Testing

With tens of thousands of hours of testing experience, Sysmetlab is the partner of choice for top manufacturers and service providers.

Today, the question is not: “What can my product support?” It is: “What does my customer expect?” Changing standards, applications and infrastructure translates into constant pressure to be both future-ready and backward-compatible. High-quality testing has become a critical factor for improving the odds of a new product’s commercial success. We offer a comprehensive set of testing services that spans the entire product lifecycle. Our end-to-end testing services enable our customers to accelerate the delivery of their products and services on the cutting edge of innovation.

Our testing services cater to multiple segments: 

Communication Infrastructure

Validate next-generation networks. We provide end-to-end testing services including system validation, pre-certification, interoperability testing and field testing for wired and wireless network elements. We cover test scenarios for networks such as mobile backhaul, broadband access, carrier Ethernet, enterprise, datacenter and IP/MPLS core networks. We also cater to requirements of wireless networking technologies, such as LTE, WiMAX, UMTS, CDMA, Femto, GSM and GPRS.

Devices

Usability dictates product success. We provide lifecycle testing services including system validation, pre-certification, certification, interoperability testing and field testing for devices. We have the right experts who can certify the usability of a new device and enhance its commercial success.

Social, Mobile, Analytics and Cloud

Move toward maximum efficiency, engagement and profits. We provide comprehensive testing services including end-to-end testing, compatibility testing, performance testing, pre-certification and managed test services for social, mobility, analytics and cloud applications and products. We help improve customer experiences with our usability testing services, ensuring that applications are user-friendly, easy to navigate and intuitive.

Machine-to-Machine(M2M)

Verify product success. We offer integration, testing and certification services across M2M products and solutions. Ensure the interoperability of your devices and platforms in our state-of-the-art lab environments. Sysmetlab has in-depth expertise to provide validation services across silicon and operating system platforms. Our managed testing and certification services save you time, money and personnel bandwidth—your most important commodities.

Testing Services: 

Lifecycle Testing

Ensure your service delivers regardless of network, device or app. We offer a comprehensive suite of testing services delivered by engineers and consultants with extensive expertise in telecommunication technologies as well as in testing best practices and equipment. Our engineers provide end-to-end services across all product and testing stages:

  • Feature testing: Verify feature functionality under test
  • Functional testing: Test functionality, requirements or parameter combinations that may cause functionality to fail
  • System and platform testing: Gain confidence your product is customer-ready and that systems integrate seamlessly
  • Feature interaction testing: Verify functionality in the presence of other features that may impact it, directly or indirectly
  • Feature performance testing: Validate the system behavior for features under test
  • Acceptance testing: Check the readiness of product before release
  • Compatibility testing: Ensure software and hardware compatibility 
  • Interoperability testing: Test the interworking of devices, network elements and applications in a multi-vendor environment
  • Conformance testing: Validate product conformance with required specifications
  • Throughput testing: Measure the product’s capacity performance
  • Load testing: Ensure that designed overload control methods work correctly
  • Stability testing: Guarantee continuous operations without any functional or performance degradation
  • Security testing: Test confidentiality, integrity, authentication and other security mechanisms
  • Field and deployment testing: Address your product’s field-readiness

Test Automation Frameworks

Test suites that save time and money. Our automated test scripts and scenarios use a modular approach to build complex cases with a smaller number of basic building blocks. These frameworks reduce the test cycle time by 15 to 20 percent, and time to market by approximately 40 percent.
 

  • Software Tool for Automated Test Environment (STATE): Accelerates unit testing, subsystem and system integration testing, and regression testing of 2G/2.5G/3G/LTE products
  • Sysmetlab Network Simulator: Simulates typical deployment environments to enable performance testing of complex L2 and L3 protocols
  • Test Automation Framework: Runs platform-agnostic scripts for load, build, sanity, feature, unit, integration and regression testing of wired networking technologies
  • Billing Test Automation Frameworks: Test subscriber provisioning, account data management, service data management, tariffs configuration, customer care and inventory management
  • BSS and BTS Automation Framework: Allow the user to define "Execution Scenarios," through a web-based graphical user interface, using built-in "Execution Blocks" for any 2G/3G test scenario
  • Regression Automation Test (RAT) Framework: A TCL-based automation framework that is portable across Linux and Windows platforms and can be easily customized for future architectures
     

Pre-Certification Testing

Verify interoperability across platforms. With the exponential increase in network data traffic, carrier Ethernet has emerged as the common anywhere, everywhere technology. We have a dedicated team of engineers that help telecom equipment manufacturers with equipment from a variety of vendors, and perform MEF 9 and MEF 14 compliance testing—the most important from a product’s perspective—for the pre-certification of Carrier Ethernet services.

Lab Management

Zero downtime and round-the-clock availability. Spread across more than 50,000 square feet, we manage customer labs catering to various core and access telecom technologies. We create end-to-end solutions for customers including lab infrastructure planning, setup procedures, management processes and maintenance, so you can focus on your core business.
