SNS has experience in working with different types of clients who have varied needs. It is the nature of the need that defines what kind of team model is best suited for the project and whether we use an onsite, hybrid, or offshore model.

SNS has flexibility in staffing to allow for tailoring the team model.  The factors we consider when determining the optimal mix are:

• complexity of business requirements
• complexity of platform and testing environment
• iterative development approach with tight deadlines
• repetitive nature of tasks
• rate of change in functionality (new product versus maintenance)

Regardless of the type of team model used, SNS has a well defined communication process, which enable clients to have an insight on their projects on a real time basis. SNS uses various tools like PHP collab, wiki pages, a proprietary e-dashboard tool which enables project co-ordination, monitoring and also acts as a standard knowledge repository of all test artifacts.

The strong processes built at SNS help in delivering a 24x7 test environment for the clients. Illustrated below is typical rapid testing cycle over a week.
