About project

CYDEF is a well-known Canadian cybersecurity company that assists businesses globally in safeguarding their computer systems from various security threats.

Their cybersecurity solution, named "Agent" is crafted for efficient threat detection and data breach prevention. CYDEF's method involves identifying all abnormalities, which are then thoroughly examined by their expert team. The goal is to determine whether these anomalies align with known cyber threats. Once a real threat is confirmed, CYDEF promptly implements corresponding preventive measures.

VP Product, CYDEF

DeviQA has helped the company create hundreds of test cases with speed and efficiency. The client regards their workflow as seamless. Importantly, the vendor understands the client's core business value, allowing them to deliver just as expected of them.

Our engagement

DeviQA’s engineers were engaged to optimize the QA process at CYDEF, and their initiatives have brought about substantial improvements.

By creating test cases for the desktop agent and implementing test automation, they’ve elevated product quality and enabled more frequent releases. Regression testing, which used to take 2 weeks, is now completed in just 4 days.

Our team has created a comprehensive test suite comprising over 1900 tests and written over 700 automation scripts, ensuring the robustness of end-to-end testing through cutting-edge automation tools.

The introduction of a Smoke Testing Suite has significantly accelerated the validation of new features, reducing its time by over 75%. By covering 98% of the desktop agent with test cases, our team has contributed to the success of more than 30 releases.

Ops work has played a pivotal role in maintaining the smooth operation of CYDEF's infrastructure. This includes proactive issue detection and swift resolution. Moreover, we've implemented a new streamlined client onboarding process, reducing its time from a month to less than 2 weeks.
