Experior's Risk Based Testing Approach
Mitigating risk by testing what matters...
This unique approach allows business processes to be evaluated in terms of business criticality so that testing effort is focused and weighted in line with business requirements. By focusing on what truly matters, Experior’s approach keeps testing aligned to the business needs and allows client and project teams the opportunity to remove the typical redundancies found in standard testing approaches. By association costs are reduced too.
Companies frequently ask us, “what should we test?” This basic question should be easily answered by every tester; you need to test what presents the business with the most risk, and therefore what truly matters to the business. Knowing how to determine this true understanding of business risk can only come from an solid comprehension of the business processes. This enables alignment of testing activities to critical business processes and drives efficiencies into the test cycles. A risk-based approach is a necessity.
Testing is often perceived as a road-block to Go-Live; is resource intensive, slow and cumbersome. This is not the case, provided you have the tools and approach in place to address some key areas. Risk-based testing enables you to address two key fundamental challenges within your project:
1. Improve Quality
- Know where your high-risk areas are and ensure the right testing is applied
- Drive consistency and repeatability of testing across projects and BAU changes
2. Reduce Time & Effort of Testing
- Focus on testing the most important areas
- Sequence testing to ensure high-risk elements are tested first and most thoroughly
- Reduce effort to build new test assets
- Accelerate Test Execution
- Drive significant cost benefit from reduced resources
