Testing & Quality Assurance

CruiseAppy employs a thorough testing and quality assurance (QA) process to ensure platform reliability, security, and performance. Manual tests are used throughout the development lifecycle.

Testing Strategies

  • Integration Testing: Interactions between components (e.g., booking, payment, API) are checked with manual integration tests.
  • End-to-End (E2E) Testing: User journeys are manually tested to simulate real-world scenarios.
  • API Testing: REST API endpoints are manually tested for correct responses, error handling, and security.
  • Regression Testing: Manual regression tests are run before each release to catch new issues.

Quality Assurance Processes

  • Code Reviews: All code changes are peer-reviewed for quality, security, and maintainability.
  • User Acceptance Testing (UAT): Key workflows are validated by stakeholders before deployment.
  • Performance Testing: Load and stress tests are performed to ensure the platform can handle expected traffic and data volumes.
  • Bug Tracking: Issues are tracked and prioritized using a ticketing system.

Additional Notes

  • Test coverage is monitored and improved continuously.
  • QA environments mirror production as closely as possible.
  • Documentation is updated alongside code to ensure accuracy.
