The Challenge

A rapidly growing SaaS platform was experiencing frequent production bugs and lengthy manual testing cycles that were slowing down feature releases and affecting customer satisfaction.

They needed a comprehensive automated testing strategy that could ensure code quality, reduce manual testing effort, and enable faster, more reliable deployments.

Key Challenges:

  • Manual testing taking 2-3 days per release cycle
  • Frequent production bugs affecting customer experience
  • Low code coverage with no automated quality gates
  • Regression testing consuming significant resources
  • Lack of integration and end-to-end test coverage
