Quality Assurance at Canadian Western Bank
The testing was being performed manually which meant that is was costly, requiring a lot of resources, with recurring script maintenance eating into the budget. The bank selected Validata to support their QA and DevOps initiatives through its unified DevTestOps platform. The selection process included an extensive proof of concept exercise, where Validata showcased its technologies and successfully met the success criteria and requirements set.
The bank has also upgraded its Validata testing infrastructure as part of its revamping strategy to improve the overall client experience, and leverages the cloud-native ValidataSense.ai capabilities in a flexible hosted SaaS model, making it the first Canadian bank to do so.
By leveraging Validata’s ‘build for change’ technologies, the Bank has been able to transform their testing processes and reap the benefits of intelligent automation.
The bank has been able to transform their regression testing from manual which took 20 mandays to complete down to just a few hours, seeing significant value in terms of time, effort and resources.
