What clients say

“After connecting with some large local players who have D365, we found that it was taking them at a minimum about 3 weeks with 3 resources to get through the testing required for each patch. With the impressive test automation developed in partnership with Assurity, the project team managed to run all 400 tests plus any resulting fixes in 5 days with 1 person! Even Microsoft says the best practice standards are two weeks.”

Toni Warren

Test Practice Manager, 2degrees

“Throughout the engagement, I have been impressed with the quality of delivery and professionalism baked into the Assurity delivery. I’ve had four touchpoints, and the experience was superb. Their technical knowledge is right where it needs to be, and the resultant solution is quite satisfying. We request and use the automated tests as required and call on Assurity for test expertise to complement our own team’s skills, as we are finance professionals, not test experts.”

Richard Swift

Finance Systems Manager, Enable Networks

“We’ve got to where we are with minimal disruption to the business. This is a measure of the value Assurity has provided, because it means in turn that we’ve continued looking after our customers without interruption. Testing helped ensure the system was implemented with minimal disruption to the business, and the time required for subsequent ERP upgrades has diminished substantially.”

Assurity is tool and product agnostic, using the right tools for specific problems within the client’s environment. We recommend using Open-Source test automation tools and often employ Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) to create tests written in business language. For test management, planning, analysis, execution, and monitoring, we use various tools, which may include existing client tools or new tools assessed and approved. Visualisation tools such as Kanban or sprint boards are used for managing progress, and tools like JIRA are also mentioned. We build automation tests using software engineering best practices like source control (e.g., GitHub) and static code analysis tools like SonarQube to ensure assets are robust, maintainable, and enduring.

Assurity’s testing strategy is designed to align with enterprise-level quality assurance goals by embedding quality at every stage of the project lifecycle. Our approach includes early and continuous acceptance testing, risk-based testing to prioritise high-impact areas, and comprehensive test management. This ensures that projects meet quality criteria, reduce risks, and deliver reliable outcomes, ultimately supporting the organisation’s strategic objectives.
