Case Study: Nourish Care reduces test runs from 3 hours to 12 minutes with Semaphore

Nourish Care cuts test runs from 3 hours to 12 minutes with Semaphore

Nourish Care, a health and social care technology company, faced extremely long test run times that slowed their development cycle. Their comprehensive suite of 8,000 tests took about three hours to complete, creating a significant bottleneck. To enable faster and more reliable deployments, they turned to the CI/CD platform Semaphore.

By implementing Semaphore, Nourish Care leveraged parallel test execution across 20 nodes, slashing test run time from 3 hours to just 12 minutes. The solution also provided valuable artifacts like failure screenshots, efficient resource caching, and streamlined multi-server deployments managed as code. With Semaphore, the team achieved rapid setup for new services, automated quality gates, and a dependable deployment process that increased both speed and developer confidence.
