Developing Deep Testing Cycles for a Large Game Development Partner

Business Challenge

A large AAA game development partner was concerned about the lack of deep testing cycles for a then currently in development game. Testing tasks demonstrated a shallow test approach that left the client with little confidence about the product release. The client was concerned about not being able to test the entirety of the product in the time remaining until public release.

Solution

Experis Game Solutions began by conducting interviews to help better understand the clients concerns and the root causes of the problems they identified. Through the interview process, the team found that the client’s QA team often lacked the time needed to execute quality checks and integration tests after implementation. These findings lead the team to identify a number of needs, including a test execution strategy designed by the Experis Game Solutions team to improve testing confidence and product quality.

Results

The Experis Game Solutions team was able to quickly provide a robust test plan that provided strategy and execution timelines. The client asked Experis Game Solutions QA leadership to manage the project and drive execution. Through performing additional testing, the team was able to find harder to locate issues and prevent issues from being put into the main build. Within 3 months, Experis Game Solutions logged over 5,000 bugs providing critical insight into the quality of the product, improving confidence in testing and dramatically improving the user experience.
