Case Study: Basler Kantonalbank accelerates end-to-end testing with Tricentis Tosca

Basler Kantonalbank increases Avaloq releases by 15% with Tricentis

Basler Kantonalbank, a Swiss retail bank, faced a challenge in accelerating its software releases due to its heavy reliance on manual testing for its core Avaloq banking system. This process was slow, covered limited business risk, and allowed critical defects to reach production. To support its agile adoption and increasing release frequency, the bank partnered with vendor Tricentis to implement test automation.

Tricentis provided its Tosca product to automate end-to-end testing. With the assistance of a service partner, the bank established a risk-based testing approach and overcame test data management challenges using specialized plugins. The solution enabled Basler Kantonalbank to triple its number of automated test cases, increase Avaloq releases by 15% per year, and achieve virtually zero production defects, significantly accelerating time to market.
