Speed Up Your Functional and
Regression Testing
Leverage Cigniti’s Robust Test Automation Framework for
Faster Time-to-Market and Quicker ROI
CIGNITI’S TEST AUTOMATION ACCELERATOR
Companies face challenges in adopting tools to automate their testing. It is primarily due to high investment costs associated with tool procurement and the difficulty in selecting the right automation framework. Enterprises prefer to GO LIVE in the “Shortest Possible Time Frame without Compromising on Quality” of their product/services. Hence both, ISVs and Enterprises also expect acceleration of test events across the Software Test Life Cycle (STLC).
Cigniti Test Automation Accelerator helps clients overcome these challenges, and speeds up the automation of their functional and regression testing. The robust framework provided by the solution enables early automation, which helps develop test scripts during the design and development phases of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Further, the solution leverages existing automation tools and allows engagement of business users in test automation, while reducing the dependence on highly skilled testing personnel.
Cigniti’s dedicated Automation Center of Excellence (ACoE) is backed by a decade of R&D to deliver cost effective Test Automation solutions. Cigniti’s ACoE has developed a set of reusable test automation assets that form the core of Cigniti’s Test Automation Accelerator Kit. This jumpstart kit that consists of a tool & technology agnostic framework, seamlessly integrates into Cigniti’s Test Automation framework and helps to quick start the automation project bringing in significant scripting effort savings.
Cigniti works with an optimal mix of technical and functional experts who identify the best possible way to automate test activities, develop & streamline automation processes across STLC, and ensure quicker ROI.
