Our custom software solutions can become an efficient method for both industry leaders and small companies to reduce expenses and retain a competitive advantage.
Quality Management
Testing is an important step in every software development process. Software testing procedures are imperative to ensure reduction of the product's defect rate and improve quality - normally they account for over 40% of the entire software development process.
Our Mission: "Deliver 'quality' software testing services to software organizations and act as software and IT service quality catalyst."
ITShastra focuses on 3 primary levels of testing:
Component Testing
Component testing is used to check whether program function is consistence with program design document. In this testing we are basically cover each and every component of the screen by considering different types of test views related to the function, abnormal operation, exception etc. In this testing we consider each component of the screen as an entity, for example:
Check if the text field accepts only number or not?
Check the max length of the text field.
Check if the default value present or not.
Unit Testing
Unit testing is used to check the execution path of the module, function, and procedure of the system. The test is conducted with the help of normal data and abnormal data. This testing includes the different factors like statement coverage, branch coverage, loop processing, abnormality, and circulation, etc. With the help of this unit testing we check to see if all the statements in the code are executed or not so as to avoid the dead code statement. It checks all the branches and the execution path of the code. It ensures that all the internal methods of the program are executed and properly integrated with the program.
System Testing
This is very important in the testing phase. System testing is used to check whether the application is consistent with user requirements. System testing covers different types of testing views like:
Application
Application test view is used to check whether the system is running normally or not.
Performance
In this view we check over the performance of the system by considering system response time, process execution time, etc.
Reliability
In this view we check the reliability of the system. We also check the reliability of the system for managing the user process and also check the system performance time. In the load checking view we review the load of the system. For example, suppose the system has the capacity to support 50 users, we then check the system with more than 100 users. The same thing is applicable to database.
Load checking

Maintainence & Support
At ITShastra, we recognize the challenges of maintaining legacy applications within the constraints of a limited IT budgets, staff attrition, inadequate/ obsolete application documentation, and the difficulties in recruiting qualified staff with legacy skills. Besides rectifying application problems, our consultants also enhance your legacy applications to meet your current business imperatives. If required, we can also undertake direct support to end users of your applications.
Working with ITShastra allows you to pass on your troubles to us, enabling you to focus on your strategic initiatives to keep you a step ahead of competition. We combine essential technology skills, business understanding and process discipline to take an integrated program-management approach to maintenance and support. Based on your unique application environment and expectations, we recommend a suitable delivery organization and interaction process, with periodic reviews and escalation procedures. Our services portfolio in application maintenance and support includes:
Enhancements
Enhancement services primarily involve modifications of existing applications, based on incremental needs and in line with new business requirements. As applications grow in usage, enterprises encounter multiple requests for marginal changes. These requests may be related to usability, the need for micro-features, additions and enhancements, etc.
Transition and Execution
This is Level 1 application maintenance support, where we provide real-time support to production systems. Problem reports are passed on to the Production Support Team through the help-desk (independent service) and our teams analyze the problem and identify its resolution. This support can be executed on site or remotely depending on connectivity and sensitivity of production system.
Level 2 and 3 Support services
In Level 2 service, our Production Support Group initially makes the first level analysis of the problems and will then report the defect to the software maintenance team (SMT), which normally operates entirely from the ITShastra offshore center. The criticality of the problem to organization function is decided: Immediate fixes (L2) need to be provided in short timeframes, whereas fixing other problems can be done as part of a planned service pack release on the application (L3). We work on mutually agreed services levels with you.
Product Development
If you are planning to develop a software product, you know that a product is a more cumbersome and mean beast than a bespoke application. We know how to design and implement software products, and have been doing so since 2001.
