Finnish software
testing is a crucial quality control phase in the process of Finnish software
globalization. Target users of Finnish software have the same high standards
for functionality as users of the original software. In order to meet the
expectations of Finnish software users, a localization company must use
experienced Finnish software testers and follow a defined software testing
process.
Whether it is performed
on-site or off-site, Finnish software testing should be executed by
professional, native-speaking specialists. Working from a thorough test plan
and test scripts/cases, the Finnish testing team will use a combination of
manual and automated tests, as well as bug tracking tools, to locate and fix
critical software defects before release.
It is very common
for Finnish software testing professionals (typically translators and
engineers) to work side-by-side with a company's own expert users to go through
the following software testing phases:
Finnish
Software Internationalization Testing
Before Finnish
software translation begins, Finnish software testing professionals test the
source language software for international support and localizability. Finnish
software internationalization testing saves time and money by exposing
potential trouble areas early in the localization process.
Finnish
Software Localization Testing
After Finnish
software translation, testing specialists review the Finnish software in
context to check for any linguistic or cosmetic issues. Linguistic testing
deals with all language-related issues of a localized application, including
currency symbols, locale-specific text, and more. Cosmetic testing deals with
all visual issues such as the proper display of menus, messages and dialog
boxes.
Finnish
Software Functionality Validation or Testing
After your Finnish
software has been localized, tests are performed using a variety of platforms
and test scripts to verify that your application works properly for your target
users. Testing concerns at this phase include ensuring that the application
correctly installs and that all features work as they did in the original
source language version of the application.
