Sodality understands testing challenges. We have developed a methodology that simplifies the overall process and automation asset management process. We use a framework driven approach to ensure that you get the most out of your automation investment.
In many organizations, software testing remains a cumbersome, manual, error-prone process that results in extended testing cycles. This causes delays in application releases, and often results in software that fails to meet quality standards. Test automation helps minimize that risk and ensures quality, while dramatically speeding time-to-market. Automation can improve test coverage and yield higher quality products. It can potentially save thousands of test execution hours and provide significant cost savings. However, some organizations continue to face challenges in realizing the full potential of their acquired test automation tools. The complexity of automation technologies and the lack of in-house expertise needed to implement and manage these powerful automation tools are key reasons why. This often results in poor automation practices and frustrated resources. Test engineers end up spending too much time doing script maintenance and fixing automation assets, rather than actually executing scripts and realizing the ROI of test automation.
Sodality understands these challenges. We have developed an automation methodology that simplifies the overall automation and automation asset management process. We use a framework driven approach to ensure that you get the most out of your automation investment. This framework based automation approach is built on three key principles – Reusability, Maintainability and Expandability. Using a software development approach to automation, we create reusable components to minimize redundancy. We design the framework for extreme script maintainability, thus minimizing time spent in updating scripts and other automation assets when application changes. We know every client’s environment is different. We follow a systematic approach that helps us understand every client’s specific testing needs. This allows us customize a solution that fits their environment. This structured approach has resulted in a high success rate in providing automation solutions that reduce time, costs and risks associated with deploying them within the Enterprise.
Our structured approach to automation is as illustrated below: [Test Automation Structured Approach.png]

Do you know whether your mission-critical applications will meet the performance and scalability that your business requires? How do you decrease the risk of poor application performance or catastrophic failure when deploying a multi-user system? Is your application infrastructure optimized?
Performance issues in production can disrupt business, impair productivity and impact credibility. Hence, it is imperative to ensure that all applications are thoroughly testing before going live. However, with today’s complex applications that include multiple servers, network devices and distributed software components, it has become increasingly difficult to isolate, identify and fix the causes of failures. To effectively test these complex applications you need the right processes, expertise and technology.Making Sodality your performance testing partner is the fastest way to get a total solution to address all your performance testing requirements across the enterprise.
Sodality’s performance testing service is designed to help mitigate the risks of application failures and ensure performance in production. After more than a decade of performance testing experience we have developed sound processes and methodologies that help take the guess work out of performance testing and provide a disciplined approach that provides predictable outcomes. With this structured approach we have helped clients optimize their application infrastructures, thus ensuring the best possible end user experience for their applications. The goal of our performance service is to provide you the best practices and tools expertise to help you meet your application performance objectives at every stage of the software development lifecycle.
Our Methodology
Sodality’s methodology uses a structured approach to performance testing thus making it efficient and repeatable. The framework takes a proactive rather than a reactive approach – with emphasis on detailed system usage analysis and planning before actual test executions.[Performance Testing Methodology.png]

Sodality service offerings provide a balanced approach to managing your IT enterprise. With a solid foundation in process, an organization can then leverage the efficiency of industry leading tools, and can invest in attracting, training and retaining the best talent in the marketplace.
We combine our knowledge of Functional and Performance Validation along with Optimization best practices to help our clients develop comprehensive strategies for successful product development and deployment. Our complete focus on quality management, coupled with a deep understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) enables us to provide practical solutions that maximize testing efficiency and minimize the risks involved in building complex systems.
We understand that when integrating and implementing quality into a product or organization there is no one-solution-fits-all. Factors like the organizational structure, nature of business supported, available skill set, size of the company, and available tools are some of the factors that impact the software test strategy. Keeping that in mind, we tailor our QA and testing plans to fit the specific needs of each of our clients to ensure success.

For finance and investment applications, security, updated information and timely communication are crucial. Any missteps can cost your customers money and put their personal information at risk.
At the end of the day, your app needs to stand up to real world conditions. Moving part of your testing out of the lab and into the wild is the best way to catch fringe use cases and keep issues that only show up in the real world from affecting your customers when it really counts.
To have a successful financial app, it’s critical to focus on these key factors that often trip up developers in this field.
- Security, security, security. You app is transferring sensitive personal data. There is zero room for error.
- Reliable push notifications are important with financial and investment apps. Seconds are precious in this industry.
- Test for PII security when the app is multitasking or when other apps (which may not be up-to-date) are running on the device.
- If the app has a geo-location feature, it’s vital to test it in-the-field in several locations.
- With any apps that involve in-app calculations, these functions should be tested for functionality and localization.
- Verify that connections work outside of staging environments.
- Match the level of usability to your intended audience.
