About this Bonita implementation
“We wanted to automate our tests because we are constantly developing new functionalities for our software, and then have to check their compatibility with the old versions, most often manually. This took a lot of time for our technicians. Now with Bonita, we have industrialized the process by modeling our tests in the form of a diagram representing the sequence of steps and behind each of them, we have developed software connectors that interact with physical equipment.”
This company needed to:
- automate their software testing
- provide new functionalities for their software to be checked for compatibility with the old versions
- find a graphic platform, so non-developers are able to define test scenarios
- create a solution that is easy for their end users to use
Challenges
- This customer began working with Bonita Community edition and switched to Bonita Enterprise for better scalability.
- They need to support ongoing development and testing of a full range of solutions to analyze of the quality of experience for fixed and mobile operators: telecoms, broadcasters, energy suppliers, insurance companies, and more.
- Today they have a team of 5 developers working to design new connectors to develop their in-house solution interfaced with the latest version of Bonita Enterprise.
