What Are the Benefits of Independent Testing?

A well featured application is launched in the market only when it is reliable and usable. A dedicated work effort can be achieved independently on the product to be delivered.

 Here below, are some substantial benefits of independent software testing.

 1. Increases Confidence: When an independent testing team who has complete Domain and Business knowledge along with the software development team tests the system then the team's confidence level increases. Testing provides knowledge, confidence and proof that the system will perform as designed with minimum errors once rolled out.

 2. Improved Software Quality: The prime benefit of independent software testing is to improve software quality. Without testing no output can be anticipated. With testing you have hands on absolute proof for the deliverable. Application specifications and requirements are validated and verified by the independent testing team while the application is getting designed or developed. Independent testing provides software with the best quality and with the minimum bug in the application.

 3. Reduced Risk: Independent testing and the resulting enhancements give organizations' and developer's confidence that the system will deliver with the expected results, and the system will not fail in the field. It will also be identified that whether further work is required before deployment.

 4. Reduce Costs: The defects found in earlier stages, the less is the rework of development and testing later that reduces the implementation cost. Finding defects early also helps in increasing the operating efficiencies and results in a better quality of the application.

5. Lower Life cycle costs: Independent testing can provide exclusive focus on quality of the software and conformance to requirements. It ensures that the quality of the software has low failure rates and reduced maintenance cost. Subjecting the software to rigorous testing cycle across testing streams such as functional testing, performance testing, load testing, system testing and so on.

These are the major benefits of the independent software testing.

Now let us focus on the some performance related benefits of the independent software testing.

- Independent software testing can be asked to perform the load testing scenarios to check the software performance under maximum load conditions. The load testing of the application can be achieved without a setup or any technical knowhow on the integrities of it.

- Independent software testing can also be used to identify the system break down scenarios and how the system will respond in such cases. This helps in the data and system recovery procedures that require high level of specific know how

- With independent software testing effort the application becomes more reliable and usable. Putting forward the points properly in front of the customers shows the dedication of the organization for achieving high quality standards thus increasing the confidence levels.

 The main objective of independent software testing is to provide better quality to the customer and save time, effort and costs towards the deployment of the application.
