Acutest
Acutest, a technology consultancy, specialises in Quality Assurance and Software Testing of IT change programmes and accelerating business as usual change. Our mission is to reduce the cost of change, increase the speed of change, and improve the governance of change. We enable our customers to deliver working products and services on time and with confidence.
-
See through the customer’s eyes: These are the eyes that matter. If a service does not work from the customer’s perspective, it simply does not work.
- Begin with the big risks: We are experts in risk based testing: our pro tip is to start with the big risks so you can find the most pressing problems at the end of the project (which is not a desirable situation).
- Fail fast: Acutest prioritises early problem detection in the lifecycle, ideally during the requirements and design stages where over half of the issues typically arise.
