Case Study: Metso Outotec achieves faster, low‑maintenance SAP and end‑to‑end test automation with Worksoft Certify

Metso Outotec Shares The Value of Test Automation for SAP & Beyond

Metso Outotec, a global leader in sustainable minerals processing technologies, faced slow, resource‑intensive manual testing for SAP that caused long regression cycles, poor test coverage and delayed reporting. Manual processes required weeks and significant staff time, making reliable end‑to‑end validation difficult across SAP and integrated non‑SAP systems.

The company implemented Worksoft (Certify, Execution Manager, Impact and Capture) to automate testing across more than 500 transactional processes and ~90,000 steps. The codeless solution enabled business users to record and reuse tests, run unattended nightly schedules, and improve documentation. Results include reducing regression testing from roughly three weeks/200 man‑hours to about three days/40 man‑hours, saving ~150 man‑hours monthly, cutting test maintenance by more than 50%, and finding and fixing more defects.
