Coordinating test resources – staff, facilities, and tools – across dozens of teams is not for the faint of heart. Side effects include HR headaches, high turnover, siloed knowledge, and ultimately, lackluster performance. As a centralized managed testing services resource, Lionbridge Test Centers of Excellence can manage all your testing needs while building and capturing best practices – all with lower overhead and a business model that allows us to attract and maintain the best testing talent in the industry.

Mobile Device & App Testing
Mobile technology is pervasive, and your customers demand nothing less than flawless performance – no matter where they roam. But testing mobile technology presents unique problems, such as frequent but short usage patterns, limited screen sizes and memory, device fragmentation, and, of course, a rapid pace of innovation. Lionbridge mobile app testing takes on these challenges. It’s why many of the mobile industry’s top companies rely on Lionbridge to make sure their network service, mobile devices and mobile apps work great – and look great – from San Francisco to Singapore.

Web Application Testing
When it comes to web apps, user expectations are high and the competition is just a click away. And with fragmented browsers and an endless array of mobile and tablet devices, along with new technologies like HTML5, you need a partner you can rely on to make sure web application testing gets done right – across platforms and even across the globe. Lionbridge does more than just test your web apps for performance, data integrity, security and cloud provisioning. We can help you optimize SEO, seamlessly test and fix bugs across multiple languages, and even develop custom testing tools when the need arises.

Lionbridge Crowdsourced Testing puts the power of our 140,000 member global workforce in your hands.

Game Testing
There’s no other way to say it: managing the game testing process is just painful. High turnover – not to mention staffing through peak periods – turns into a time void that can waste 20% or more of your time. Managing the complexity of testing multiple language UIs and stringent IP protection concerns leads to release delays and potential in-country risks. Lionbridge can take it all off your plate by providing one point of contact for scalable game and localization testing services delivered from our secure facilities.

Test Automation
With manual testing, there never seems to be enough staff or enough time to accomplish everything you need to do – let alone what you want to do – before your next release. Lionbridge test automation exponentially increases your testing capabilities with pre-built test frameworks that reduce costs by 25% over in-house testing. And with Lionbridge, you don’t pay for automation services until they start paying off for you.
The best performing QA organizations automate up to 80% of their test cases
In-country Localization Testing
When you launch a product outside of your home turf, you need to be sure it’s going to work just as well in Hong Kong as it does in Hackensack. At Lionbridge, localization testing and in-market services are in our DNA. Our worldwide team of over 100,000 local and in-market testers covers 102 regions. We can make sure your apps look great in Albania and your printers work perfectly in Paris. And we can do it all for you simultaneously, around the world, through a unified dashboard with fewer touch points and a faster, smoother experience.

Performance Testing
Service outages caused by spikes in user activity are legendary, as are the costs – including angry users and lost revenue. Anyone can slap a million virtual users onto your system and wait for fireworks; Lionbridge takes a more nuanced approach, sending business analysts onsite for performance testing to capture real-world use cases and analyze your architecture so we can accurately pinpoint – and help you avoid – break points.
