Case Study: a tier-1 European operator automates RCS testing at scale with Emblasoft

How we automated RCS testing at scale for a tier-1 European operator

A tier-1 European mobile operator faced the challenge of ensuring a robust and scalable Rich Communication Services (RCS) offering. The complexity of RCS, with its vast number of potential user scenarios and the need to support multiple network protocols, made comprehensive manual testing impractical. This was compounded by the operator's need to support a DevOps strategy that required continuous testing. The operator partnered with Emblasoft to implement an automated RCS testing solution using its test and measurement software, including PureLoad and Evolver.

Emblasoft provided a solution that could simulate mobile clients and automate over 300 different RCS test cases. This allowed the operator to validate a wide range of user behaviors and core network integrations across protocols like SIP and MSRP. The automated testing from Emblasoft drastically reduced the time required for testing from an estimated 100 manual hours down to a matter of hours, saving significant time and cost. It also provided a future-proof framework for automatically testing new software updates and features.
