Faster MedTech Development: Pre-Engineered Automation Framework

Maintaining high-quality products is essential for user satisfaction and brand reputation. A fast-growing MedTech company developing oral care products needed to improve and speed up their testing process.

Challenges

Time Constraints: Rapid turnaround of development with frequent release cycles. Manual testing was a lengthy process that slowed down the release cycle. Regression execution time was more due to high number of test cases 

Quality Control: The complexity of the software made it difficult to ensure consistent test coverage, leading to potential bugs slipping through the cracks. 

Resource Allocation: Allocating resources for manual testing meant higher costs and less time for development and other tasks. 

Inconsistent Results: The manual approach sometimes led to variations in test results, affecting the reliability of the testing process. 

Solution

Test Automation Framework: We used a pre-engineered comprehensive test automation accelerator Panacea that was scalable and tailored to fit client’s requirement. Being pre-engineered framework, team did not spent time in developing framework rather within no time, they transformed manual cases to automation scripts.

Integration with CI/CD Pipeline: The automated tests were integrated into the continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline, ensuring that tests were run consistently with each code change. 

Comprehensive Test Suite: We created a comprehensive test suite that covered functional aspects of the software, providing extensive coverage and reducing the risk of regression. 

Traceability: Achieved complete test traceability between requirements, test cases and test scripts  

Impact Generated

Increased Automation Coverage: Automated 360+ manual test cases (70% automation). 

Increased Efficiency: Test automation significantly reduced the time required for testing, allowing faster release cycles and quicker time-to-market. Parallel execution of test automation scripts reduced execution time by 60%. 

Improved Quality: Automated tests provided more consistent and reliable results, improving overall software quality and reducing the likelihood of defect leakage. 

Cost Savings: By reducing manual testing efforts, the client saved costs on resource allocation and reduced time spent on repetitive tasks. 

Enhanced Productivity: Automation allowed the testing team to focus on more strategic tasks and innovation rather than repetitive manual testing. 

Scalability and Flexibility: The test automation framework allowed the client to easily scale their testing efforts as their software evolved and expanded.
