Common questions about elearning & education testing

Ask us anythingSCORM compliance testing validates the full communication lifecycle between your eLearning content and the LMS: initialisation handshake, data model interactions (completion status, score, suspend data, session time), and termination. We test against both SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 (3rd and 4th edition) specifications using the SCORM Test Track and manual LMS verification. We also test edge cases that commonly cause field failures: resume after browser crash, completion status on partially complete content, score reporting for branching scenarios with variable paths, and LMS-side handling of out-of-spec SCORM packages.
Yes. We test against Moodle (including Moodle Workplace), Canvas, Blackboard Learn, TalentLMS, Cornerstone OnDemand, SAP SuccessFactors Learning, Docebo, and LearnUpon. Each platform has its own SCORM handling quirks, browser compatibility requirements, and iframe sandboxing behaviour. We replicate your target LMS environment for testing rather than using a generic SCORM conformance checker, which misses LMS-specific integration failures.
We test the full assessment lifecycle: question display and rendering, answer submission and validation, branching logic and conditional navigation, score calculation (weighted, partial credit, and penalty marking schemes), pass/fail threshold application, retry and reattempt logic, randomisation (question pools, answer order), and result reporting to the LMS. We build equivalence partitions and boundary value tests for scoring edge cases, particularly important for professional certification platforms where incorrect scoring has regulatory implications.
Yes. We test educational content against WCAG 2.2 AA using screen readers (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver) for blind learners, screen magnification for partially sighted learners, keyboard navigation for motor-impaired learners, and caption/transcript validation for deaf and hard of hearing learners. We also assess cognitive accessibility, including reading level, navigation consistency, and error recovery, which is particularly important for learners with dyslexia, ADHD, or memory impairments. For publicly funded educational institutions, WCAG 2.2 AA compliance is a legal requirement under the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations.
We model the expected concurrent user load for your peak event, whether that's a scheduled assessment release, a live webinar, or a mandatory compliance training deadline, and run load tests simulating that concurrency against your LMS and content delivery infrastructure. We measure session establishment time, content load time, assessment submission latency, and LMS database write throughput under concurrent load. We also test graceful degradation: if the LMS approaches capacity, does it queue requests cleanly or fail in ways that corrupt learner data?
SCORM testing focuses on package launch, completion rules, bookmarking, score reporting, and LMS communication within a relatively fixed content model. xAPI testing goes further by validating statements, learning record store behaviour, offline sync scenarios, and richer event tracking across multiple learning contexts. We test against the standard you use, but we also verify that the reporting data remains trustworthy enough for compliance, certification, and learner analytics.
A focused course or module test cycle can often be completed within one to two weeks, while a platform-level engagement covering LMS workflows, integrations, assessments, and accessibility usually takes several weeks. The timeline depends on content volume, device and browser coverage, and whether SCORM or xAPI validation is in scope. We phase delivery so high-risk learner journeys are tested first and release dates stay protected.
We use risk-based sampling and template analysis to avoid testing thousands of near-identical pages manually. Shared player components, question types, navigation patterns, and reporting rules are tested deeply first, then we validate representative content sets across browsers, devices, and accessibility scenarios. This gives stakeholders confidence that the platform is stable without turning QA into a bottleneck for every content update.
