AST's TaaS Autonomous Cloud Tester Solution for Global Sustainable Energy Developer

Energy developer automates cloud testing & reduces test cycle time to two business days with AST ACT solution

Situation of Global Sustainable Energy Developer Company before using AST's ACT solution

The client is a leading privately-held developer and operator of sustainable energy solutions with over a thousand employees across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. After implementing Oracle ERP Cloud in 2017, the client realized that the quarterly Oracle-issued upgrades to its Cloud environment were putting considerable pressure on business users and IT support to manually execute test scripts across modules and integrations, and to complete the testing, results reporting, and defect management in a timely manner.

The client required a partner with deep test automation experience and extensive capabilities to help them achieve the following business goals:

  • Automate recurring patch testing efforts across Oracle ERP Cloud modules (Financials, Procurement, HCM, PPM)
  • Execute quarterly patch testing cycles within 2-3 business days, with time available for failure analysis and retesting
  • Eliminate pressure on business users, allowing more time for exploratory testing of critical feature functionality
  • Ensure risk-free production deployments by enabling earlier identification of defects and their timely resolution
Let’s Create Progress Together!

AST’s services have significantly increased our efficiencies, relieved our end users from the pressure of ongoing manual testing, and mitigated the risks of upgrade patch deployment.
