Duration

Apr 2020 - Sept 2020

Team

2 QA Engineers

Overview

A mobile game for pre-school kids available for IOS and Android. Our job involved: testing the game in a systematic way, analyzing the game's performance against the designer's intentions, identifying and reporting problems, and suggesting improvements. However, it also involved creativity and ingenuity, which is used to figure how to ‘break’ the game in different and unique ways.

Objective

Categorize and prioritize bugs

Develop software quality management system

Challenge

Testing involved playing the same game repeatedly for weeks at a time, testing different levels and versions or revisions of the game. Sometimes, different teams were responsible for specific sections or areas of a game. The work could be repetitive and tedious; however, we were able to stay motivated and test the game long after the novelty and fun factor may have worn off. We had to accept that we had only limited influence over the design and worked methodically on testing within the constrains we faced.

Solution

Given our understanding of game design, how games are created, and how the different elements of a game contribute to the playing experience we were able not only identify and record a problem, but also try to work out what is causing it. By honing our communication skills with other members of the team across the world we had them onboard when we came up with our solutions to the testing challenges. Our engineer responsible for QA’ing this project could maintain concentration while playing games for long periods of time because of his passion for playing games.

Result

A better user experience for in-app purchases. Smooth UX across a wide range of phones and tablets. Software quality management system to document finding and maintain a change log.

Testimonials

Guys did a fantastic job by redesigning our application in a very short time with high quality. They are supporting you in every question during the collaboration even if it's out of the scope of their business. We just asked for videomaker contacts if any, and they made the video. That's amazing!

Tesvan has some remarkable knowledge of Cypress e2e automation. They filled the gaps in our automated tests and added new tests. Glad I chose them.
