QA Center of Excellence

Geval6’s Testing Center of Excellence (TCOE) ensures we use the latest in Techniques, Processes and Tools to enable Software Testing as a service to our customers. As focus on quality rises, so does the need to perform testing in an industrialised and cost-efficient way.

The Testing Challenge

01
85%

Bugs found post-production cost 6x more to fix

02
40%

Projects fail due to inadequate test coverage

03
$1.7T

Lost annually from poor software quality

04

Faster delivery cycles with full test automation

Common Pain Points We Solve

Manual testing bottlenecks — slowing down release cycles
No API test coverage — contract and integration failures slip through
Security gaps surfacing in production — expensive and damaging
Performance not tested until go-live — costly surprises at scale
Flaky, fragmented automation — no unified framework or strategy
IVR & event-driven flows untested — customer-facing failures
