Turmoil in the world of media
The future of media is digital – which is why media companies such as television and radio stations are currently implementing technical upgrades. As an independent service provider, SQS supports the seamless integration of digital media solutions into existing IT systems through software quality management and testing.
The digitalisation of media companies presents a number of challenges – from both an IT and organisational perspective. Existing media need to be transferred to different digital formats while simultaneously safeguarding internal company processes. Intensive software quality management and testing makes a significant contribution to the success of such projects.
When working with BBC Northern Ireland on a digitisation project, for example, SQS helped establish a quality management framework and facilitated the seamless integration of the new media solution into the existing system.
The specific services we provided for this project were:
- Staging of workshops to ensure that BBC employees received as much information as possible about the new system
- Development of a detailed test strategy and test plan
- Creation of test specifications for testing the system requirements that had been identified
- Use of the HP Quality Center tool to support test processes and monitor test activities
The customer now benefits from the following:
- Clear overview and transparency of the test strategy, test plan and specifications
- A high level of software quality
- Immediate access to test results and further developments using the Quality Center
- Reusable test specifications to simplify future software releases
- Identification and rectification of errors before going live
- A high level of confidence in system quality by project managers
