Need: Testing Automation & Quality Assurance
Zola already had an established tech team in charge of the development and maintenance of its web presence, iOS, and Android apps. However, they needed a Quality Assurance (QA) team to perform extensive tests to predict and prevent potential issues as they planned for growth.
Solutions
For its web presence, Zola uses Java and Scala on the back-end with an Angular and React front-end. We provided full QA on the Zola platform which included overseeing testing on all web apps and its native mobile apps for Android and iOS. We were in charge of all functional testing, from test case design to execution. We manually tested all-new features, tracking any issues in the early stages of development, and, through regression testing, we ensured existing features continued to run smoothly. We also automated much of the testing with Java, Cucumber, Selenium WebDriver, and TestNG to enable more efficient releases in the future. These automated tests run on Jenkins.
Results
Since our partnership began, the Zola Quality Assurance team has grown. This has allowed them to ensure top-notch quality of the existing services as their platform matures and introduces new features to its customers. Oktana continues to assist on QA of Zola’s multiple apps across web and mobile, including monitoring current features and testing new features prior to release.
