Functional Testing Services
Functional testing ensures that your application works for the user the way you intended. Functional testing is, therefore, crucial for ensuring a satisfying experience in the eyes of customers and clients. This test includes manual testing, exploratory testing, and regression testing.
Functional testing and regression testing are core areas of our expertise here at spriteCloud. We handle this form of testing for digital agencies, full-service internet bureaus, and eCommerce sites, amongst many other types of business. These projects can range from testing short, fast, campaign-driven websites to large-scale, multi-lingual, multi-functional corporate websites and applications. Our testers can perform our functional testing services in the Netherlands or remotely for clients located abroad.
Why outsource testing to a functional testing service?
Your organisation may have the expertise to create beautiful, intuitive websites and apps but, functional testing is a complex process. While you focus on fine-tuning the customer journey and creating an unforgettable experience, we’ll do the heavy lifting behind the scenes to make sure your application works as expected across multiple devices, browsers and operating systems.
Your organisation spent so much time and money creating the application, why would you risk the embarrassment of a buggy launch?
Software developers don’t usually make good testers because they have a mindset of creation; our test experts have the mindset of destruction needed to thoroughly test your application. People who don’t have tester-mindset aren’t as likely to test for usability or for an intuitive flow through the system. They won’t think to try to force the application to do things it wasn’t designed to do.
Our functional testing service experts can help you ensure that your application works well and that your reputation is safe in your customers’ eyes. Use the contact form below to get in touch with us about testing for your organisation.

Functional Testing Strategy
Testing the site to verify that the website and its functions work as expected.
Testing the site in each browser/operating-system nominated to verify the visual presentation works in each configuration.
Testing the site in each device nominated to verify the visual presentation works in each configuration.
Tools-assisted manual testing to discover broken links on the site.
“The activities and techniques for verifying and validating software that has been adapted to run specifically for a specific world geographical region.”
Explicitly testing a website in two or more country locales. Default: One locale only (e.g. UK-English).
Basic manual front-end penetration testing such as SQL and JavaScript injection. Our penetration testing services can provide more thorough testing.
Testing a web site or web application on various devices and screen resolutions to see if the responsive design works as expected.
Tools-assisted manual conformance testing to international standards. E.g. W3C WAI WCAG, USA Section 508, Dutch quality mark.
Ensure that all plug-ins used in the website or application function properly and within expected parameters.
Social media is a crucial commercial tool these days which is why we make sure that when visitors come to your amazing application, they can share the experience with their friends.
Delivery Methods
We can provide functional testing services for your website or application via several delivery methods. You can hire a full-time software tester to join your organisation, you can request ad hoc testing for a situation where you don’t test very frequently, and you can assemble a recurring monthly package for consistent testing, the best solution.

If you find these all confusing get in touch with us at info@spritecloud.com or via our contact page so we can help you figure out the best solution.
Remote Testing
Our software testers are very experienced at testing client applications remotely. The COVID-19 virus has forced a lot of organisation to work remotely but fortunately, our testers already have the skills to help remote teams. spriteCloud has been providing testing both remotely and on-site for over ten years. All of our software testing services can be executed remotely.
Ad Hoc Testing
Projects are fixed scope engagements of a predetermined time frame. In other words, we test only what you ask for. Projects can be delivered locally at your office alongside your team or carried out in a remote testing format from our headquarters in Amsterdam and other offices.
Contracting
Contracting is a method of engagement where a tester is contracted to join your organisation to deliver the required testing on a (near-)full-time basis. Contract-based work is typically delivered locally but can also be delivered remotely.
Software Testing Subscription
Our Software Testing Subscription is a monthly recurring package (a Test Stack) made up of a custom mixture of our software testing services. Here you can decide the exact software testing services you want, how much testing you need, and how long you want the subscription. Our Software Testing Subscription allows you to create the best quality products for the best customer experience because it facilitates consistent and high quality testing.
