Cloud testing services

Cloud testing is a process of using cloud computing tools to check the performance of cloud architecture, resources, and cloud-native platforms. It can also mean using cloud testing tools and frameworks to perform a QA session. At Relevant, we have expertise in doing both.

Before providing cloud services, our testing team creates a testing strategy that includes an evaluation of the needed tools and procedures that would be the best fit for the specific product and industry. We perform various types of testing (load, stress, performance, acceptance, etc.) to check specific modules, platforms, and components, and provide end-to-end testing services for the whole cloud environment.

There are a few challenges associated with cloud testing. The first one is how to ensure the safety and security of data, particularly if testing is taking place in the outsourced cloud. Second, suppose the product is based on the multi-cloud model (meaning its architecture combines the components of private and public cloud). In that case, the testing team should anticipate possible synchronization issues. Third, while the cloud testing environment simulates the near-real user’s environment, there is always a possibility of discrepancies that can only be tested with real users in real-life conditions. Plus, the testing team should always test the application, network, server, and storage related to the cloud, and validate the test results across the layers.

Your product needs cloud testing to make sure that the users receive the service they were promised in the product description. It also needs thorough testing before the launch to save you from overspending on the technologies, tools, or integration that won’t have an expected ROI. Plus, testing identifies the high-risk areas for you to plan a robust risk management strategy and mitigate the consequences of possible incidents with lesser financial and reputational damages. In addition, it will show you the minimum and maximum workload and traffic that the product or platform can serve simultaneously to adjust the resource distribution and prevent unavailability.

If you have a cloud-based product, testing it before offering it to real users will help you ensure its flawless performance and detect bugs before they spoil the first impression. Another benefit of testing your cloud environment is to see where you can save money, what resources are idle yet paid for, and whether your product is risk-resistant.

If you do cloud testing (meaning using cloud tools to do tests), it will save you costs, speeds up the time to market, and decrease the duration of manual testing.

Since launching Relevant 8 years ago, we have completed over 200 projects for businesses of various sizes globally. We have experience in providing various IT services, such as frontend and backend development, cybersecurity, DevOps, etc. for fintech, healthcare, e-commerce, education, and other industries.

Our specialists use various communication platforms to keep in touch with clients. We use the Jira management service for project management and task-related discussion. We can also use Slack, Skype, Zoom, and other apps for meetings or chats, and we’re open to considering another tool of your choice.

We can start working on your project as soon as we agree on the project terms and sign the required contracts and NDA. During the initial session, we’ll define the project scope, consult you on the best testing solutions for your product/environment, analyze the risks, and create a detailed step-by-step testing strategy.

You can track the project’s progress by logging into the project’s account in Jira, or by contacting a dedicated PM. Also, we can schedule the progress tracking session once a week/biweekly to report on the scope of work done and the future plans. Either way, you’ll have complete control over the project’s pace.

We offer our testing services for SMBs, startups, and global companies, and we have enough end-to-end cloud testing teams to outsource for large-scale projects. By choosing Relevant, you can rest assured that we will use the industry’s best practices and strategies to test the product, platform, or environment’s performance and provide reliable data-based results to work further.
