Digital enterprises often face challenges in maintaining application stability while accelerating time-to-market, especially with evolving requirements and skill gaps. At AMZ, we bridge this gap through our Agile Testing expertise, enabling seamless sprint integration and improved test coverage. From QA planning and sprint-based estimations to implementing metrics that matter, we empower teams to deliver quality software faster. Our deep-rooted capabilities in DevOps, CI/CD, and test automation, combined with performance and functional testing, ensure every sprint delivers a reliable, high-quality product ready for release.
AMZ’s Agile Testing experts empower enterprises to unlock real business value by accelerating their Agile transformation. Through a strategic blend of test automation, continuous integration, and a collaborative distributed Agile framework, we’ve enabled clients to shorten release cycles, enhance product quality, and reduce time-to-market. Our agile approach ensures every sprint delivers measurable outcomes—leveraging smart governance, globally aligned scrum practices, and clearly defined ‘done’ criteria to ensure delivery excellence across the board.
AMZ’s Distributed Agile Testing Framework empowers enterprises to scale their Agile initiatives seamlessly across global teams. With proven expertise in methodologies like Scrum, BDD, ATDD, and SAFe, our framework enables faster, more reliable software delivery. Through the implementation of Scrum of Scrums (SoS), we streamline communication and coordination across large, distributed teams—ensuring alignment and agility. By embedding quality engineering and automation early in the development lifecycle, we minimize defects, accelerate releases, and support continuous integration for high-performing Agile environments.
AMZ’s Distributed Agile Testing Framework enables global enterprises to adopt and scale Agile practices with ease, ensuring seamless implementation of methodologies like Scrum, BDD, ATDD, and SAFe. Our expertise in Scrum of Scrums (SoS) helps large teams overcome challenges in communication, governance, and time-to-market, driving alignment and efficiency across distributed environments. By integrating test automation early in the process and leveraging continuous integration, we help clients accelerate releases, reduce defects, and enhance the overall quality of their software.
To stay ahead in the Agile development cycle, enterprises must evolve their testing approach. Testing must be integrated early in the development process, shifting-left to align with the sprint’s needs, including clear acceptance criteria and accurate testing effort estimation. Automated testing should begin at the unit and API levels, with high coverage, while critical end-to-end scenarios are handled at the GUI level. Establishing performance benchmarks, automating single-user performance tests, and enhancing tool integration for continuous deployment ensures faster, higher-quality releases with real-time metrics tracking and resource optimization.
AMZ’s Agile Testing services combine pre-built test suites seamlessly integrated into the development workflow, ensuring early defect detection, reducing redundancy, and enhancing overall application quality throughout the development lifecycle. Our comprehensive 6-step process, from sprint planning to execution, enables our Core and Flex teams to deliver true agility. Maximize your Agile project outcomes with a tailored maturity assessment by AMZ’s Agile Test Experts, ensuring your organization’s testing practices are optimized for success.
Quality Gates are a vital component of AMZ’s Agile Testing framework, incorporating a blend of automated checks like unit and integration test passes, code quality assessments, and peer reviews to ensure that products meet the highest standards before production. These gates, tailored to each client’s needs, enforce quality and compliance while promoting smooth delivery. To address governance and communication challenges in Agile adoption, AMZ has developed a lean governance model, providing timely, relevant updates to stakeholders. Our metrics framework tracks sprint velocity, burn rates, and other critical metrics, ensuring transparency and confidence across all teams for optimal release readiness.
