Who is Startquestion

Startquestion is a leading platform for creating surveys, quizzes, and forms to gather feedback and data. The team, divided into two groups, focuses on delivering value to users through features that aid in organizational feedback and meet goals related to system performance, stability, and security.

Challenge:

Startquestion's quality assurance relied heavily on manual testing, a resource-intensive process that was becoming impractical due to the complexity of their application and the frequency of updates. This led to an urgent need for an automated testing solution that could handle their extensive and interrelated functionalities.

Solution:
After researching alternatives, Startquestion selected BugBug for its simplicity, comprehensive features, and compatibility with the complex mechanisms within their application. BugBug's low entry threshold and advanced features such as custom variables and reusable components significantly reduced test development time and complexity.

Impact:
Using BugBug, Startquestion automated critical user paths and created nightly test suites for the production environment, providing rapid feedback on application integrity. Regression testing was tailored to the pre-production environment, allowing for targeted testing based on recent changes or additions. This process not only streamlined testing, but also provided faster feedback after deployments.

In summary, the introduction of BugBug into Startquestion's workflow resulted in significant time savings, increased productivity, and a more stable release process, illustrating the profound impact that automated testing solutions can have on quality assurance and development efficiency.
