Case Study: Local Automotive Parts Retailer Company achieves rapid store provisioning and comprehensive test data automation with GenRocket

Local Automotive Parts Retailer Company - Customer Case Study

Local Automotive Parts Retailer Company, a major brick-and-mortar participant in the $130B automotive aftermarket, faced complex, manual testing challenges for store inventory management and new‑store provisioning across thousands of SKUs and roughly 200 local databases. They engaged GenRocket and its Enterprise Test Data Automation capabilities to address error‑prone spreadsheet and binary‑file workflows, the need for real‑time inventory/store location scenarios, and a prior process that required up to 10 hours to create a new store and its test data.

GenRocket implemented an integrated solution using the GenRocket API, Generators and Receivers (including GroovyScriptReceiver and SQLUpdateReceiver) to synthesize and replace data in unstructured binary files, call customer APIs for live store numbers, and perform SQL updates across Oracle, mainframe, PostgreSQL and MySQL environments. The deployment – delivered in three phased epics – fully automated test‑data provisioning for inventory adjustments and new‑store setups across ~200 local databases and central systems, eliminated manual copy/spreadsheet steps, enabled real‑time scenario testing, and accelerated provisioning compared with the prior up‑to‑10‑hour process, improving QA coverage to support the retailer’s expansion and competitive fulfillment goals.
