Types of manual testing we provide

Any type of testing can be done manually. If you have a small project where automated testing will end up being a waste of time and money, our manual testing company will perform all the needed tests manually. Some types of testing can only be performed manually, regardless of the project size. They include:

Exploratory testing

By exploring the app without pre-designed requirements we detect issues outside of the testing scope and learn about the application along the way. With exploratory testing, you don't need to undergo a long and planned testing approach. You can quickly jump to execution.

Usability testing

The goal of usability testing is to evaluate how easy it is for users to interact with your product. To carry out usability testing we involve a real user and a QA manager who acts as an observer. The insights from usability testing help you improve user experience.

User acceptance testing

Once the functional and regression tests are completed, right before the software goes live, we conduct user acceptance testing to verify if all the business requirements are fulfilled. The goal of this type of testing is to make sure your solution works for the user.

Localization testing

If you're planning to target global markets, we will make sure your app's content is adaptable to every region of your target audience. We verify if test date and time formats, currency, color schemes, symbols, icons, language, and graphics are customized for each region.

Manual testing for web and mobile applications

Whether you're building iOS, Android, cross-platform, or web app you can rely on us for manual software testing services of high quality.

Manual mobile testing

Mobile apps with their touch screen user interfaces require manual testing methods to make sure they are comfortable for users. We provide manual mobile testing services to increase the quality of iOS or Android apps build for smartphones and tablets.

Manual testing of a web application

Web applications typically have lots of variable factors. Unlike Selenium code, we can easily change manual tests to verify as many varieties as possible. Functional, compatibility, usability – we perform all the needed tests to ensure your app's quality.

FAQ

Manual vs automated testing – which one is better?

Automation testing reduces the time and cost of software testing in the long term. With automated scripts, you can perform a sequence of steps faster compared to performing them manually. We run these tests at night and get the results in the morning. However, the time and costs you save with automation testing you need to spend on the software needed to run those tests. Automated testing still requires humans to configure the test program and interpret the test results.
Manual testing is cheaper to execute and allows for human observation which is important to ensure the great customer experience. There are cases when manual testing is the only option:
- If the product requirements often change, automation testing will be irrelevant.
- Rarely used testing scenarios are faster to verify manually.
- User acceptance, usability, and exploratory testing are the types of testing that can only be done by humans.

What is a test case example for manual testing?

For example, when testing login functionality, a test case example looks something like that:
Test Title: Test the login functionality in a mobile application
Description: Verify login with valid username and password
Post-conditions: User is validated with the database and successfully logs in to the account.
Steps: 1) Navigate to login page 2) Insert a valid username 3) Insert a valid password 4) Click on the login button

What are the main challenges in manual testing?

Our manual QA testing services company can outline three main challenges:
- Testing under tight time constraints where you have to complete a huge number of manual tasks within a short time
- The ability to use creativity and analytical skills to improvise while performing exploratory testing
- Writing proper reports that help developers quickly reproduce and fix defects

Do you perform regression testing manually? How?

Sure, we do. If it's a small project, we conduct manual regression testing by performing the steps outlined in the test cases and comparing the outcomes with the expected.
Depending on the result, we set the status of the test case pass/fail. Manual regression test execution is as simple as that, there are no special tools necessary for this process.
