Quality Assurance

Log in page case

Client


One of the leading online platforms for schools and preschool education in the United States that chose Buffer Group as a long-term partner. The main idea of this platform is to help all students develop according to their skills and abilities.



Challenge


With a fast-paced generation, youngsters and adults need a one-click option to log in to a website. This is because they look out for other easier log in options on similar kinds of websites with a simple way to log in to a website to use it. The customer needed to make the log in page accessible within A/AA level for Chrome users because this is one of the most stressful parts about joining a website.



Solution


The project followed the agile methodology, and Buffer Group’s QA staff successfully integrated into the project team. They closely cooperated with the Customer’s business analysts and developers participating in daily scrum meetings, sprint reviews, and sprint retrospectives held at the end of each sprint. Buffer Group’s team members were responsible for testing team task coordination and distribution, as well as for planning and estimation of time required for testing in each of the two-week sprints.

The team also reported test results to the Customer and provided bug reports and verification to the developers. The project team provided the product quality evaluation stating that the application ran smoothly and correctly before each release.
