Accessibility Testing

Accessibility testing is a testing methodology where websites, software, and digital products are evaluated to ensure they can be used by individuals with disabilities, including visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments. The goal is to create an inclusive digital experience. It requires that the digital content and functionality adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

DevAssure uses these methods to enable teams to:
  • Validate WCAG compliance
  • Ensure inclusive digital experiences
  • Test for various disability types

AI Test Case Generation

Writing test cases is an important part of the Software Development LifeCycle and also the most time consuming. Having good test case coverage before development from requirement documents not only strengthens the technical design but also reduces the number of bugs that would be identified in the testing and production environments. And, one of the most important use cases with AI, is using GenAI to create test cases. And DevAssure agents are pioneers in this. With DevAssure you can add your Figma mockups, PRDs, Jira epics and stories, tech design documents and many more to generate test cases - regression, end to end and edge cases.

DevAssure uses these methods to enable teams to:
  • Generate 300 test cases in 15 minutes
  • Generate regression, end to end and edge test cases
  • Improve test coverage
  • Reduce manual effort in test creation

API Validation

API validation is the process of verifying that an Application Programming Interface (API) functions as intended, meets specified requirements, and performs correctly under various conditions. This involves testing the API endpoints to ensure they return the expected responses, handle errors appropriately, and maintain data integrity. API validation is crucial for ensuring that APIs are reliable, secure, and provide a seamless experience for developers and end-users.

DevAssure uses these methods to enable teams to:
  • Generate API test automation scripts from swagger docs and postman collections
  • Ensure API reliability and functionality

Agentic Workflows

Agentic Workflows bring in the concept of AI agents working together like a team to handle complex test automation tasks. Instead of relying on a single static script, multiple specialized AI agents collaborate — one to generate test steps, another to validate locators, another to fix failures, and another to optimize execution. DevAssure’s Yaan AI Agents orchestrate automation across the full QA lifecycle (test generation, execution, healing, CI/CD).

Learn more about DevAssure's Agentic Workflows

Agile QA

With Agile methodologies, QA is now part of a sprint. Rather than QA being an after thought towards the end of the release, QA is now interleaved within the Software development lifecycle, thereby helping engineers identify bugs early in the development cycle. This leads to continuous feedback loops and faster releases. DevAssure’s AI agents work with the engineering teams from Day 1 of the sprint cycle ensuring Test case generation before development, reviewing the dev code for bugs while coding, generating in sprint test automation scripts, and a fast execution engine.

DevAssure uses these methods to enable teams to:
  • Integrate QA into Agile sprints
