In an ideal world, monitoring and diagnostics are not needed, but the reality is much more complicated than the developers’ thought of the quality of their software.
Spica Solution is a company focused on delivering value to customers. Therefore, when we see process that can be improved, we make every effort to improve it. Every company building its own software must test it in several ways (functional testing, regression testing, load testing etc.). Each test gives other teams some input to take action and implement improvements.
The quality of data determines how quickly the responsible teams will be able to improve the software and how good results they will achieve before the final release of the application. Relying solely on test inputs or a general overview of tester reports forces employees to collect all the data needed for analysis, prepare environment to reproduce the problem, etc. This takes time and forces people to dig into various data sources to gain a better understanding.
Using an observability platform, especially one as good and mature as Dynatrace, improves results dramatically. Your team can access tall the data, traces, security reports, logs and metrics they need in one place, keeping everything in context. Everything can be run from a single link with a user session recorded by a tester or script. Do you have load tests and the environment is not stable? All the data is there, and artificial intelligence is ready to help you with it.
Our offering leverages our experience to move from where customers are today to a future where testing and observability are inseparable. Reaching this point gives you familiar capabilities such as building quality gates based on data from your observability platform. These gateways can support automation in CI/CD pipelines. Some decisions that were previously made manually can be automated and support you in your DevOps transformation.
We can support you with:
- Building an entire strategy for covering test environments with monitoring
- Assistance of our engineers during test sessions (analysis, full reporting, support in contact with developer teams to reduce ROI)
- Integrate existing test scripts with observability platform
- Create new test scripts (automated or load test) for discovered functionalities or applications
- Leading entire testing projects in the organization from start to finish.
