What We Do

Software Testing

As world class implementers of portal, collaboration and e-commerce web solutions – we know a thing or two about testing. 

Our globally distributed Test team bullet-proofs every web solution we deliver both from a functional and performance perspective.  We also provide testing services to our Software Engineering customers who either have a staffing need, have concerns about the quality and performance of a particular application and those who desire to outsource their testing capability.

Performance Health Check

Our most popular software testing offering is the Performance Health Check (PHC). Ascendant’s PHC provides an ala carte menu of application performance assessments, each targeted to meet your specific optimization objectives. In all cases our team of professionals will work with you to understand your symptoms of poor system performance, diagnose the core issues causing these symptoms and ultimately prescribe a set of actionable remedies.

    Choose one or any combination of the following assessments:
  • Load & Scalability Assessment E.G. Does the application respond within 5 seconds at a load of 500 concurrent users processing 5000 business transactions per hour?
  • Capacity Assessment E.G. Will the system support our company’s growth Rate of 30% per annum?
  • Stress Assessment E.G. Will 5000 Concurrent Hits crash my system?
  • Failover & Endurance Assessment E.G. How will 100 active users be affected if a new build is released during business hours? Does the response time degrade if there are 100 concurrent users active on the system for 24 hours?
  • End-2-End Performance Assessment What’s the impact on other dependent or superlative applications given an update of a core system?
