Risk-Based Approach

 

Web and network applications can be characterized as Business-to-Consumer (B2C) or Business-to-Business (B2B) applications, and they deliver their functionality directly to the end customer via Internet, intranet, LAN, or CD.  There are applications that satisfy customer information and educational needs; deliver services to customers; provide sales delivery mechanisms for businesses; support business-to-business functionality; support government services (vital records, taxes, licenses, etc.).  Examples include Web Sites; Business Resource Centers; Catalog Sales; Credit Card Processing; online educational programs; Computer-based Training; Government Kiosks; and many, many more.  The applications are growing exponentially by the day; the numbers and types of applications are limited only by the imagination of the providers.  

 

B2B and B2C applications are delivered daily by thousands of companies across the nation.  Speed of delivery means competitive edge; quality of delivery means new and retained customers.  Especially in the Internet delivery arena, customers have the power to move easily from provider to provider in search of the ‘best of breed’; success or failure is just a click away..  Within hours of delivery hundreds of thousands of customers have the opportunity to accept your software or reject it and seek another.  Achieving the ‘best of breed’ status is a matter of finding the proper balance between functionality and quality and the ability to deliver before the competition. 

 

Testmasters is positioned to provide your organization with testing that is tailored to achieve a balance between speed and quality that best fits the cost/risk ratio for your software.
