What We Do

Re-Imagine Testing with algoQA The Digital economy is pushing software companies to refresh products in short order. Companies are under tremendous cost-and-time pressure. Faster time-to-market with no compromise on quality & reliability, at a lower cost, is the need. Software testing in such a scenario needs to be quick and responsive to the constantly evolving software. This is where algoQA, by Algoshack Technologies steps-in. algoQA is a born-agile platform that transforms software quality engineering by enabling a design first outlook. We have re-imagined testing with algoQA, a low code, no code platform that can auto generate test cases and test scripts that can be played back in technologies of your choice, giving you the freedom to not be locked-in to an automation platform. The low code / no code, easy to learn platform is technology agnostic, and covers Web, Desktop, Mobile & Hybrid Applications, as well as applications for Robotic Process Automation and Embedded technologies. It supports UI Based Test Automation, API Test Automation and Load Test Automation, by producing an optimal number of test cases written in Gherkin language along with datasets, and executable test scripts. The platform produces scripts in the technology of choice and the scripts can be executed anywhere. All it takes is a simple profiling of the application under test using Drag & Drop & Wizards.
