A SmartBear Case Study
Optiscan, an Australian ASX-listed medtech company that develops miniaturised confocal microscopes and advanced imaging systems, faced a critical testing challenge as its flagship medical device and software approached regulatory approval and full-scale production. The systems were large and complex, manual testing was too slow and error-prone to meet stringent regulatory requirements and tight deadlines, and the team needed a repeatable, auditable testing approach.
Optiscan selected SmartBear TestComplete for its flexibility, cost-effectiveness and support for standard scripting, plugins and reusable frameworks. TestComplete automated full functional tests (data entry/persistence, image capture/review, UI control validation), simulated host–embedded communications, and provided guided manual test steps for complex hardware checks. The result was faster, more reliable and repeatable testing, simplified maintenance through shared name mapping and project suites, reduced test development time and lower cost while helping meet regulatory and production readiness goals.
