  • Adopting test automation at Effizency to Improve Agility and Software Quality
    Publication . Castro , Miguel Cervera; Bragança, Alexandre Manuel Tavares
    Digital solutions have long been used as a means to solve everyday problems. Over time these solutions have been improved and refined. These solutions have emerged to help humans, primarily with tasks that can be cumbersome or repetitive. The demand for repetitive tasks and process optimization through digital means is peaked. For this reason, many companies in the software development area have adopted the use of automated tests capable of doing autonomously and quickly the tasks that previously required a lot of resources to perform, thus jumping on the "Automation Bandwagon”. By applying this approach, companies have the goal to improve the quality standards of the software offered by reducing the number of bugs and identifying them as early as possible in the development process. To observe the applicability, optimization, and efficiency of the automation of autonomous testing in a specific system, the concepts and technologies proposed here were applied in a professional scenario of a young company, Effizency. This company aims to facilitate the sale of energy services and electrical optimization. Effizency currently works using an agile approach and is constantly looking for ways to improve its development process. The company is currently facing the challenge of increasing the quality of its software and at the same time reducing the repetitiveness of its validation processes. Through this dissertation, it is expected that an improvement will be identified in terms of both a reduction of process repetition, time consumption and an increase in the test coverage performed. The main objective of this dissertation is to improve the quality of a company's software and the agility of its development process. This objective will be achieved using automated testing.
