
  • Defect Management: Utilizing reliable defect tracking system to log and manage identified defects
  • Defect Verification: Conducting retesting to ensure that the corrections have effectively resolved the reported issues
  • Testing Report: Generate a comprehensive regression testing report that provides an overview of the entire testing cycle.
  • Test Cycle Closure: Conducting a formal test cycle closure meeting to review the regression testing process

AI Transformation Road Map

Bringing your platform to life

Regression testing should be regularly reviewed and improved depending on user input, technology developments, and new AI trends. Our testing focuses on ongoing learning and development, both for the AI models and the broader processes for regression testing.

1

Data Gathering and Preparation

Gathering and preparing pertinent data forms the basis of a roadmap for AI transformation that includes regression testing. Training AI models capable of comprehending and foreseeing regression difficulties is made possible by proper data preparation.

2

Development and Training of AI Models

Using the supplied dataset, we train the models and improve their recall, accuracy, and precision. We work with regression testing experts to ensure that the AI models accurately depict the complexities and complexity of the system’s regression behaviour.

3

Prioritisation and Optimisation

We examine historical data and AI predictions to determine which test cases are the most important. With this strategy, testing resources can be allocated more effectively, with an emphasis placed on system components that are more prone to experience regression problems.

4

Analysis and Prediction of Test Outcomes

KiwiQA uses AI models to analyse the outcomes of regression tests and anticipates potential regression problems. We analyse test execution data, such as pass/fail results, logs, and performance metrics, to spot trends and abnormalities.

Delivering remarkable changes

We deliver outcomes that matter

Even a mild modification could significantly change the overall platform experience and require considerable efforts to reverse.

Issue Detection

Issue Detection

KiwiQA’s regression testing aims to identify any issues, bugs, or defects. By executing a comprehensive set of test cases, including new and existing functionalities, KiwiQA helps ensure that the software performs as desired and that any regressions are identified and documented.
