Accelerating QA Efficiency

Context

One of the biggest clients has complex fin-tech domain with 60+ engineers. Project started in 2018 with micro-service architecture in AWS. Since project had been growing, tests suites were being increased with a big amount of high level e2e tests.

Challenge

Huge amount of automated test cases delay testing feedback. All tests executed about 12h. A lot of tests were duplicated on e2e level and developer levels, which bring double support and time execution.

Solution

Speed up a pipeline for all test cases by reviewing automation code and automation infrastructure. Review testing pyramid and exclude duplication on automation team level by communicating it through testers and developer team.

Results

Whole pipeline execution were decreased up to 8 hours. Each area of development (QA, AQA, developer) started communicating testing scenarios in order to divide tests by levels.
