Testing as a Service for T-Mobile

Challenge

Large complexity and the critical role of the tested applications

T-mobile’s spectrum of offered services and the connected processes creates a complex ecosystem of applications needed for their execution. In 2014, this aggregate accounted for over 100 total independent applications. Their functionality and development were critical for the company.

To ensure a smooth running, the client needed:

• optimized testing process,
• perfect coordination within the scope of the whole IT team,
• support in developing new services and functionalities,
• swift reaction to changes and updates. 

Providing such demand in-house or throughout the traditional testing services would be too complicated and ineffective.

Solution

Flexible service with guaranteed results and first-class care

The client’s distinct demands and specifics directly called for the provision of testing within the newly defined concept of “Testing as a Service”. This concept currently encapsulates an optimal combination of demand flexibility with guaranteed results.

Within the scope of such cooperation with the client, we were able to provide:

• a strategy to compile high-quality and dependable testing,
• incorporation into the internal testing environment,
• testing for waterfall projects, but also agile teams,
• testing automation,
• reporting and continuous optimization,
• flexible scope of up to 35 INVENTI testers that tested 30 applications.
