Quality Assurance Company: Print Testing
Quality assurance company works to determine whether or not developed software products meet customer requirements. It ensures that the applications are exactly what they are expected to be.
In the personal computer market there are more than thousands of different printers. This market is divided into several sections representing the various platform devices. Its largest share belongs to Microsoft platform.
Not all the programs use the full printer functions – some of them do not print graphics, do not use different font styles (bold, underline, etc.), do not use proportional fonts or other specific types of fonts, do not print in color. Simply put, they do not print anything but a standard ASCII-text at 79 characters per line. These programs are compatible with virtually all printers available on the market, and there is practically no need to subject them to configuration testing.
By the way, performance testing companies are eager to determine how well a device or program performs its functions in terms of responsiveness, throughput, effectiveness, speed, reliability and so on.
With regard to programs that have the advantages of modern printing devices, they are not even trying to support absolutely all printers. You should try to test all of the printers according to their compatibility specified in the program’s documentation, as well as the models that are fully compatible with these devices. Do not forget to check the most “capricious” printers and also those that have proven themselves to be unreliable devices that cause problems to software more often than other equipment of the kind and which cause most of the user complaints to arise.
If you are lucky, the project manager will provide you with a list of the most popular devices and the most important ones from the marketing point of view, (e.g. those that have special functions or are destined to become demandable in the nearest future).
However, do not be surprised if it turns out that you will have to conduct market research on your own. In this case, you can turn to a few popular sources of relevant information as Computer Reseller News, PC Magazine (especially annual edition of printers) and MacWorld.
Be aware, mobile app testing companies are waiting for you to contact them in order to solve all possible problems associated with proper performance of mobile applications. Take your mobile apps along if you are dissatisfied with their work and pay a call on qualified and skilled testing specialists!
