Furthermore, they are not being over-cautious – far from it. During 2011, the UK government published a report stating that cybercrime was costing the economy some 27 billion pounds a year. Businesses took most of the hit, with losses to business standing around 21 billion pounds a year. Indeed, 2011 is sometimes reported as being the worst year in modern computing history for security breaches of high-profile companies. As a consequence, enterprises are increasingly taking preventative measures, including penetration testing.

Though partners that have been in the industry for a while will know the ropes and can get up to speed quickly, you should still be prepared to share knowledge, documentation, and other learnings about your product and any existing testing infrastructure. Here’s a quick guide that will help you successfully onboard your new software testing company: Provide clear requirements Your QA partner needs clear, actionable project requirements before they take any action related to testing. Project requirements help engineers formulate a thorough and effective test plan, so you’ll need to specify the type of testing required (in detail), your technical requirements (environment, language, platforms, etc.), and any caveats that you feel the team needs...
