Overview
Techstern was entrusted with the significant responsibility of developing and sustaining a comprehensive functional testing protocol for a healthcare application. This encompassed both manual and automated testing strategies, focusing on the user's healthcare journey.
Objectives
- Establishing a Full-Scale Functional Test Process: Developing an end-to-end functional test procedure tailored for the application.
