Case Study

Regression Test Bed Automation for the Channel Management systems of a Global InsurerA Fortune 500 insurance company wanted to provide its

representatives / accounts / clients a single-sign-on

profile-based system where they could login and access

information related to commissions, clients, accounts,

transactions, and appointments. The system had to be robust

enough to manage 10,000 representatives, over 50,000 daily

transactions and 253 application screens.

NIIT Technologies created a regression test bed and

automated processes to support the client’s monthly releases.

We developed the test cases, defined a baseline for inputs,

and automated the same in order to minimize testing effort

(test case creation and execution) and reduce turnaround time

for regression testing. The engagement helped the client:

• Save effort involved in executing test cases by 84 percent

• Reduce turnaround time for regression testing of the application

• Save 68 percent costs through offshore execution of the project
