Case Study: Large Telecom Company achieves faster time-to-market with Conformiq 360 Test Automation

Telecom Giant Uses ATD to Speed Time-to-Market for Mobile and Multi-Platform Applications

A large telecom company, one of the largest providers in the United States, faced intense time-to-market pressures for its new mobile and web applications. The challenge was to remove bottlenecks in its testing process, as it needed to create comprehensive test cases faster to support frequent application changes without sacrificing the critical 100% requirement coverage needed to avoid costly customer provisioning errors. The company turned to vendor Conformiq and its Conformiq 360 Test Automation solution, which included the Conformiq Creator model-based testing software.

Conformiq’s solution automated the test design process by creating a graphical model of the application from which all test cases and executable scripts were automatically generated. This approach integrated with the company's existing tools and sprint cycles. The results were significant, demonstrating a 454% efficiency gain in test case design and an 18% reduction in the number of test cases needed. This enabled the large telecom company to achieve 100% requirements coverage and confidently support its aggressive schedule of nine or more application revisions per year, dramatically speeding up its overall time-to-market.
