Software Testing
System Integration Testing:
Banks and financial institutions require system integration testing when developing customized software products or adding interfaces to existing core applications. This is also necessary when making enhancements to existing software to remove limitations and align with evolving customer relationship practices. By conducting comprehensive integration testing, banks can ensure that new application releases are integrated seamlessly with their core applications and meet their business needs. When system integrators fail to carry out thorough integrated system testing, functional testing can be extended to encompass System Integration Testing and User Acceptance Testing. Our expertise in the banking and financial industries provides us with the knowledge required to understand the core application's architecture and interfaces. Our domain-specific approach adheres to best practices and ensures successful integration testing completion. Using functional scenarios based on an agile testing approach, we test modules simultaneously with development, reducing errors and ensuring faster time-to-market and an outstanding return on investment. We devise reliable test scenarios, conditions, cases, scripts and test data guidelines to ensure full functionality coverage. Our proven test execution methodologies and defect management processes guarantee testing completion within set time frames.
User Acceptance Testing:
The technology leaders of today are facing immense challenges in terms of delivering complex solutions within limited resources and time. In the banking and financial services sector, there is a critical demand for software that is “first-time right”. However, the constantly evolving business landscape has left organizations with insufficient time for thorough testing of new software.
NOMOS Technology Solutions offers a User Acceptance Testing service that allows software vendors and business software users to ensure that their software is functionally fit for purpose.

At NOMOS, the testing process works parallel with the software development cycle, which brings considerable time and cost benefits for their clients. They start with business requirement documents and use Black Box testing, an approach that enables end-to-end testing scenarios. Their aim is to detect any critical defects in the existing system beforehand.
As an independent software testing company, NOMOS Technology Solutions provides extensive and comprehensive software testing capabilities that help organizations meet their objectives. They also bring considerable experience to UAT projects, ensuring successful project outcomes.
Business As Usual Testing:
In the dynamic field of banking and financial services, applications often undergo changes and upgrades, which can put stress on the smooth functioning of your business activities. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that such changes do not adversely affect your operations, which can be achieved by availing our Business as Usual testing services. We provide comprehensive testing services that cover bug fixes, parameter changes, and minor enhancements to applications that require no separate release, to guarantee uninterrupted business activities during the implementation of these changes.
Our dedicated domain-focused test teams collaborate with you to conduct BAU testing, either during the testing phase of the application or after release for production. We work towards ensuring that your business continues to run smoothly, even during modifications made to your applications. We also prepare a regression suite to test the base functionality of the application before conducting the testing. This regression suite is updated and automated using suitable automation tool sets from top vendors.
We conduct testing using customer-specific parameters to resolve your specific issues/bugs, and identified defects are raised to the development team for correction. Finally, the regression test pack is updated after required reviews and revisions, and the defects that are re-tested and closed are saved to a defect repository for future use.
Performance Testing:
Banks and financial institutions face challenges regarding software performance such as errors during live operation, failure under peak demand, and inconsistent responses. We provide specialized solutions to address such issues by conducting performance testing under realistic load conditions, introducing domain perspective, and implementing test strategies. Our rich tool report aids in optimizing the system to align with business requirements. Let us help you mitigate risks and optimize your software performance with our expertise.
Usability Testing:
Usability testing is essential to ensure the success of a software application. Even if the application has a multitude of features and is error-free, it is considered subpar if the user encounters difficulties in learning or navigating the interface. The consequences of poor usability include decreased productivity and user dissatisfaction.
Our usability testing service is intended to identify potential obstacles that the user may encounter while using the application. We determine the time required to complete tasks and assess the user's likely satisfaction level. Our testing service provides several benefits, including reduced costs and time spent on extensive user training programs, faster usage speed, and greater adoption of applications by business users.
Automated Software Testing:
Automated Software Testing Services are essential for banks and financial organizations faced with lengthy and repetitive regression test efforts during software upgrades and application changes across branches. The solution to these challenges is implementing well-designed automated regression test suites that use appropriate automation tools. Test automation offers significant benefits such as reduced time taken per testing iteration, savings in manpower and associated costs, improved regression test coverage within short time frames, flexibility, radical improvement in consistency and uniformity of the testing process, and easy modification of reusable components. Our company develops and automates Regression Test suites for enhancing software functionality, ensuring that any changes in code do not affect existing software functionality while reducing overall maintenance testing costs and timelines. We provide test automation services using a wide variety of tool sets from esteemed vendors.
Web Testing:
The banking industry is utilizing technology to provide online products and services worldwide. Web-based applications must perform at a high level, ensuring speed, interactivity, and security. The seamless functioning of applications across various platforms, servers, browsers, and languages is critical. Also, due to the rise in online frauds, such systems must be protected from unauthorized access of users while being user-friendly and simple for customers' usage. Besides, web-based services complement traditional business practices, underscoring the need for rigorous testing.
It requires domain-focused testing teams with ample expertise to validate web-based applications. NOMOS has extensive experience in successful testing of Arimor SSl, Collateral Monitoring System, Indus Collection System, and e-Orion releases across domains such as Private, Credit, Investment, Retail, Core, Lending, and Corporate Banking. By and large, web-based applications have made life convenient but require strict testing. Thus, it has become crucial to ensure that these applications face scrutiny before successful implementation, providing a seamless and secure user experience.
Financial Product Testing:
Financial institutions face various testing challenges when it comes to financial product testing, and product vendors and system integrators must cater to these specific requirements. These challenges can be divided into two categories, coverage and the complexity of multiples. Coverage includes functional coverage, code coverage, compatibility with browsers and platforms, performance, and scalability. The complexity of multiples is due to software in the banking and financial services sector having to be constantly updated or changed to meet clients' rapidly changing business requirements, as well as regulatory and compliance issues. The complexity of multiples is seen in areas such as versions, builds, technology upgrades, interfaces, and test iterations. We assist global financial product organizations in managing these challenges through our expert teams, which provide ongoing testing support for major and minor releases, patch and bug fixes, customized versions for specific clients, and automated regression test packs.
