Ensuring Quality Software

Out of the various quality assurance products in the market, our team trusts Selenium and Protractor to fulfill our commitment to providing you with apps and software that are dependable and provide exceptional end user experience.

Selenium

Selenium

Selenium is an open-source umbrella project for a range of tools and libraries aimed at supporting browser automation. It provides a playback tool for authoring functional tests across most modern web browsers, without the need to learn a test scripting language (Selenium IDE). It also provides a test domain-specific language to write tests in several popular programming languages, including JavaScript (Node.js), C#, Groovy, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Scala. Selenium runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Protractor

Protractor

Protractor is an end-to-end test framework for Angular and AngularJS applications that runs tests against applications running in a real browser. This means it interacts with the apps just as a user would. This digital tool is built on top of WebDriverJS, which uses native events and browser-specific drivers to interact with applications. Protractor supports Angular-specific locator strategies, which allows us to test Angular-specific elements.

JMeter

JMeter

Apache JMeter is an option for testing strength and analyzing overall performance under varying load types by simulating a heavy load on a network, object, server, or group of servers. The tool is useful for load testing functional behavior and measuring performance of both dynamic and static resources. JMeter has complete portability, 100% Java purity, and provides dynamic HTML reports.

Cypress

Cypress

Cypress is a cutting-edge end-to-end testing framework designed with developers and QA engineers in mind. At Trailhead, we harness the power of Cypress to streamline our testing processes. The Cypress Test Runner empowers our team to efficiently set up, write, and execute tests locally, greatly enhancing our debugging capabilities. Whether it’s end-to-end, integration, or unit testing, Cypress supports it all, making it an ideal choice for verifying the functionality of web applications. With its real-time reloading and automatic waiting, Cypress ensures consistent and reliable testing, enabling us to deliver high-quality custom software solutions with confidence.

Playwright

Playwright is a powerful open-source automation framework that allows seamless testing of web applications across different browsers, including Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit. With its single API, Playwright enables our team at Trailhead to write robust tests in JavaScript or TypeScript, ensuring consistent performance across various browser environments. Additionally, Playwright’s built-in features for capturing screenshots, videos, and traces provide comprehensive insights into application behavior, enhancing our ability to deliver high-quality custom software solutions.

Postman

Postman is a versatile collaboration platform that streamlines the process of designing, testing, and documenting APIs. At Trailhead, we leverage Postman to create and execute API requests, monitor responses, and automate workflows, ensuring seamless integration between various components of our custom software solutions. Its user-friendly interface and extensive collection of pre-built tools make it an invaluable asset for our development and testing teams, enabling us to deliver robust and reliable cloud-based applications tailored to our clients’ needs.

Azure Load Testing

Azure Load Testing is a powerful cloud-based service by Microsoft, essential for Trailhead’s performance testing arsenal. It enables us to simulate real-world traffic, stress test applications, and ensure optimal performance under various load conditions. By generating virtual user traffic from Azure data centers worldwide, we gain critical insights into system scalability and responsiveness, guaranteeing our custom software applications deliver seamless experiences even during peak usage. This tool plays a pivotal role in our quality assurance process, ensuring we deliver high-performance solutions to our clients.

Testing at Every Stage of Development

We utilize a variety of tools and techniques to test your software and apps at all stages of development, including automated web testing (using Selenium or Protractor), automated mobile testing, and standard unit testing practices for API-level testing. This is an essential practice for ensuring that your tech is secure and functions at the highest level. 

Our Commitment to Quality

In the hub of our core values at Trailhead Technology is our care for your company and our work. We want your team and end users to have software and apps that function the way they are intended, every time. And our architects, developers, and designers take tremendous pride in their work. These two factors drive us as we perform quality assurance measures and test your digital solutions at every step in the process.
