An organization may choose to outsource its software testing to a service partner to hire offshore testing team based in a foreign nation and time zone as part of an offshore software development approach. The authoring, performing, and reporting of software tests are all steps in the offshore testing process that follow the standard software testing cycle.

The contracted service provider is capable of performing the majority of software test types. For instance, offshore software testing may be used to carry out QA tests, mobile app tests, user acceptance tests (UAT), and smoke tests. A test report is sent to the business after being finished by an offshore testing company, where it is either authorized or sent back after being verified.
