Case Study: Optimal Workshop accelerates CI/CD and saves engineering time with Semaphore

Optimal Workshop cuts test suites to under 7 minutes with Semaphore

Optimal Workshop, a software company specializing in usability testing tools, faced challenges with their self-hosted TeamCity CI solution. Maintaining their own servers was a hassle and their test suite was running very slowly, taking valuable time away from development. They needed a reliable hosted continuous integration and deployment solution that was easy to configure.

By implementing Semaphore, the team gained a fully automated continuous delivery pipeline. The ability to run tests in parallel saved over 10 engineering hours daily, slashing test suite run time from over an hour to under 7 minutes. Semaphore's performance and ease of use, including a simple integration for automatic deployments, made it the superior choice and a critical tool for their workflow.
