Software test improvement success stories

Schneider Electric

Their problem: They needed 10 validations rounds before going live to production for their main software. The costs were hudge and the regressions were too many.

Today: For updating their software, they never go beyond 3 validation stages. They increased their testing efficiency by 70% and reduced costs by 50%.

Silverpeas

Their problem: Siilverpeas felt they need to become more Agile. The problem was their legacy code: it was huge. Making changes in the software was too risky as number of regressions would quickly appear. It was a dead end.

Today: Thanks to Kalistick, Sliverpeas has gained control over application stability. They became able to anticipate regressions and to correct it even before problems appear. They are now more reactive that ever and they have a big evolution capacity.

Société Générale

Their problem: Société Générale works with a strategic application: Nominet. This application became more and more important with time. It’s used in more than 50% of Stock Market orders, and it offers more valuable services everyday. Société Générale needed to optimize its software and make it reliable.

Today: After setting Kalistick up in their process, Société Générale was able to make its key application more stable and more efficient.

Bayer

Their problem: Bayer needed to develop a new strategic application. They had outsourced application development in the past, but it was disastrous: never stable, lots of regressions… and it was a pain to modify it. No way for Bayer to do it again.

Today: They have chosen Kalistick to optimize their testing process and they have outsourced the development of “Positif Graphic”, the new C# software. The application is now live, and they increased their competitivity on packaged products sales, just as planned.
