Types of Tests
Industries
These records can be used as part of the test documentation in quality management processes as required by MDR or FDA 21 CFR Part 11. Whether they are sufficient in a specific audit context depends on the QM system in use and internal processes. The test suites themselves are versioned and can be integrated into existing QM systems.
Software errors in healthcare are not an option. Clinical systems, patient management, and medical device software must function flawlessly – with every release, every update. QF-Test helps companies in the healthcare industry test their software in an automated, reliable, auditable, and compliance-ready manner.

Software that affects lives – quality is non-negotiable
In healthcare, every software decision carries more weight than a business case. Patient data, clinical decisions, and medical devices all depend on reliable software. At the same time, regulatory requirements, system complexity, and release pressure continue to grow.
Regulatory compliance
MDR, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, GDPR – test execution and results must be fully documented and auditable. QF-Test delivers the reports required for this.
Complex system landscapes
HIS, LIS, RIS, EHR, mobile apps – often grown architectures with Java clients, web front ends, and Windows applications running side by side.
Fast release cycles
Agile development and CI/CD pipelines demand automated regression tests that run reliably and quickly with every build.
Data privacy & data security
Patient data is highly sensitive. QF-Test runs entirely on-premises – no cloud dependency, no external data access.
Accessibility
Public health portals and patient-facing applications must be WCAG-compliant. QF-Test checks accessibility automatically.
How QF-Test supports the healthcare industry
The right tool for mission-critical software
QF-Test meets the demands of medical software projects: stable, long-lasting tests for complex GUI applications – with minimal maintenance overhead, comprehensive documentation, and seamless CI/CD integration.
Auditable test documentation
QF-Test generates detailed HTML and XML reports with screenshots – ready to use for internal audits and regulatory evidence under MDR or FDA.
Regression tests for HIS & EHR
Safely validate changes to patient management systems: automated regression tests ensure that no update silently breaks existing functionality.
One solution for all technologies
Java Swing, JavaFX, Web (Angular, React, Vue.js), Windows, and mobile – QF-Test tests all common technologies in a single, unified environment.
On-premises & privacy-compliant
No cloud requirement. QF-Test runs entirely within your own infrastructure – essential when working with sensitive patient data.
CI/CD integration
Tests run automatically in Jenkins, GitLab CI, and more. No release without a quality gate – for safe, continuous delivery of medical software.
Automated accessibility testing
Patient portals and health apps must be WCAG-compliant. QF-Test integrates accessibility checks directly into the test run.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions: QF-Test in healthcare
Is QF-Test suitable for regulated medical software (SaMD, MDR, FDA)?
Yes – QF-Test generates auditable test documentation.
Is QF-Test suitable for regulated medical software (SaMD, MDR, FDA)?
Yes – QF-Test generates auditable test documentation.
Can QF-Test be operated within our on-premises infrastructure?
Yes – no cloud required, full data control.
Can QF-Test be operated within our on-premises infrastructure?
Yes – no cloud required, full data control.
QF-Test is installed and operated entirely on-site. There is no dependency on cloud services. This is particularly important for healthcare organizations that work with sensitive patient data and must comply with strict data protection requirements (GDPR, hospital data protection laws).
Which technologies are supported – including legacy Java clients?
QF-Test supports Java Swing, JavaFX, SWT, Web, and Windows.
Which technologies are supported – including legacy Java clients?
QF-Test supports Java Swing, JavaFX, SWT, Web, and Windows.
Many clinical information systems have grown over decades and use older Java technologies such as Swing or SWT. QF-Test supports exactly these – as well as modern web front ends (Angular, React, Vue.js) and Windows applications. One single tool for all technology layers.
