Functional testing
Your software should work just the way everyone expects
Functional testing focuses on verifying that the developed systems function in accordance with the functional specifications and customer requirements. This service helps your organisation detect potential defects derived from errors in the programming phase.
What is functional testing?
These are tests that focus on the behaviour of systems and the input and output data of the environment that is under testing.
Initially, functional tests are mostly carried out manually, but any test where the tester does not add value must be automated. In this sense, automated tests save time on repetitive procedures, and increase their reliability by eliminating the intrinsic human error of functional tests.
Types of functional tests
Compatibility testing
We check the operation of the software developed on different platforms: hardware, operating systems, browsers, networks, etc.
Integration testing
We verify the connections and communications between the different modules of the developed software with third-party agents, such as payment gateways, advertising systems, etc.
Regression testing
We check the correct functioning of the developed software against evolutions or changes in functionality.
Why you should perform functional testing
Cost savings
Investing in functional testing means saving yourself future problems that can become very costly in terms of the time and money required to solve them.
With functional tests you will improve the final quality of your service by avoiding possible errors in the operation of your software.
Risk reduction
You do not have to risk losing Customers, Money, Trust in the service.
By reducing risks through the early detection of defects, the quality and smooth operation of the software are optimised.
Brand image
If software errors are generated in your product, your business brand will be impacted, resulting in a poor image of your company in the eyes of the user.
With functional testing, you avoid damaging your company's valuation with the early and timely detection of errors in your software.
If your website does not work properly, you will lose visitors, sales, and the opportunity to gain new customers
Convert users into loyal customers who recommend your brand and help improve positioning on your website

How do we do functional testing?
Among the basic tasks of any functional testing project are the analysis of functional documents, customer requirements and the design of a test plan that covers all the application's use cases, such as: the simulation of test environments, the execution of test cases, and the management of detected defects.
Globe Testing performs a comprehensive management of the functional testing project, from the start until it is ready for commercialisation and production launch. Among the testing methodologies most frequently used by Globe Testing are Agile Testing and Cascade Testing. The latter methodology is based on working in parallel with the development teams, distinguishing three main phases: planning, preparation, and execution.
Providing a vision that is not only technical but also user-focused means that Globe Testing's tasks go beyond finding errors in the system, in many cases offering recommendations regarding the usability and accessibility of the system under test.
