Qualitest and an anonymised omnichannel retailer: POS test automation case analysed

Verdict: what is checkable

The evidence grade (this site's label for how a case is sourced: primary with client or press confirmation, secondary when vendor-hosted only.) is secondary: the only source is the vendor's own page; of 3 metrics, 0 are verifiable yes, 0 partial and 3 no. [ev-1232]

Where the source names each system is quoted or summarised from the case page. [ev-1232]

Problem as stated

The client sells a multi-platform POS system to retail, leisure and hospitality businesses. It wanted to start test automation with its chosen automation tool and needed advice to train its in-house team. It also wanted help to speed up the first round of script writing, convert manual regression cases, and set up execution and reporting. [ev-1232]

The client needed guidance and consultancy to educate their in-house team on automation (quoted from the source)

What the case does not say

  • Baseline before the engagement.
  • Measurement method.
  • Duration over which the metric held.

  • Whether the client is still a client.
  • Date of the work.

Reading notes for a buyer

This case speaks to the scenario “POS rollout across stores” and feeds dimension D4 (Test automation evidence) of the methodology. A question to put to Qualitest:

How many test cases were in the manual regression pack, and how long did it take to automate the share you report? [ev-1232]
