Complex ecommerce website testing
Itransition helps a large eCommerce retailer provide a better customer experience.
Problem
Our Customer is an established business running an eCommerce portal powered by the Magento platform that offers 500+ fashion and home goods brands. The users can get up to 70% discounts buying from the platform. The Customer’s marketing department analyzed user information and preferences, and came up with several ideas on how to enhance user experience and promote sales. In order to reach the set goals, the Customer decided to add some new functionality features to their platform:
- more payment options (gift cards and mobile wallets in addition to credit cards payments);
- new delivery areas (adding several new shipping regions);
- integration with major social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, etc.);
- loyalty program for regular customers (a client can participate in the program by subscription and get special offers on the goods they are interested in.
Having added those features, it was of crucial importance for the business to ensure the high quality of the solution. Itransition QA engineers demonstrated the required expertise and were chosen to carry out the e-commerce website testing at all levels. Itransition’s QA team task was to ensure the new features are seamlessly integrated into the online portal and the solution’s overall performance is of high quality.
