Case Study: Perlego boosts release velocity and cuts flakiness with Cypress

Perlego boosts release velocity 20x per day with Cypress

Perlego, a London-based educational technology company, faced significant challenges with its Selenium-based automated testing. Excessive test flakiness and failures eroded confidence in their process, leading to customer-impacting bugs reaching production and hindering cross-functional collaboration. They needed a more reliable solution from a vendor like Cypress to enable faster and more productive development cycles.

By implementing Cypress and Cypress Cloud, Perlego efficiently rewrote its test suite and integrated it into its CI pipeline. The solution provided by Cypress resulted in a dramatic acceleration of their release cycle, now deploying up to 20 times per day with confidence. The team saves an average of 35 days of run time per month using parallelization, has reduced flakiness to almost zero, and has significantly improved team morale and recruitment.
