Compliance testing ensures software applications adhere to industry-specific regulations, standards, and legal requirements. It involves evaluating and validating the software's functionality, security, and data privacy measures to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
During compliance testing, software is thoroughly assessed to verify if it meets the required industry standards, guidelines, and legal frameworks. This may include regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for data protection and privacy, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) for payment card industry compliance, or ISO 27001 for information security management.
Compliance testing covers various aspects, including data protection, access controls, encryption, audit trails, vulnerability management, and incident response. It also involves reviewing documentation, policies, and procedures to ensure they align with regulatory requirements. By conducting comprehensive compliance testing, organisations can identify any gaps or non-compliant areas within their software. This helps mitigate potential risks, such as data breaches, legal penalties, reputational damage, or loss of customer trust. It also enables organisations to demonstrate their commitment to maintaining high standards of security, privacy, and regulatory compliance.
Regulatory compliance testing focuses on verifying that the software or embedded software complies with relevant laws, regulations, and legal frameworks specific to the industry or jurisdiction.
Security compliance testing evaluates the software's adherence to security standards and best practices. It involves assessing access controls, encryption methods, vulnerability management, incident response protocols, and other security measures.
Accessibility compliance testing evaluates the software's compliance with accessibility standards. It focuses on ensuring that individuals with disabilities can access and use the software effectively, with considerations for screen readers, keyboard navigation, colour contrast, and alt-text for images.
Documentation compliance testing involves reviewing and assessing the software's documentation, including user manuals, system specifications, policies, and procedures, ensuring that the documentation aligns with regulatory requirements, accurately reflects the software's functionality, and provides guidance for users.
