Software Quality Assurance
Quality assurance in software development saves money by preventing costly down-the-road bugs and malfunctions. Once something you could get by without, it is now absolutely essential. Ultimately the teams hired by SkyeDesk can work more quickly and have access to more advanced technology at a lower cost than your team or one you can hire in the US, UK or Australia. Today software development practices like DevOps and Agile, which speed up release times of software, have made it important to use QA testers earlier on in the development stages.
The Best Projects For Outsourced QA
Generally in-house QA teams lack skills, experts, and cost far too much. By working with SkyeDesk you can increase your expertise and skill set while saving time and money. In markets like the US, UK and Australia there are generally not enough employees for the specific requirements of QA anyway, leading to the necessity of outsourcing. While many employers start outsourcing because any employees are better than zero employees, they keep using outsourcing because they achieve incredible results and become believers. The needs of long-term, short-term and one-time projects are different, and thereby so are the benefits gained by outsourcing, and we’ve outlined them below.

The Benefits of Outsourcing QA
Fresh Eyes: Your development team undoubtedly worked hard, but being so close to the project is also their biggest weakness. You need fresh eyes on the project in order to seek out issues in the code, just like any writer needs an editor. This does not mean handing the project off completely to another team—this would be ill-advised—it simply means the main team receives feedback they can use to improve their existing product.
More Focus: Your team needs to focus on building the best piece of software possible. If it does this and your QA team finds bugs as they arise, your team can avoid solving them late in the process, which wastes their time and potentially endangers your entire outcome.
Save Time: There are countless tasks to complete when developing software, so unless your team is very large, they need to focus on as few things as possible. More importantly, if your team can’t focus properly on quality inspection, how are you even going to know the level of product you have produced?
Change Management: When clients change their requirements often, you need to develop a change management process with scalability and flexibility in mind. Progress won’t be hindered as a result and your team won’t become burned out by clients that constantly change their minds due to lack of project fundamentals.
QA Automation: As testing methods continue to become automated, if your team does not stay entirely on top of new tech and tools, they will fall behind. Our remote quality assurance professionals focus on one thing—the cutting edge of QA, so your team can focus on building the best software possible.

One-time projects
Particularly in the case of a one-time project, why would it make sense to hire an in-house team? Maybe you’ll never need another piece of software, which would make buying the tech and hiring the people of no use.
Short-term projects
While short-term projects suffer from the same issue as one-time projects, you may get more utility out of your team if the project exists for a suitable duration.

Long-term projects
For these projects you could justify hiring an in-house team in some cases, but it’s easy for the cost of long-term projects to spiral out of control.
