Large Hospital Network Gains Reliable Quality Assurance and Software Testing Support

A large North American healthcare organization and hospital network is a critical component to the delivery of healthcare services for a large geography of hospitals and patients. In order for healthcare services to be delivered continuously and quickly, patients, doctors, hospitals, and government entities rely on applications built by this organization to ensure patients are matched with healthcare facilities with enough beds and resources to accommodate them.

With such high priority use cases – and with such complex and robust applications – this organization needed a reliable, consistent partner to help them make changes to the applications, execute rigorous quality assurance and testing, and enable high performance with little downtime.

Datavail has been an application development partner with this organization for over a decade. One of the critical functions we provide is quality assurance (QA) and software testing services to ensure all application changes are released without any high/medium defects or performance issues, and that each application function performs as expected with high patient and facility satisfaction.

In this case study, we will review the QA and software testing challenges and requirements of this healthcare organization, how Datavail delivered on those requirements, and the benefits they received from the consistency and reliability of our QA team.
