Continuous Testing as a Service

Delivered on-demand and on a pay-as-you-use basis, Continuous Testing Services are configurable for your environment in days and hosted indefinitely in the Assurity Cloud Platform.

Non-stop quality assurance

Our Continuous Testing-as-a-Service (CTaaS) platform allows you to host your own tenancy and achieve enterprise-wide automation on demand. With continuous testing pipelines, teams can introduce rapid incremental changes and self-serve testing. CTaaS runs thousands of tests daily, replacing tedious test releases with a continuous regime. All assets are fully portable and available for reuse by other disciplines, making it ideal for testing cloud software and ERP solutions from Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, and others. CTaaS has achieved annual returns on investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Eliminate management, infrastructure and license costs with Enterprise Test Assets created and hosted in the Assurity Cloud Platform.

Assurity’s Continuous Testing-as-a-Service (CTaaS) empowers organisations to perform continuous testing from the cloud, leveraging persistent test automations built on the Assurity Cloud Platform, called as required – every upgrade cycle or every day. This scalable solution delivers real-time metrics, making quality assurance an integral component of the software development lifecycle. Several clients have accelerated their quality assurance, increased experimentation capability, and improved asset availability and reuse using CTaaS.

Benefits delivered

Continuous Testing-as-a-service (CTaaS) offers several benefits that can help organisations to ensure the stability and reliability of their software products. Here are some of the key benefits of Continuous Testing-as-a-Service:

Provide Stability

CTaaS can help to deliver enduring trust in change by ensuring that software products are thoroughly tested and validated before they are released into production. This can help to minimise the risk of errors and defects that can lead to downtime, service disruptions, or customer dissatisfaction.

Deliver quicker

CTaaS can help to speed up test cycles and reduce the time it takes to release new software products into production. This can help organisations to stay competitive by delivering new features and capabilities to customers more quickly and efficiently.

Alleviate business pressure

CTaaS can help to reduce the pressure on business SMEs (subject matter experts) by automating many of the testing processes and freeing up their time to focus on other important business activities.

Reduce costs

CTaaS can help to reduce the costs associated with software assurance by automating many of the testing processes and reducing the need for manual testers. This can help organisations to save money while also improving the quality and reliability of their software products.

Shift left issues

CTaaS can help to identify issues early in the software development lifecycle, allowing teams to address them before they become more difficult and costly to fix. This can help to reduce the risk of delays, rework, and other issues that can impact project timelines and budgets.

Achieve ROI faster

Remove the high cost of entry for automation and reduce dependency on expertise in people and technology. CTaaS has a short time to set up, speeding up time to market, and reducing procurement cycles. Paying for what you use rather than people and technology per annum reduces operating costs. Additionally, it reduces the cost to serve automation as maintenance and licensing are provided as a service.

Testimonial

“The initial and obvious benefit was acceleration. We can onboard new parties rapidly by enabling them to self-service with testing, reducing their need for physical engagement with IR. Provided with the right information, it makes testing easier for them and for us, so both parties win.”

— Chris Hourigan

Business Transformation – Testing Lead, Inland Revenue

“To date, approximately 20 transactional, repeatable tests have been automated and are available in the Assurity Cloud for Enable to use in every upgrade cycle. We utilise these tests as needed and seek Assurity’s testing expertise to supplement our team’s skills. Our team consists of finance professionals, not test experts, and while we have a Business and Technology Innovation team, they have many competing priorities and other systems to maintain. Previously, our team required two weeks of testing time, but now it has been reduced to just three days.”
