Indium Software’s Test Automation Solution and Execution

Indium Software’s QA experts analyzed the application workflows to derive the Process and Technology needs to automate functional QA and accelerate Test Cycle.

Technology Stack

QA Standardization: The case of QA Process Streamlining

The QA set up was required to be standardized in terms of producing Test Artefacts and Reports from the Functional Testing unit that would assist in proposing Test Strategy for Automation.

Test Automation Solution with Custom Framework

We developed a custom advanced Test automation framework for accelerating test cycles. It was employed to cater to the Test Automation Solution for the Salesforce Application.

The framework integrates well with standard Automation Tools, enables parallel execution of Test Cases and keeps maintenance costs of Test Scripts and Test Data in strict check.

Web and Mobile Synchronization:

The lead creation and management workflows access and modify actions in the Salesforce platform, is an omnichannel experience feature.

A typical case would be to create a lead on the web application with all required fields and a sales dealer would approve a lead on the mobile self-service portal or vice versa.

QA needs for the different web and mobile combinations (possible business scenarios) were to be addressed as a special functional coverage.

Our solution included test automation framework customization that synchronizes a record created in the back-office account and validates or update the same on the client-side application (Mobile/Web).

The framework initializes multiple Browser/ Mobile Application instances in parallel or on-demand. This helps a (current) test scenario to interact with more than one application inside the same test case.

Built-in Analytics with Custom Test Automation Framework

Provided real-time reports on Test Execution status and outcomes that allowed Dev Teams to schedule agile actions on the test results.
