Wealth Management Software Provider Achieves 90% Regression Coverage with TestComplete
A leading wealth management software provider sought to modernize testing across their WPF-based desktop and web applications. However, limited market options for WPF automation made it difficult to streamline and reduce regression cycle times. By implementing SmartBear TestComplete and ReadyAPI, the company scaled their QA team and achieved 90% automated test coverage. The switch also enabled monthly software updates and continuous integration through Jenkins allowing them to confidently meet the growing demands of their users.
