QualityLogic and an anonymised online retailer: Ecommerce platform functional testing case analysed
Verdict: what is checkable
The evidence grade (this site's label for how a case is sourced: primary with client or press confirmation, secondary when vendor-hosted only.) is secondary: the only source is the vendor's own page; the case publishes no metric, so nothing in it can be checked as a figure. [ev-1692]
Client profile as published
- Client
an educational children's toy company
(the vendor's description; the vendor does not name the client)- Segment
- Ecommerce and D2C (direct to consumer: a brand that sells its own products online to shoppers without a retailer in between.)
- Region
- not stated in the source
- Channels
- ecommerce and mobile
- Size indicators
- none given
The client description and size indicators are quoted from the source; segment, region and channels are this site's classification. [ev-1692]
Systems in scope
- Ecommerce platform: named in The Client section ("a desktop and mobile web storefront" built and hosted by a third-party e-commerce development and hosting company)
- Mobile commerce: named in The Issue section ("customized native mobile apps") and The Outcome section ("testing of their mobile app development")
- Data migration: named in The Issue section (transfer from the hosted site) and The Outcome section ("the migration process")
- Integrations: named in The Outcome section ("the many databases and third-party product management solutions") and The Client section (an API and backend systems to track and manage inventory)
Where the source names each system is quoted or summarised from the case page. [ev-1692]
Problem as stated
The client sells educational toys for children, first on eBay and then through a web store built and hosted by an outside firm. As it grew it moved development, hosting and QA in house and planned native mobile apps. Its new small QA team needed more staff for the move off the hosted site, and the client could not hire skilled, affordable QA engineers locally against large tech companies. [ev-1692]
The client found it difficult to hire qualified and affordable QA engineers(quoted from the source)
Approach
- Testing types
- functional, mobile and data-migration (main scope: functional)

- What was out of scope.
- Whether the client is still a client.
- Date of the work.
Reading notes for a buyer
This case speaks to the scenario “Ecommerce platform migration” and feeds dimension D1 (Retail case study evidence) of the methodology. A question to put to QualityLogic:
How long did the added QA engineers stay, and what did migration testing check across the client's databases and product management tools? [ev-1692]
