CLIENT OVERVIEW
The client was a U.S.-based Electronic Medical Records Management software provider company, offerings clinical and business productivity software to over 1,000 clinics and hospitals across the country.
BUSINESS NEED
With a large installed base of active customers and ongoing changes required in coding, this client was looking for a reliable and efficient test automation solution.
The company explored alternatives like COTS and open-source tools, but lacked the certainty and confidence that these were their best option. Concerns about the increased human resources needed to perform manual testing and a potentially longer testing cycle motivated them to seek a better solution.
Key objectives and business needs:
- Reduce the testing cycle.
- Ensure software quality with no compromise.
- Use the workforce and resources efficiently.
