Overview
A Canadian-based classifieds website* with different categories of ads, including Jobs, Property, Tech, and numerous subcategories in each.
* We recognize the importance of protecting our clients’ privacy and follow the policies to maintain their confidentiality and security. That is why the company name will not be disclosed.
Challenge
The website logic is as follows:
- A user clicks on an element with an active link.
- The link, always an internal one, opens in a new tab.
- The previous tab stays in the background and redirects to another URL, usually an external one.
The client requested to test the product listing and product details pages to find defects and weak spots on the site. It is a typical things-to-do list for such projects.
Solution
- The QA Madness team made a checklist and started testing based on it.
- We run tests in Safari, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and all browsers on the most popular smartphone models.
- We prepared four testing scenarios, two of them using a VPN.
- The QA engineers conducted functional, UI, cross-device,cross-browsing, and negative testing.
- Altogether, we tested the app on twenty-four mobile devices and forty-three web environments.
Results
The QA Madness team set up effective direct communication with the client’s development team for cases when they had additional questions regarding bugs. Most of the bugs detected were of a major level of severity. We provided a detailed description of each bug with steps to reproduce and screenshots.
