Our solutions for your employee self-service software testing challenges

Solving the real issues that slow down and break employee self-service portals.

Fragmented data across HR systems

Challenge

ESS portals rely on 4–7 HR systems, and 30% of HR tickets come from data mismatches.

Solution

We test integrations end-to-end and prevent sync errors before they reach employees.

Complex access & permissions

Challenge

ESS platforms often have 10+ roles, making permission errors common.

Solution

We validate every role state, run negative access tests, and ensure clean permission updates.

Sensitive payroll & PII handling

Challenge

PII incidents cost 20% more to fix, and testing without real data is tricky.

Solution

We use masked data, synthetic datasets, and focused security QA.

Constantly changing workflows

Challenge

Custom leave rules, approvals, and eligibility create high regression risk.

Solution

We map workflows, test real scenarios, and automate repeatable paths.

Peak-load performance spikes

Challenge

Payroll and enrollment periods cause 3–5x traffic surges.

Solution

We simulate peak loads and catch performance bottlenecks early.

Real-world device variability

Challenge

40%+ of ESS usage is mobile, exposing UI inconsistencies.

Solution

We test across devices, browsers, and accessibility conditions to ensure stability everywhere.
