QUALITY ASSURANCE & RISK MANAGEMENT
Quality is not just a phase, it’s a culture.
At STS, our Quality Assurance & Risk Management offering helps you build and maintain robust, secure, and defect-free software by embedding quality at every stage of the software development lifecycle.
Whether you need a full QA strategy, targeted audits, or certification-driven processes, our approach — grounded in the Software Quality Assurance Maturity Model (SQAMM™) — empowers your organization to release confidently, minimize risk, and boost brand credibility.
END-TO-END QUALITY ASSURANCE
We offer a complete QA solution that ensures quality is not left to chance. From planning through post-release, we manage the entire QA lifecycle with the precision and oversight needed for enterprise-grade systems.
SQA HEALTHCHECK™
An initial diagnostic of your QA processes, maturity level, and gaps.
UNIT TESTING™
Low-level validation of logic, functions, and business rules across your application stack.
A structured, step-by-step framework to guide and scale your QA operations efficiently.
SQA LIFECYCLE™
In-depth review of business logic alignment with technical workflows to ensure your product delivers on both purpose and performance.
STUDY CORE ANALYSIS
SOFTWARE AUDIT & QA CERTIFICATIONS
Build customer and regulatory trust through audit-ready, standards-aligned processes.
Our audit team works alongside your leadership to define measurable KPIs and establish transparent governance around quality, from backlog grooming to production rollout.
Software Audit & QA Certifications
We prepare your software and QA processes for ISO, PCI DSS, SOC 2, and other industry compliance needs.
Tools & Infrastructure
We assess and optimize the test tools, CI/CD pipelines, and environment configurations powering your QA ecosystem.
SOFTWARE RISK MANAGEMENT
We help you identify, quantify, and mitigate risks across your application and infrastructure before they become business-impacting.
Risk Profiling
Evaluate critical paths, high-impact modules, and dependencies.
Implement shift-left testing to find defects during planning and design, not just post-development.
Early Defect Prevention
Impact Simulation
Use synthetic test data, performance models, and failover testing to simulate high-risk conditions.
By integrating these practices, we ensure your releases are stable and reliable, even in high-volume or regulated environments.
SECURITY AUDITS
Security is quality, especially when your systems manage sensitive data. Our security-focused QA services help prevent breaches, compliance violations, and reputational damage.
Penetration Testing
Simulate real-world attack scenarios to uncover vulnerabilities before threat actors do.
Code Review & Static Analysis
Identify insecure coding patterns or third-party risks early in the SDLC.
Security Governance
Align your testing strategy with OWASP Top 10, GDPR, POPIA, and NIST standards.
PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKING & INFRASTRUCTURE SIZING
Ensure your systems can scale before your users demand it!
Load Simulation & Stress Testing
Evaluate how your infrastructure performs under expected and extreme loads.
Benchmark CPU, memory, and I/O loads across configurations to right-size environments cost-effectively.
Infrastructure Sizing
Continuous Monitoring Recommendations
Set up telemetry and alerting for ongoing SLA assurance.
