Quality Assurance

It is widely accepted that early error detection has countless advantages. It has not only an economical benefit but it also helps keep a tighter grip on the project providing more predictable results.

Quality software can be defined as bug-free (as far as determined by a risk analysis), delivered on time and within budget. It should also meet technical requirements, business expectations, and should be maintainable.

However, Quality is obviously a subjective term. At Smooth Lab we believe Quality is one of the most relevant concepts in the life of a technology company. Like no other service area, software development relays heavily on Quality Assurance procedures and policies. It is possible to get a pretty accurate image of an IT company by just taking a look at its Quality Assurance strategy.

Quality is a process that crosses the company end-to-end and exceeds the life-span of a single project. We believe Quality is a state of mind. Its goal is not only making a product stronger but a whole company more reliable.

This is why Smooth Lab created a comprehensive set of techniques to ensure quality in technological environments. Our methodology goes beyond reviewing processes and performing exhaustive testing. It also focuses on business rules, objectives and expectations. Without a clear and healthy business orientation, no IT project can end in success.

Our team is composed by professionals coming from multiple and complementary disciplines such as software engineers, software analysts, programmers, testers, financial markets experts, economists, social communicators, human-computer interface specialists. This blend of hardcore techies and soft sciences professionals gives us a distinctive edge in the IT world.
