We ensure digital quality

In agile software development, cycles tend to be short and specifications are often finalized late in the game making it necessary to modify the designs, approaches and methods used in software testing. We design testing that is individualized and project-specific, which is particularly important for scaled agile frameworks, and employ a systematic approach to our testing. This allows us to help companies in their transition into an agile world.

Implementing agile approach models and continuous delivery approaches requires many automated delivery and test processes. By using modular designs and defining parameters, we are able to reduce the effort involved in creating and maintaining, and we are able to lay the basis for test automation that is economically viable. Our tool approach is based entirely on customer needs, which means we are provider-independent. Our tailored automation strategies and efficiently implemented test automation optimally help our customers achieve their quality goals.

With msg.passbrains, we offer customers realistic tests with a test strategy that is right for almost any scope whether functionality, user-friendliness, user load or compatibility.

A positive user experience with a software is decisive for its success in the market. We review application system performance, identify performance bottlenecks and provide concrete recommendations for action. Following in-depth consulting, our customers are able to easily ensure early on that their application offers an optimal user experience.

SAP environment testing requires special knowledge of both SAP R/3 and S4/HANA systems. The development of new SAP applications and continued development of existing SAP applications as well as standard software updates by SAP require regular testing. As one of the leading SAP partners in the market, our SAP testing service supports companies in their SAP implementation and/or transition process testing. This support includes the development of customer-specific test strategies that take established SAP methodology into consideration as well as key elements such as test automation, test data management, SAP environment management and SAP release rollouts.

Many of our citizens are affected by disabilities. This means that accessibility is not just a legal matter for digital offers, but also essential to their success. We advise our clients throughout the development process and systematically verify the digital accessibility of their applications, websites and digital materials based on recognized guidelines and standards. Not only does this eliminate existing barriers, but ensures their digital portfolio is available to everyone, while also satisfying the requirements of the equality principle (Federal Ordinance on Barrier-Free Information Technology [BITV]/Act on Strengthening Accessibility [BFSG]).

For many of today's software applications, it goes without saying that releases will be developed and go live in short cycles. With that in mind, it is no longer possible nor would it make sense to limit testing to a specific phase. We develop solutions that ensure continuous testing throughout the entire software development life cycle starting with requirement engineering to live operation.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are becoming more and more commonplace in our day-to-day lives and are influencing decisions especially in the field of HR and talent management, facilitating production and logistics processes in industry and are being used in the development of IT systems.

Within this tense field of application, two key questions come to mind:

1. How can we ensure the reliability and trustworthiness of the results produced by AI systems – in other words, how can AI systems be tested?
2. What type of AI systems are most effective at simplifying, accelerating and making more efficient the processes used in development, especially in test processes or throughout the entire software life cycle? They could be used, for example, in the derivation and creation of test cases from requirement documents or in classifying defect and error messages in incident management.

We offer customers a variety of consulting services for AI system testing or on using AI systems in quality assurance and in doing so help ensure that the use of AI systems benefits our customers, users and the parties affected by the results.

The magic triangle of project management in software development rises and falls with a clearly designed, planned and executed test approach. It is in companies’ best interest to establish uniform standards for doing so. In many cases, this effort is initiated as a result of legal regulations, supervisory regulations or certification requirements. We are familiar with the questions that arise time and again within that context and work with our customers to develop internal policies, processes and communication strategies that meet our customers’ specific needs.
