Process Automation and Master Data Creation

Process Automation and Master Data Creation

Overview

Client wanted to achieve a high level of automation in order to reduce the time and money being spent on manual testing and achieve faster time to market for their solution. This would have helped them deliver high quality without regression and achieve high level of customer satisfaction.


The Challenge

  • Spiraling costs, reduced time to market, dissatisfied customers
  • Huge number of forms in the application
  • High Defect Leakage into Production
  • Validation of batch runs, end to end business flows, checking delinquency rules through aging of data
  • No documentation

Our Solution

  • Creation of simulation framework with agile, modular hybrid components giving high reusability, scalability, error handling, code coverage measurement using QTP and Ncover tools.
  • Day to day operation simulated through the framework
  • Batch verification, Master Data creation for product setup, prerequisite automation, API automation
  • Agile methodology was enriched with work templates, checklists, daily reports and weekly dashboards for effective delivery

Value

  • Master data creation, prerequisites automation, workflow automation and batch run verification through automation resulted in an end to end simulated workflow reducing model office timelines to 20%
  • Complete documentation and over 100% functional coverage through test cases and 90% coverage through automation. There were 142 use cases created, 7500 exhaustive manual test cases created, 6500 test cases automated
  • Over 42% lines of code coverage achieved through automation
  • Validation of batch runs, end to end business flows, checking delinquency rules through aging of data
  • Dead code and unreachable code identified and reported to client as a value add
  • Master data creation obviated the need for copying production DB into the test environment saving on operational costs, Masking tool costs and completely avoiding compliance & regulatory issues
