Testronic,the leader in international quality assurance (QA), localization QA, and
compliance for the film, television and games industries, continues to invest in its testing and automation device
farms, designed for entertainment platforms and content owners to test their
service on a growing number of devices and in all territories ahead of a
channel launch. The investment includes the purchase of additional Witbe robots, Suitest, TestComplete, televisions,
and handheld devices. The device farms, located across two continents in North
America and Europe, now contain more robots to aid in the automated testing of
services due to the increased demand for outsourced testing services during
regional lockdowns and the reduction of in-house testing teams.
Jason Gish, Testronic
President of Film & TV, said: “Business operations are going through trying
times right now, having to decrease overheads and deal with regional lockdowns including
stay-at-home orders for their staff. Platforms and content owners are turning
to Testronic to outsource the testing of their content and services on a
perpetually growing and representative device farm. As a result, we have
increased our investment in our test devices and automation framework, staffed
by automation engineers and expert testers, to enhance our suite of automated services
and technologies including Witbe robots and various consumer devices for
streaming content.”
Testronic’s large device farms of Smart TVs,
mobile devices, and set-top boxes provides automated quality control testing
and is staffed by automation engineers and QC experts who have developed multiple
automation testing frameworks and technologies to deliver automated QC. Designed to provide economies of scale and
deliver fast real-time monitoring and testing reports, the testing farms can also test
using devices in any location without the need to be physically present.
Devices
available in the testing farms include devices such as Apple
TV, Fire TV, Samsung, LG, and Roku, among others which can be tested from
remote locations in multiple territories and countries.
With the increased investment in automation,
Testronic can test and capture KPIs for:
·
Service availability
·
Video and audio quality and
availability
·
Measure load times
·
App launch time
·
Video initial buffer time

And much more…
