Miles & Miles Consulting

We offer a wide range of Testing services aimed at mitigating project risk and enabling fast Return On Investment. Our consulting services provide skilled consultants to companies large and small in order to provide confidence in software prior to implementation. This can be by providing skilled resources on a temporary basis or a full team on a managed service basis. Our offerings include manual testing and test automation. All our consultants are accredited specialists - ISEB / ISTQB Foundation at a minimum, with experience of multiple testing projects on a diverse range of environments. Our automation specialists are skilled in the use of test automation tools and many are accredited by our partners to a high degree of competence. Our consultants can provide health checks on existing test processes, which include the assessment of the TPI (Test Process Improvement) level for organisations. Software testing is a creative exercise that requires analytical skills, imagination and persistence to locate weaknesses within the complexity of any IT system. Many businesses have neither the skills nor the time for this highly specialised discipline. Our approach can help by placing a single consultant or an entire team on site to fulfill any testing requirement. Using our extensive experience in planning test strategies for both large and small projects, we can evaluate the risks of not testing and ensure that any test strategy defines the appropriate level and type of testing required. We will identify and report on problems within your key business systems using best testing techniques defined in our methodology and utilising our defect tracking system. We follow a total lifecycle testing practice, adhering to industry standards IEEE829 (standard for software test documentation), BS7925-1 (software testing vocabulary) and BS7925-2 (software testing and software component testing standards). From this, we offer a phased approach to software testing, where each phase is sub-divided into a structured series of tasks. Review points are defined to assure project quality factors are adhered to. We also provide supporting services including quality assurance, project management and change control incorporating configuration management and release management.
