Welcome to ROQ – MAKING SOFTWARE WORK
The UK's Premier Test Lab
We make software work. Our UK-based world class Test Lab enables us to deliver large scale and global programmes that positively impact the bottom line for our clients. Our success is driven by building trusted relationships with major organisations who recognise that we bring a unique approach to software testing, and work with them to achieve their business objectives.
We Measure The Things That Matter
We believe that great results stem from having happy employees and happy clients. This philosophy is important to us, so we constantly track and publish the metrics to ensure we are achieving our objectives.
Our Approach to Testing
Our testing services are designed to ensure that the software that drives our clients’ businesses works as intended. We have developed a flexible and responsive approach, whilst using our vast experience in development methodologies to ensure we deliver genuine business value. Tailored to client specific needs, we offer Functional Testing, Test Automation and Performance Testing delivered from the UK’s Premier Test Lab.
ROQ SERVICES
Our testing services are designed to ensure that software works exactly as intended. Our successful approach is based on our independence, pragmatism and, most importantly, our people. Combining all these elements in equal measure ensures we deliver true business value, first time around.
Being a pure play software quality assurance and testing provider, we have expertise and specialists in all areas of testing and have services which act as accelerators to ensure that our clients can obtain the highest quality software within the constraints of time and tight budgets. Our years of gaining knowledge and experience mean these services have been fine-tuned so that they are fit for purpose, taking into consideration the increasing, and ever-changing, pressures that organisations face.
Our Clients Come First
Through engaging and listening to our clients, we recognised that there was a need for a more flexible and responsive approach to testing than the traditional service delivery models available. By putting our clients at the heart of everything we do; understanding their aims, strategic objectives and business outcomes, we have established a reputation as being an indispensable strategic partner, fundamental to the success of their major software implementations.
Functional Testing
ROQ offers functional testing expertise through every stage of your testing process to ensure the successful delivery of a quality solution that meets your business needs and reduces risk. Our practical mobilisation plans ensure a smooth transition whether it be for the implementation of a large-scale government system, a new eCommerce initiative or the introduction of a new global HR system.
Typically involving project teams of 10-25 people on long term engagements, we employ flexible resourcing models and have established our own delivery methodologies based on a combination of best practices and proven approaches.
Test Automation
Organisations are under pressure to deliver high quality software, quicker. Effective test automation is a key enabler for increasing business agility, reducing costs and driving greater efficiencies in software delivery.
Recognising the benefits that it can bring for our clients, ROQ has invested heavily in becoming experts in test automation. We look to understand our client’s technological landscape to ensure that the solution we propose is fit for purpose, creates great outcomes and is cost-effective. ROQ has developed pre-built, easily adaptable frameworks and assets, that client’s can quickly leverage to expedite delivery further.
Performance Testing
The availability and optimum performance of enterprise systems – whether internal or customer facing – is of huge importance to our clients. Our robust approach follows a set of very simple principles. We work closely with our clients, using the knowledge we have gained in the previous phases of testing and working with the business community, to identify the biggest risk areas of the implementation.
This forms the basis of our performance testing approach, enabling us to identify and mobilise the right skills, expertise and appropriate tools and environments to deliver the required performance testing service.
Managed Testing Services
Employing a pragmatic approach from the outset, the managed testing services we provide are built upon a clear understanding of our client’s requirements. Once agreed, we then work closely with our clients, to structure the right team, adopting the most appropriate approach given any time, cost and risk constraints in place.
Our collaborative approach to testing is the ideal solution for organisations who want to transform their testing and QA activities to produce high-quality software. We have developed a fantastic reputation for advocating a ‘shift-left’ approach, providing independent challenge – both inside and outside of the testing domain – to drive organisations and their software programmes forward successfully.
