Healthcare software testing services

Healthcare QA expertise you can build on.

DeviQA provides QA and test automation for healthcare software: EHR/EMR platforms, telehealth, medical imaging, remote patient monitoring, and IoMT. Since 2010 we have tested healthcare products for Abbott, CipherHealth, SimplePractice, Therapy Brands, and Sysmex. DeviQA is ISO 9001, ISO 27001, and ISO 20000 certified, signs HIPAA Business Associate Agreements, and tests against HIPAA, HL7 v2, FHIR R4, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, and WCAG 2.1 AA requirements. Engineering teams are based in Europe and Latin America, covering both EU and US working hours.

What we test in healthcare software

These are the failure modes that make healthcare app testing different from generic QA — and the specific checks we run for each of them.

HL7 & FHIR integration testing

Challenge

A dropped HL7 v2 message does not throw an error — it silently loses patient data between systems.

Solution

We validate ACK/NACK handling, segment-level field mapping, and message ordering under load, and test FHIR R4 resource validation and bundle transactions against EHR and payer sandboxes.

PHI access boundaries

Challenge

Role-based access to patient data is the first thing a HIPAA audit checks — and the easiest thing to break in a release.

Solution

We test authorization at the API level for every role, verify session management, and confirm PHI never leaks into logs, URLs, or error messages.

Audit trail integrity

Challenge

An audit log that can be bypassed or fails silently is a HIPAA finding waiting to happen.

Solution

We verify that every create, read, update, and delete on patient records is logged, attributable to a user, and cannot be modified after the fact.

Data security

Challenge

The average healthcare data breach costs $10.93M per incident (IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2023).

Solution

We run penetration testing, validate encryption at rest and in transit, and test authentication, secure storage, and session handling.

Accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA)

Challenge

Patient-facing portals and apps are subject to ADA and Section 508 accessibility requirements.

Solution

We test against WCAG 2.1 AA: screen reader compatibility, keyboard navigation, color contrast, and focus management.

Reliability under peak load

Challenge

Telehealth visits and patient portals fail at the worst possible moment: peak demand.

Solution

We run stress and scenario-based testing for video consultations, appointment booking spikes, and concurrent EHR sessions.

Healthcare compliance: what we hold and what we test against

Compliance in healthcare QA is two different questions — what DeviQA is certified for, and what we test your product against. Here is the answer to both.

What DeviQA is certified for

ISO 9001:2015 for quality management, ISO/IEC 27001 for information security, and ISO 20000 for IT service management. These are certifications DeviQA holds as a company; certificates are available on request.

What we test your product against

HIPAA technical safeguards, HL7 v2 and FHIR R4 interoperability, FDA 21 CFR Part 11 electronic records requirements, and WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility. We also validate against HITECH, NIST 800-53 security controls, ICD-10 coding accuracy, and GDPR and PIPEDA data protection rules.

What we sign and how we handle data

We sign HIPAA Business Associate Agreements, NDAs, and data processing agreements before an engagement starts. We work with synthetic or de-identified test data by default; any access to environments containing PHI is governed by the BAA, restricted by role, and logged. Delivery is from Europe and Latin America; team locations are agreed per contract requirements.

DeviQA’s AI advantage

At DeviQA, we use AI to make testing smarter and simpler. Our ecosystem is built to deliver faster, smarter, and more cost-efficient results — so your team can do more in less time.

Video testimonial by Ray Alde

“They can take my lack of knowledge and I can trust that they will be able to produce something of value.”

Ray Alde

Ray Alde

Co-founder & cto at Arklign

Two dedicated DeviQA engineers built reproducible test cases, simplified regression testing, and stabilized feature releases for a SaaS-based EHR platform, eliminating the fire-drills the team had before.

DeviQA tests a telehealth platform end to end: video consultations, chat, and patient portals across apps and APIs. The result: 260+ smooth releases and 75% fewer bugs in production.

DeviQA serves as the process improvement partner to a diabetes care and solutions company. They helped scale the client's automated testing from zero to 80% coverage and built test documentation packaged for federal compliance submissions.

DeviQA delivered 120+ automated unit and integration tests on Node.js and Playwright for a specialized wound care company, with a CI pipeline and fully independent, self-running tests.

Questions & answers

Yes. DeviQA signs a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement before any engagement that could involve access to protected health information, along with an NDA and a data processing agreement.
No. DeviQA works with synthetic or de-identified test data. If a project requires access to environments containing PHI, that access is governed by the BAA, restricted by role, and logged.
Yes. We test HL7 v2 messaging: ACK/NACK handling, segment-level field mapping, and message ordering under load. We also test FHIR R4 resource validation and bundle transactions against EHR and payer sandboxes.
DeviQA holds ISO/IEC 27001, which certifies our information security management system, along with ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 20000. Our security controls are aligned with the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, and if your security review requires a SOC 2 report, tell us during scoping and we will map our controls to your questionnaire.
Your data stays in the environments you control: we work in your infrastructure, your test management tools, and your CI/CD. Access is limited to the engineers assigned to your project and is revoked when the engagement ends. Our engineers are based in Europe and Latin America, covering both EU and US working hours. Team composition is agreed per project: if your contract restricts where your data can be processed, tell us during scoping and we will build the team around those constraints.
Our engineers already know the healthcare domain, so they're not starting from zero. In a typical engagement, the first week covers onboarding and environment setup; meaningful testing begins in week two.
We start with a focused assessment of your current setup, what's covered, what's missing, and where the highest risks are. From there, we build a test strategy tailored to your product and compliance requirements, agree on priorities with your engineering team, and begin execution. By the end of month one, you'll have a clear picture of your coverage, a documented QA process, and early results you can actually measure. No lengthy onboarding cycles.
Yes, and most of our clients do exactly that. We offer a free proof of concept so you can see our work before any commitment. From there, you can start with a focused engagement, a single product area, a compliance validation cycle, or a specific release, and expand the team as confidence grows. We've built long-term partnerships that started as a single sprint.
We validate what actually matters during an audit: access controls, encryption at rest and in transit, audit trail integrity, data minimization, and session management. We test the scenarios where HIPAA/FDA requirements are most likely to break down in real-world usage. Every engagement includes compliance-aligned documentation you can present to auditors. For a diabetes care company, we built test result documentation packaged for federal compliance submissions; you can read that story in our case studies.
Yes. We assign a dedicated team to your project, not a rotating pool of testers. The same engineers who onboard to your product stay with it. Institutional knowledge of your system is what lets the team catch regressions that only show up in workflows they have seen before. Our 96% team retention rate means the people we assign are likely to be with you for the long term.
DeviQA provides healthcare software testing services worldwide. We have worked in software testing since 2010 and delivered 600,000+ man days for 300+ clients, with 300+ QA engineers on staff and a 96% engineer retention rate against an industry average of 80%. DeviQA is certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 20000-1, all engineers hold ISTQB Foundation Level certification, and clients rate DeviQA 5.0 out of 5 across 77 verified reviews on G2, Clutch and GoodFirms.
