Case Study: a large north american bank reduces test execution from 2 weeks to 7 hours with Perfecto

a large north american bank cuts regression test time from 2 weeks to 7 hours with Perfecto

A large North American Bank faced slow, costly testing in its waterfall development process. Its 2000-test regression suite took two weeks to run, creating heavy reliance on manual testing. The bank partnered with Perfecto and its Black Belt Program to modernize its test strategy and enable an Agile, continuous integration approach.

Perfecto implemented code optimization and parallel execution, reducing the automated regression test time from two weeks to just seven hours. The vendor also helped integrate Jenkins for CI and established a data warehouse for results. These changes increased automated coverage to roughly 70% per release, significantly lowered maintenance costs, and freed the QA team to focus on new features.
