Quality and Testing
Quality and Testing
emSigner follows a structured and disciplined approach to quality and testing to ensure reliability, security, and consistent performance across its SaaS platform and distributed integration ecosystem. Quality practices are embedded throughout the product lifecycle, from design and development to deployment and post-release monitoring.
Secure and Quality-Driven Development
emSigner follows an internal Secure Software Development Lifecycle (Secure SDLC), where quality and security considerations are integrated at every stage of product development. This approach helps identify and address functional, performance, and security risks early in the lifecycle.
Development and testing activities are aligned with industry best practices and relevant compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2.
Testing Practices
To ensure stability and correctness of core signing workflows and integrations, emSigner performs multiple levels of testing, including:
Unit Testing Individual components and services are validated to ensure correct behavior.
System and Functional Testing End-to-end testing of core product features such as document signing, workflows, notifications, and integrations.
Regression Testing Existing functionality is revalidated during every planned release to prevent unintended impact from new changes.
Performance and Load Testing The platform is tested to handle expected transaction volumes, concurrent users, and peak usage scenarios.
Security Testing (VAPT) Regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing are conducted to identify and remediate security weaknesses.
Third-Party Security Testing
In addition to internal testing, emSigner undergoes third-party security and penetration testing. These assessments provide independent validation of the platform’s security posture and help ensure alignment with industry security standards.
Release and Change Management
emSigner follows planned release cycles to ensure controlled and predictable delivery of product updates. Each release undergoes defined quality checks before deployment.
Changes are carefully reviewed to maintain platform stability, especially in environments with customer-specific configurations or private deployments.
Post-Release Monitoring and Improvements
After release, the platform is continuously monitored to identify potential issues in real-world usage. This includes:
Monitoring system behavior and performance
Addressing reported issues through hotfixes where required
Continuous improvement based on operational insights and customer feedback
Continuous Improvement
Quality and testing practices at emSigner are continuously reviewed and enhanced to keep pace with evolving security threats, regulatory expectations, and customer needs. This ensures the platform remains dependable, secure, and scalable as usage grows.
