How We Deliver

Quality Engineering
built into every release.

Every deployment that leaves Shelorve is properly tested — not smoke-tested under time pressure at the end of a sprint. Test automation, defect pattern analysis, and CI/CD quality gates are how we work, built in from day one of every engagement.

Our Approach

Quality is enforced by the process.
Not by review cycles at the end of a release.

Shelorve embeds quality engineering from sprint one. The test strategy is defined before the first line of code is written. The test suite is a first-class deliverable, maintained with the same standards as the application code it covers.

When the engagement ends, the client inherits a test suite that covers the system — not a set of manual test scripts nobody will run, and not a coverage report that looks complete but tests the wrong things.

Quality engineering at Shelorve creates leverage. Not just volume.

  • Test strategy defined before code is written

    Quality gates are designed in from day one — not retrofitted when a release is under pressure.

  • Test suite as a first-class deliverable

    Maintained to the same standard as application code and handed over at engagement end.

  • Coverage proportionate to risk

    High-risk, high-defect areas get full coverage. Low-risk, stable areas get lighter coverage.

  • Toolset selected for the stack

    Jest, Playwright, Provar, Great Expectations — the right tool for the technology, documented and handed over.

What We Deliver

What quality engineering looks like in practice

Four capabilities embedded in every Shelorve engagement — not sold separately and not optional.

Automated Test Suites

End-to-end automated suites built from sprint one — unit, integration, and end-to-end tests designed around the actual business processes the system supports. The suite grows with the codebase and is handed over as a maintained, first-class deliverable at engagement end.

Jest Playwright Cypress Provar Apex Tests

Defect Pattern Analysis

Analysis of defect history to identify the components and code paths generating disproportionate production incidents. This shapes test prioritization and informs architectural decisions — fixing root causes of defect clustering rather than building an ever-larger test suite around code that should be redesigned.

Incident history Root cause Risk scoring

CI/CD Pipeline Integration

Every commit triggers the relevant test suite. Failed tests block promotion to the next environment. Defects are caught within hours of introduction — not weeks later when someone runs the regression suite before a release and discovers something three sprints old is broken.

Performance and Load Testing

Designed into the program from the start — not bolted on before go-live when the architecture cannot change. Load profiles built from real usage data and peak scenarios. Go-live is not the first time the system has run under load.

Quality Engineering · Common Questions

What engineering leaders ask us
before they engage

It is embedded in every Shelorve engagement. Test strategy, automation, CI/CD integration, and defect pattern analysis are not optional add-ons — they are part of how every program is delivered. There is no version of a Shelorve engagement that does not include Quality Engineering.
The toolset is selected based on the technology stack. For AWS serverless: Jest, Postman/Newman, AWS CodePipeline, and Locust for performance. For Salesforce: Apex tests and Provar. For data pipelines: Great Expectations or dbt tests. For front-end systems: Playwright or Cypress. The toolset is documented at engagement start and handed over with the system.
Legacy systems often have no existing test coverage — and the code is frequently not testable in its current state. Shelorve builds the regression suite as part of the engagement, starting with the highest-risk business processes identified during the discovery phase. Code is also refactored for testability as part of the migration, so the modernized system is inherently more maintainable than what it replaced.
Test coverage is prioritized by business risk and defect history. We identify the integrations and code paths that carry the most risk, and we use defect pattern analysis on available incident history to identify the areas of the codebase that have failed most often. High-risk, high-defect areas get full coverage. Low-risk, stable areas get lighter coverage. The result is a test suite that is proportionate and maintainable rather than exhaustive and expensive.
Yes. Shelorve can assess an existing test suite, identify gaps and inefficiencies, and bring it to a standard that provides genuine confidence in releases. This often involves removing tests that are testing the wrong things, consolidating overlapping tests, and adding integration and performance coverage that is typically absent from inherited suites.
Performance testing is designed into the program from the start — not added before go-live when the architecture can no longer change. Load profiles are built from real usage data, historical transaction volumes, and anticipated peak scenarios. Shelorve runs load tests against each environment as it is promoted, so performance regressions are caught early. Go-live is never the first time the system has run under real load.
