Free radio streaming service
CHALLENGE
Our customer is an American radio streaming service that delivers radio station feeds and podcasts to over 75 million monthly active users. With over 100k radio stations and 4m podcasts, this service is one of the largest in the world. The application is available as a web app, mobile app, desktop clients, and in-vehicle infotainment devices.
Our team was tasked with providing testing and QA services to ensure that the application maintains its quality with a faster release cycle.
The main idea and the biggest challenge of the project was to expand the audience of the streaming service so that more people can get access to interesting and engaging content.
SOLUTION
Our team provided quality assurance and testing services to our customer. Over the course of the project we have engaged in over 15 types of testing.
Our team used Testlink, a simple but effective management tool, that helps to facilitate the software QA process. We chose Testrail to monitor the testing efforts and organize the work of the QA department in the best possible way. We also used Jira to simplify workflow management and complete tasks easily at all stages of the project.
Our team used Skype and WhatsApp to ensure smooth communication with our client, while Scrum methodology helped us to provide timely implementation as well as the high quality of the deliverables.

Global Print on Demand Service
CHALLENGE
The client approached TestFort looking for a dedicated testing and QA team for their print on demand mobile application. The company was gearing up for rapid growth and a significant expansion of their product line, and it was important that the same, high level of product quality was maintained even during the faster release cycle.
The service is constantly rolling out new items to its print shop, allowing users to print on well over 1k different physical products with over 1m different design and layout options.
Moreover, since the client’s service was available as a web, iOS, and Android application, the team had to conduct testing across multiple platforms.
SOLUTION
TestFort provided the client with a dedicated manual and automated testing team, complete with a Project Manager. The team integrated seamlessly with the client’s in-house and remote developers. The team and PM participated in daily stands, weekly Scrum meetings, and completed their testing and QA tasks in tandem with the client’s 2-week sprint schedule.
Over the course of the project, the team completed functionality, smoke, stress, regression, and cross-platform testing.
For cross-platform testing our team used physical phones, tablets, and desktop computers of various makes and models. Over 30 iOS and Android devices were used for testing to ensure the application’s flawless performance on both flagship and older devices.
TECHNOLOGIES
Types of testing performed:
– Automated testing
RESULT
Our work with the client continues and has been ongoing for several years. The client’s dedicated team consists of 10 people and is led by a dedicated project manager. Automated testing with the client began 1.5 years ago, and the extent of testing automation for the project is set to expand over the next 6 months.

Michelin
CHALLENGE
TestFort team had to make sure Michelin Tire Rotation Reminder feature works perfectly to let users know when they need to change their tires. Ideally, tires should be rotated every six months or 6,000 to 8,000 miles.
SOLUTION

Dashlane
CHALLENGE
The main objective of the project was verifying that the app would ensure the topnotch quality of the features with the release of new mobile devices, updates of OSs, and browsers. Our task was to maintain high security level, test full redesign of the app on all the platforms, test app’s performance after enhancements: new languages have been added to the app (English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Portuguese, Japanese), and this led to a wider array for test coverage. TestFort experts also had to implement, test, and stabilize the password changer feature which makes Dashlane different from other password managers.
SOLUTION
At the very beginning of the project, we chose Agile as the most suitable methodology for the case. Also, Scrum and Kanban methodologies were involved in the course of the testing process for some specific parts of the project QA. We used Redmine and Jira for the QA management to meet the deadlines, comply with the demands of the client, and achieve comprehensive results.
Zephyr was used to create test suites and test cycles. We used HockeyApp (Android and iOS), SharedBox, TestFlight (iOS) to deploy builds for testing. Our testing engineers also created custom tools to perform particular types of testing on the project and maximize productivity.
TECHNOLOGIES
– Methodologies: Agile, Kanban, Scrum
– Tools: Redmine, Jira, Zephyr, HockeyApp (Android & iOS), SharedBox, TestFlight
– Team size: 1 QA lead, 10 QC.
Types of testing performed:

Testing & QA for a Crypto Portfolio Tracker
CHALLENGE
The client, a crypto portfolio tracker that helps users follow the cryptocurrency market and manage their own portfolios, approached TestFort with a request to conduct testing and refactoring of the upcoming new version of their recently-developed mobile application.
Our objective was to perform thorough functional and regression testing, UX testing of the new UI and quality assurance of the app in the development environment to provide a full comparison to the live version of the app on multiple platforms. The main task was to refactor the application, making sure that the system meets its functional requirements and use-case scenarios in full to maintain high quality of the product.
SOLUTION
We identified and communicated all the issues and associated risks to the project team through functional, regression, UI and UX testing in the development environment, for which we used Pivotal. After a series of discussions, we got positive feedback with a green light to refactor the application. Our team optimized the UX/UI for graphs that show cryptocurrency rates, we refined transactions history, cryptocurrency profit calculation and personal notes on transactions, as well as improved the way cryptocurrency market news are displayed.
TECHNOLOGIES
