testRigor – Test Automation with No Code!

testRigor - Test Automation with No Code! | Artem Golubev | The Enterprise World

Testing is one of the most crucial parts of any software development journey. It becomes highly important while reviewing and validating the software’s performance, quality standards, functionality, and user experience. As we know this process was mainly achieved by performing manual testing, which required expert personnel and countless man-hours.

Then came automation testing which required specialized professionals or software that were not friendly nor simple to use. Thus, increasing the complexity and difficulty of the testing process.

What if anyone on the QA team was able to contribute to writing tests, increasing coverage and thus leading to higher application quality?

testRigor is a codeless test automation tool helping companies empower manual testers to build test automation via executable specifications in plain English 15X faster, and spend 200X less time maintaining tests compared to Selenium.

testRigor is best applied as a no-code automation testing tool for cross-system testing to build tests spanning web, mobile, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Microsoft Dynamics, SAP, and any other 3rd party systems. It can cover entire user flows with end-to-end tests.

The vast majority of testRigor’s customers achieve 100% test automation coverage within under 12 months of deployment.

What makes testRigor successful, and establishes its success?

During their initial journey, testRigor and its team faced many hurdles. One of the most daunting ones was education. As testRigor offers something very unique, intuitive, and simple in a highly complex industry. It was making the market learn and understand that the test maintenance problem is already solved. 

Not only that, they spread awareness of what was going wrong with the old approaches, and how simple things can rule out the complexities, and make test maintenance a simple thing. This enabled the market to understand the innovation of testRigor and its revolutionary service offering in the field of Automation and Testing.

Also, this helped the testRigor and its team to get an in-depth understanding of the problems companies faced, allowing them to drill deeper, get to the root cause of the problems, and create solutions that best meet their client’s problems while evolving their solution(s) continuously. 

testRigor is an executable specification engine designed to allow anyone on your team to build, maintain and understand functional end-to-end automated tests. They also provide a Chrome plugin to further speed-up test creation, and an AI-powered system dramatically reduces test maintenance to a bare minimum and autonomously generates tests that reflect your end users’ behavior.

What’s more interesting and amazing is that testRigor’s systems help clients to achieve test automation goals, requiring almost no maintenance, and being highly cost-effective at the same time.

These factors enabled testRigor and its team to establish its prowess and superior services in the market propelling them past the growth barrier to an incredible place, making them the most trusted and sought-after automation testing solution providers.

Artem Golubev is the Co-Founder and CEO of testRigor.

Artem has been building business software for the last 25 years. The majority of his career went into working on business systems like ERPs, CRMs, Business Marketplaces, Banking Software, etc. targeting business customers and grew to appreciate the importance of the quality of large complex systems.

“I believe we are in the business of helping our customers to deliver high-quality products and doing our best to make this process as easy and seamless as it is technically possible”, Artem adds.

Artem believes testRigor is an absolute game changer in software testing by introducing what is essentially common sense into end-to-end testing, which resulted in explosive growth over the last couple of years.

Artem’s views on constant vigilance as a need or a strategy?

It is a business necessity. There are always several different things that go wrong and need to be addressed ASAP. It is a part of running any business, I believe.

However, I don’t think it can be called a “strategy” since it is rather a tactic. A strategy would be something like “Bullets, then Cannonballs”

testRigor’s one of many successful client stories?

Customer Overview

For three decades, IDT Corporation has pioneered technologies and services that

enable people and businesses around the world to collaborate and share more

fluently and affordably. Today, IDT leverages its expertise to provide consumers and

businesses with innovative communications and payments services through their

flagship brands: IDT®, BOSS Revolution®, net2phone®, and National Retail

Solutions®.

The Problem

IDT’s QA automation team was stuck at low test coverage. They had a goal of

reaching 90% test coverage. They spent 32 man-years of QA Engineering building automated tests. After that, they were not making any progress

towards their 90% automation goal and were stuck at around 34% automation

because all of their QA Engineers were 100% busy maintaining existing tests instead

of building new ones. 

When it became clear that they were not building tests efficiently enough, IDT began

looking into other ways to build test automation. To find the right tool for the

challenge, they explored and tried out several tools for automated testing. IDT was

specifically looking for a tool that would let manual testers implement automation,

regardless of the level of programming skills. Furthermore, the test automation tool

had to be able to handle applications built with a wide range of frameworks like

Android, iOS, Angular, React, React Native, Flutter, etc. – again, without requiring

that testers have in-depth knowledge about these technologies.

What IDT Wanted:

Less Maintenance

IDT QA Engineers were stuck with test maintenance and couldn’t progress after

reaching 34% of test coverage.

Speed of Test Creation

IDT needed a tool to build automation quickly because manual testing was taking up too much time and resources.

Key Objectives

  • Save on cost
  • Increase automated test coverage
  • Less test maintenance
  • Eliminate unexpected recurring bug
  • Work across a wide range of frameworks

The Solution

IDT’s manual QA team was able to get from 34% to 91% in under 9 months. testRigor

enabled IDT to empower their manual QA workforce to build automation. Moreover,

each manual QA was building twice as many tests as QA Engineers previously were,

while still performing their manual QA work. Most importantly, they spend less than

0.1% of their time on test maintenance with testRigor.

Instead of spending most of their time maintaining existing tests, they now spend a

majority of their time using testRigor to generate new tests. Overall, IDT has used

testRigor to speed up releases, increase test coverage, and enhance their team’s collaboration.
