Project Overview

Kumu is a social networking app with a live streaming feature. It is an application built to last which is being used by a wide variety of audiences and mobile setups. It was a challenge to run through all the devices Kumu could be used on. Verifying the functionality, performance, and usability of the application and its compatibility with a camera and audio features of the native devices was a challenge to overcome.

Why Us

Due to a wide range of device usage, there were a lot of compatibility and UI issues. This was creating a lot of errors and bugs. To stay at the top in the market Kumu needed trustworthy software systems for its business processes. Testing plays an important role in building any software system and launching it in the market. The complexity of the business then makes it furthermore difficult for testing to happen without any error. ASTAQC provides 360° Software Testing and Quality Assurance services for global enterprises and SMEs across industries. It specializes in providing end-to-end application testing solutions, setting up Testing Center of Excellence (CoE’s), Niche testing, quality QA strategies at optimal cost and delivery at the right time. We set our aims on alleviating the harsh process of Testing. Therefore, building solutions that save our clients time and money. Understanding the implications testing can bring to companies, ASTAQC aims to provide relief to this process, to allow our clients to allocate their resources more efficiently and increase workflow.
