Client was facing a high volume of manual test cases, which largely impeded efficient software delivery. This situation was negatively impacting the project turnaround and the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the financial product they were working on.
Our client knew they had to change their strategy and implement test automation in further development. At the same time, he lacked the required resources on the team and struggled with organising the process from scratch. The client already had three Scrum teams working on the project–27 full-time members in total. Missing the required test automation skills, he sought a partner to facilitate this change and train their in-house manual testers on relevant processes.
We were quickly able to respond to this need. On board we have over 60 senior testers, all with extensive commercial experience in broad ranges of industries. Our engineers analysed the project scope, produced initial documentation, and created new, more agile testing strategies. They also selected and implemented new tools and processes in the client’s test environment.
We then designed and delivered a bespoke technical training session for the in-house manual testers to help them introduce automation testing. Our workshop equipped them with necessary programming skills, ideas for handling API with REST Assured, and best practices in improving code review processes.
As a result of our work and training, the client’s internal teams gradually began creating automation test scenarios for all the items they were developing. Change is never easy, so they benefited most from the ability to consult updates to their strategy and practices with our team. Client’s new QA processes are now closely tied and up to par with existing Agile software development practices.
This change has led to a lower TCO and swifter turnaround of the products developed by the team.
The team continues developing the product, and we are pleased to be supporting them in their efforts.
