99tests: Offering A Comprehensive Platform For Successful Software Testing

There has been significant progress in the software testing space in the IT industry. Over time, software testing to detect faults before the product became operational began trending. To keep up with the changing times and trends, developers and testers alike continuously strive to upgrade their skills. One of the important trends that will soon alter the landscape of how we perceive software testing to be is crowsourced testing. Using crowd sourced platforms, it is possible to get accelerated testing insights in varied test environments. Crowdsourcing gives access to technically skilled and capable software testers from around the globe. With a global team of testers, one can get complete coverage across geographies and multiple configurations without any major investments in devices and full time QA hires. Since finding skilled testers for software testing projects is arduous & challenging, this changes the dynamics. It is strenuous to effectively manage the chaos of a crowd sourced testing platform. Aiding organizations to get an all round geographic coverage, 99tests, leading company in test automation powered by crowd & AI, offers a platform of 20,000 plus testers from over 160 plus countries. 99tests have the right process and algorithm in place to manage the crowd effectively and deliver a world class testing platform. The company believes that their crowd testing and automation platform is an innovative alternative to help organizations to test various external consumer-focused apps.

Through this crowd testing platform, companies can meet their need for talent in a short duration, thus solving the shortage of skilled crowd testers. 99tests have aided over 200 clients worldwide in testing their web & mobile apps. With the mobile app revolution and growth of IoT, 99tests is expected to have a considerable growth in their client base. Further to their latest innovative test automation model, a composite approach that uses various testing methodologies using the crowd in the open and includes efficient techniques like ACC & BDD methodologies makes it easier for companies to maximize test coverage. Evidently, this approach ensures maximum test coverage and optimal device coverage, two of the major issues.The third benefit is the adaptability to any development cycles including daily release cycle. The power of crowd comes handy to test applications involving Big Data methodologies, which otherwise could be challenging and insufficient with synthetic data. So far as cloud computing is concerned, it makes it easier for a team spread across globally and test the cloud deployed application.
