Optimising FitFlop's Web Testing with Automation and Advanced Tooling

Operational efficiency

Broadened testing scope with automation while maintaining cost efficiency.

Outsourcing transition

Integration of automated testing processes and BrowserStack platform for enhanced testing

Service quality

High-quality testing services across a wide range of devices, browsers, and languages.

Challenge

Managing regression testing with limited resources

FitFlop faced challenges with manual regression testing, which often required limiting the extent of testing during development sprints. This limitation impacted their ability to thoroughly test new releases and functionalities, slowing down the deployment process and increasing business risk.

Approach

Comprehensive web testing program and automation

To address these challenges, PMC was engaged to provide a comprehensive web testing programme for FitFlop. This included rigorous testing on both the FitFlop test site and production site post-deployment. By integrating with the BrowserStack testing platform, PMC was able to execute tests on real mobile devices and a diverse array of web browsers, ensuring broad and effective coverage.

Solution

Enhanced automation and expanded testing coverage

PMC’s automated testing services were able to significantly expand the scope of testing without materially increasing costs. This included testing across all card types, currencies, geographies, and languages. The automation allowed FitFlop to reduce business risk and accelerate the introduction of new releases and functionalities to the market.

Outcome

Reduced risk and faster time-to-market

The shift to automated testing has led to a notable reduction in business risk and has enabled FitFlop to bring new features and updates to market more rapidly. The integration with BrowserStack and the comprehensive testing approach have ensured high-quality results and efficient deployment.

Working with the guys in India really felt like we were involved in the team. The communication has been great from the beginning and I feel everyone is comfortable to talk openly and freely, especially in the Microsoft Teams channel, where ideas are shared, and questions raised.
