About the client:

A leading agricultural services provider, specializing in livestock and wool marketing, required automation for its testing processes to improve the efficiency of its Admin Portal and OPAS applications.

The challenge:

The client’s manual testing approach for its critical applications led to inefficiencies and bottlenecks. As application complexity grew, testing across user roles became time-consuming and delayed releases, highlighting the need for a faster, more scalable testing solution.

Our Solution:

Cygnus Consulting implemented a risk-based test automation strategy focused on business-critical functionalities, delivering key enhancements:

  • Feature Analysis & Prioritization: Categorized features based on business impact, prioritizing high-impact functionalities.

  • Phased Automation: Automated P1 and P2 (highest priority) test scenarios first, ensuring critical functions were covered early.

  • Automated Test Data Generation: Integrated Faker library to automate test data, increasing speed and accuracy.

  • Enhanced Reporting: Implemented ExtentReports for detailed test results and real-time insights.

Results:

The automation achieved 82% regression test coverage for the Admin Portal and 79% for the OPAS application, significantly reducing the time required for testing. The enhanced automation freed up resources for other high-priority tasks, accelerated release cycles, and ensured comprehensive test coverage, contributing to the client’s ongoing operational efficiency and growth.
