Quality Assurance and Test Automation

Our certified engineers tailor testing services to ensure secure, scalable, and reliable fintech performance.

Testing services

Quality assurance is an integral part of software development that ensures software products’ reliability, functionality, and performance. There are various types of testing that we offer. Here’s how you can benefit from each of them.

#1. Functional testing

Functional testing ensures the product meets its functionality requirements, providing assurance that every aspect of your system does exactly what it should.

Why choose us?

We make businesses flow
  • We offer a variety of testing practices that support the validation of intended-quality financial models and algorithms.
  • We verify the financial logic of your business applications works perfectly on a variety of different instrument types and complex derivatives.
  • We ensure everything from simple order placement to extensive trade strategy management will work exactly how you want it to.
We enhance risk management

Drawing on our engineers’ extensive experience, we help you identify potential points of failure and assess risks.

From web application features prone to poor user experience to server-side calculations that may not cover complex trading scenarios, our QA team's analytics make it easier to manage and address issues specific to your project.

We help with services integration

With the help of functional testing, we ensure that the services necessary for smooth operation are integrated correctly and work seamlessly together. Some examples include:

  • AWS host integration to support 24/7 trading in highly volatile markets
  • CRM system integration for efficient client management
  • Integration of existing services with new ones, such as connecting a powerful backend trading engine to a newly developed web interface that must maintain pre-existing functionality

#2. Testing automation

Whether you are automating tests for internal backend APIs, external integration interfaces, or complex multi-platform GUIs, our ISTQB-certified engineers apply best practices tailored to your specific needs.

#3. Performance testing

Never miss a quote because your software was not tested for bottlenecks under high user load. At Devexperts, we provide performance testing services to ensure your system remains stable and responsive even during peak trading sessions.

Ensure your system can withstand the load

Work stability is a key priority for any high-load system. With our support, you can be confident that your hardware and system design can handle the estimated number of transactions and users, ensuring smooth operation for your clients.

Stress mission-critical services first

Devexperts solutions allow you to review priorities when and if your system starts experiencing an unusual influx of users or simultaneous operations. We will help you analyze which services fail first under stress and suggest preemptive strategies to avoid such scenarios in the production environment.

Secure enough capacity

Once your business starts to grow rapidly, it may be too late to make critical adjustments. Let us test your system in advance so you know exactly how much additional load it can handle without failure. This approach allows you to plan business expansions with confidence.

Digital volumes only increase

You’ve just achieved the stable production release that all of your team has been eagerly waiting for. Operations flow successfully and the amount of information on executed trades and booked orders rapidly piles up. With thorough testing, you will know how your environment reacts to large data loads so your system doesn’t slow you down at critical moments.

Shift-left paradigm

Shift-left is based on the principle that testing should begin as early as possible in the development process. However, it involves more than simply inviting testers to review designs and requirements. We propose shaping your test automation to be forward-thinking by:

  • Predicting shortages in hardware resources
  • Reducing false positives in tests through improved test design
  • Enhancing test infrastructure to eliminate issues such as internet connectivity problems, unexpected software updates, and other disruptions.

End-to-end testing

End-to-end (E2E) testing implies that a system is complete and ready for integration with other services. E2E testing verifies system readiness against real-world use cases with the support of various external integrations such as a company’s CRM.

No trading application exists in a bubble. A web terminal cannot operate alone when it is not supported by an integrated database, proper network connectivity, non-conflicting hardware, and so on. The services we provide as part of our E2E solution aim to create a customized QA process that supports the application, not as an individual node, but as a unified entity of various subsystems.
