Governance, Compliance & Quality Assurance

Testing & validation

Define and run the test strategy of a programme: levels, coverage, data sets, non-regression and functional validation.

EN UNE PHRASE

Coverage means nothing except against the requirements.

THE PROBLEM

The situations that bring us in

  • 01

    Tests cover the screens, not the end-to-end processes.

  • 02

    The data sets represent neither the real volumes nor the real cases.

  • 03

    Non-regression is replayed by hand, and therefore only in part.

  • 04

    The test environments are not comparable to production.

  1. 01THE PROBLEM

    A substantial testing effort whose real coverage, measured against the requirements, remains unknown.

  2. 02WHAT AXENEO DOES

    We define the strategy by level, design the test cases tied to the requirements, build the data sets and steer the campaigns.

  3. 03THE RESULT

    Measurable coverage, campaigns that can be replayed, and a go-live decision backed by evidence.

What we do

Design

  • Test strategy and test levels
  • Test cases tied to requirements
  • Test data sets and anonymisation
  • Test environments and version management

Execute

  • Functional validation and business acceptance testing
  • Integration and end-to-end testing
  • Non-regression campaigns
  • Campaign reviews and defect tracking

The Governance, Compliance & Quality Assurance method

This domain sits within the pillar’s overall method.
  1. 01

    Scoping

    Quality enters the project with the scoping: requirements formalised, testable, prioritised and linked to an identified need.

  2. 02

    Requirements

    Every requirement gets an owner, an acceptance criterion and a link to the test that will verify it. Traceability is built as you go, not reconstructed afterwards.

  3. 03

    Quality plan

    Roles, expected deliverables, reviews, quality gates and go-live conditions. The setup is sized to what the programme is worth.

  4. 04

    Testing

    Test strategy by level, coverage reported against requirements, representative data sets and controlled environments.

  5. 05

    Validation

    Functional validation, integration, regression. Gaps are qualified and settled in governance, not absorbed quietly.

  6. 06

    Compliance

    Where a standard applies, the body of evidence and the remediation plans are built continuously, through to the audit.

USE CASES

Where we step in

  • Acceptance testing for an ERP rollout

    Acceptance scripts organised by business process, representative data sets and non-regression campaigns before each switchover.

  • Validating exchanges between systems

    End-to-end testing between applications or between organisations, with shared test sets and common criteria.

Testing & validation: let’s talk about your context

Whether the subject is a programme to secure, an acceptance process to structure or a certification to prepare, the first question is the same: what exactly are we committing to, and how do we demonstrate it?
