Defective software, system failures, and neglected regulatory requirements are major risk factors for most banks and insurance companies today. Regularly testing IT systems is costly and time consuming for organizations, especially because so many organizations have yet to automate their testing systems.
Moving to an automated testing approach will increase quality and efficiency, while decreasing costs and risks, yet only one third of organizations have automated their testing approach. Automated test management is also an effective way to combat additional compliance requirements; address new considerations such as cloud services, mobile, and big data analysis; and re-platform and modernize heterogeneous landscapes. Axxiome has a developed methodology for implementing automated test management solutions, based on long-standing business and process knowledge in the banking and insurance industry, and benefits organizations in several ways.
