Project: Test Automation Services & Stress Testing Implementation

Client: European Bank

Automation level: 170+ automated test cases updated to Summit v6.3

Automation efforts: Equivalent of 1.5 full-time RightClick consultants for 3 months 

Client drivers

• The Bank was preparing for a major upgrade and was looking to reduce testing and analysis efforts.

• The Bank needed support for stress testing and performance testing due to large number of active users in production (around 250 users)

  
  

Project highlights

• Comprehensive planning: the RightClick team reviewed existing tests, made necessary amendments to align with the latest updates, and clarified scenarios with unexpected behaviors.

• GUI test case updates: updated the GUI test cases using the RightClick TMS solution to ensure compatibility with Summit v6.3.

To replicate a normal day, tests were designed to simulate the daily activity of multiple users from different departments performing tasks like trade booking, querying, and importing through interfaces simultaneously.

• Project coordination: regularly shared overall project progress and status updates with the bank, ensuring clear communication and coordination.
