While dealing with QA Outsourcing partner first, companies are known to have some preconceptions regarding the differences in work style, partially originating from particular company culture as well as between the teams – an Agile and a traditional ones. Below it is a list of ordinary misunderstandings on QA Outsourcing.
The very first concern that a company has while it considers quality assured services outsourcing is if there are any communication difficulties they may face since two different cultures are partners.
Testers in Ukraine are usually inclined to do their work independently in order to submit the end result as soon as weeks-long heavy work is finished.

In a standard team, a tester can offer solutions or solve a challenge that requires innovation or improvisation, but is limited owing to the team’s horizontal structure.
An Agile team is built quite flexible to be able to manage similar situations and not to endanger scope of the project or its deadline.
Priorities and requirements are frequently up for debate, therefore it is easier for an Agile team to consider new input. Teammates on Agile teams can also choose tasks they are good at, that correspond with their best skills, which provides better flexibility as a team per project.
MISUNDERSTANDING 4: TESTERS CANNOT ADJUST TO CHANGE
In a non-Agile relationship, a project’s changes can crash the project’s flow and create a productivity lull.
This usually has been an issue on work flow, where a manager of the project is to get the appropriate approval to adjust to the change the project experiencing.
An Agile team, by the way, works in order to adjust to the changes promptly, and they are internally communicated, as a team, and also with the client.

A majority of outsourcing companies that provide quality assured services observe traditional software delivery procedures and integrate them with their own practices – the best ones. At TestMatick, we tend to be as lean as possible but also adjust to requirements of our clients.
At the beginning of each Agile project, the team members agree upon procedures that are followed accordingly over the period of the project’s life. An Agile team hand in hand prepares and creates the work procedures for the project, therefore the testers, PM/SM and every another member of the team has own input into the process itself.
MISUNDERSTANDING 6: VARIOUS PROCEDURES INVOLVE CONFUSION
This allows our teams to have a clear picture of the final goal and helps to understand goals heading towards the project.
While looking for an outsourcing software testing company it is vital for every company to understand totally the capabilities and reveal their expectations before the project and during it.

MISUNDERSTANDING 7: TESTERS DEMAND TO MAKE MORE EFFORT TO COMPREHEND REQUIREMENTS
It is the aim of each tester to understand what business value a software system has. A tester should always be advised on the project’s big picture and how it influences business goals of the client.
During the client’s onboarding process, TestMatick constantly encourages them to explain the significance of the project to their business and explain the impact that the project will also have.
