Case Study: Shanghai OnStar Telematics Co. achieves 1,000+ automated daily regression tests and 40% faster releases with OpenText (UFT Mobile, ALM/QC, UFT One)

On the journey to DevOps, Shanghai OnStar deploys Micro Focus UFT Mobile, integrated with ALM/QC BPT and UFT One to automate testing of lifesaving mobile app.

Shanghai OnStar Telematics Co., a Shanghai-based joint venture serving about one million active users, provides safety and telematics services for vehicles in China. Its OnStar Mobile app — supporting critical features like GPS navigation, SOS emergency alerts, natural voice recognition and remote vehicle control — required flawless performance, but manual, largely outsourced testing slowed releases and increased costs as the team sought to move toward DevOps and faster time-to-market.

Shanghai OnStar implemented Micro Focus UFT Mobile integrated with ALM/QC, UFT One and Business Process Testing to build a real-device lab, simulate networks and run unified iOS/Android automation. The solution now automates more than 1,000 regression tests daily, speeds release cycles by 40% (two releases/month), cuts testing costs by 20%, reduces defects into production by 10% and saves roughly 15 man-days per release while shrinking the manual testing team.
