A SmartBear Case Study
L3Harris Technologies, a major provider of defense and aerospace systems, needed a scalable test management solution to support 300+ concurrent projects and release cadences ranging from multiple major releases a year to weekly baselines. The company required tight requirements-to-test traceability with Jira, management of both manual and automated tests, and reliable weekly regression tracking across hardware and software portfolios.
L3Harris selected Zephyr Enterprise for its cost, deep Jira integration, and cross‑platform support. After rolling it out and training technicians, they migrated hardware test management, expanded capacity from ~300 to over 1,000 items, and run weekly regressions through a unified platform. Real‑time reporting and Jira-linked defect tracking sped issue resolution (saving hours weekly), dashboards improved stakeholder visibility, and automation integrations (e.g., Sikuli with Zbots) enabled combined reporting and remote test execution—boosting efficiency and test throughput.
