Case Study: a UK’s largest private software company accelerates software development and boosts efficiency with Cybage’s GitHub Copilot integration

a UK’s largest private software company accelerates software development by 12% with Cybage

The customer, a UK-based software company and its largest private software development firm, faced challenges in accelerating its release cycles and improving code quality without increasing engineering complexity. They needed to scale across backend, UI, and test automation teams while navigating legacy code. Partnering with vendor Cybage, they sought a solution involving GitHub Copilot to address these needs.

Cybage integrated GitHub Copilot across the client's software development lifecycle to provide context-aware code generation and automated unit-test creation. This solution, combined with SonarQube for quality enforcement, accelerated backend development by 12% and improved UI feature delivery by 15-20%. The implementation also reduced developer effort on unit tests by 50%, increased coverage, and resulted in fewer defects, giving the client faster go-to-market with improved reliability.
