Case Study: Royal Bank of Canada transforms QA across the Caribbean with Validata Software

Royal Bank of Canada achieves 80% automation across 5 locations with Validata Software

The Royal Bank of Canada, a Tier-1 bank headquartered in Canada, faced significant challenges while upgrading its Temenos T24 core banking system across its Caribbean operations. Using HP QTP, the bank struggled with the complex upgrade from R7 to R14 and needed an end-to-end automated testing solution that integrated requirements management, defect management, and performance testing. They turned to vendor Validata Software for a solution.

Validata Software implemented its Validata ATS, ABC Performance Tester, and V-Conn solutions to provide automated regression testing, performance testing, and financial reconciliation. This solution achieved 80% test automation across five locations, enabling fully automated regression and upgrade testing. The results included significantly shorter test cycles, faster production deployments, and major cost savings for future releases, all while lowering the total cost of ownership through an integrated platform.
