Functional Testing

• We believe that no game is perfect right out of
  development. That is exactly our focus area.
  Identifying bugs, errors or defects is part of
  the Software testing we perform. When we look at
  functional testing, our testers cover quite a few
  areas
• Identify Performance issues Crashes, Freezes
  and Progression Blockages.
• Gameplay issues
• Graphic issues
• Audio visual sync issues
• Additionally our testers test for a situation or
  event that does not get triggered at the right
  moment or gets incorrectly triggered on at the
  wrong moment.
• Movement Controls
• Combat Controls
• Menu transitions
• Area transitions

Gameplay Testing

• Story Arc Any game has a progression flow.
• It is designed in a fashion to grasp the users
  attention and carry them away. Like a wave. For
  this to happen, every subcomponent of the
  progression system needs to be supporting each
  other. The events at the end of the story arc
  should support the events/actions of the user
  during progression. This, in turn, needs to be
  supported by the choices made in the beginning.
  This is usually provided in a variety of ways
• Information Codices
• Storytelling
• Game testing is a two-pronged affair. iXie
  ensures the progression flow of story arc or
  character development arc is in sync with the
  expected start end visions of design. To
  achieve this, our testers perform
• Progression testing
• Side Quests / Mini-game testing

Compliance Testing

• Game compliance ensures that the game adheres to
  the regulations laid out by the manufacturers and
  clears the submissions at first go.
• At iXie, we focus on the following compliance
  testing
• Sony Technical Requirements Checklist (TRC)
• Microsoft Technical Certification Requirements
  (TCR)
• iOS Compliance Checklist
• Microsoft Games for Windows LIVE (GFWL)

Compatibility Testing

• Compatibility ensures not just the stability of
  the game but also ensures that the performance
  remains optimal in the supported hardware. For
  effective compatibility testing, we at iXie-
• Perform inventory checks regularly to stay up to
  date with the market.
• Perform Game QA on the most trending/popular
  devices at the moment in relevant geographies.
  The devices will be tested on devices ranging
  from top-end devices to the lowest compatible
  device.
• Manage and improve the installed OS versions to
  ensure most supported ranges are covered.

Ad-hoc Destructive Testing
All the games that come out now have global
launches. What does that mean? The entire world
has access to your game. Millions of players will
play your game, meaning millions of different
player types. Ad-hoc and destructive testing can
be done at any point in time based on feedback.
Everyone is going to have an opinion, the opinion
that gathers population can be responded to in
the form of an update. Ad-hoc testing and
destructive testing at iXie ensure that your game
can respond to whims fancies of everyone, in a
positive manner.

Multi-Player Execution
Does your game support multiplayer? Well,
network testing ensures your multiplayer mode is
top notch. Network testing essentially tests how
the game reacts to connectivity over the Internet
/ local network. At iXie, our testers sole
objective is to deliver 100 guaranteed
satisfaction to the user if the game is connected
as per the recommended network specifications. We
have multiplayer QA teams who can provide
support. Their support is based on real world
simulation game testing performed in our testing
labs.

Integration Testing
The introduction of automation is a boon as it
takes care of regression in order to handle
integration tests. This allows us at iXie to
solely focus on the most critical gaming aspects
which allow us to provide you with the best of
our service.
