Case Study: PlanGrid improves testing quality and debugging with Cypress

PlanGrid streamlines testing across 2 million projects with Cypress

PlanGrid, an Autodesk company that provides construction productivity software, faced significant challenges with its disorganized and inefficient Selenium-based testing framework. This led to developers skipping tests and difficulty maintaining quality as their user base grew. The customer turned to the vendor, Cypress, seeking a solution to revolutionize their testing practices.

By implementing the Cypress testing tool, PlanGrid empowered its developers with a JavaScript-based framework that offered fast execution and superior debugging capabilities. The solution resulted in a dramatic cultural shift where developers took ownership of their tests, viewing them with the same importance as production code. This led to a substantial improvement in overall quality and fostered a culture of continuous assurance across their development ecosystem.
