Business case

Planisware released E7.X-a game changing version upgrade. Our client, a pharma giant, wanted to adopt the latest version to enhance their productivity and data handling capabilities. At the same time they wanted to make sure the upgrade was carried out smoothly without disrupting their critical processes. 

One way to make sure of this was to test the whole upgradation process to understand the impact before proceeding with the actual upgradation. They trusted i2e consulting to conduct the testing based on our acknowledged success in managing end-to-end testing services for many previous Planisware releases. The client wanted a detailed report of the testing process which can help them to take informed decisions at each stage of the upgradation process.

 

Challenges overcome

Due to significant UI and navigation changes in E7, creating test scripts was challenging. Our expertise and deep knowledge of Planisware helped us to overcome this and come up with some out-of-the box options to create test scripts suitable for E7.

Benefits

  • Significant reduction of the timelines because of parallel testing and upgrading
  • Dry running the scripts reduced the defect counts significantly

  • Detailed documentation of the test results resulted in informed decision-making
  • Overall seamless migration from V6.X to E7.X ensured continuity in business processes
  • Visibility of the entire process with detailed overview of the errors
  • Reduced defect counts and efficient processes lead to significant cost savings
