Automated Testing for New Commercial Developments

Client

A company with an ambitious release schedule of new commercial products on their website-based system.

Challenge

The client required automated testing for each new scheme, featuring unique question sets and rules, to validate both the front end and underlying rating engine.

Solution

Ingenuity developed a two-pronged automation approach:

• Front-End Testing: Using keystroke emulation and mouse coordinates to interact with the website interface.

• Backend Testing: Converting test data into JSON format and passing it directly to the quote engine.

This allowed our client to validate both the front-end question validation and the underlying rate engine (coded in Polaris). The solution also supported mid-term adjustment (MTA) and renewal testing. The client now sends test packs to Ingenuity for automated testing, with same-day results delivered efficiently.

Results

Our client now maintains a robust, automated testing process that ensures accurate and efficient testing of new schemes, saving time and ensuring quality before release.
