Rosy outlook: Focus is on business applications
Specsavers has contracted SQS Software Quality Systems to provide testing in a three-year managed testing services contract worth €5.8 million.
The SQS team will deliver end-to-end testing of Specsavers’ business applications, from performance through to automated regression testing, with focus on raising quality, reducing risk and increasing the throughput of change.
SQS director David Cotterell described the deal as “probably one of the largest pure-play managed testing service contracts to be awarded in the retail sector”.
He said the service will be provided from SQS’ off-shore facility in Pune, India.
Specsavers CIO John Lister notes that his firm depends heavily on “robust and effective technology” to service its 1,500 stores and 26,000 staff.
“It’s therefore critical that we have a software testing and QA process that helps us to deliver quality software solutions quickly and efficiently.”
