It enables everyone, from experienced professionals to first-time users, to collaborate and address their digital challenges in a secure, regulated environment. With its presence in diverse industries, HCL Volt MX offers companies the chance to create innovative experiences for their customers, partners, and employees.

 

Testing Solutions

We understand the dynamic nature of HCL Volt MX through extensive testing conducted by technical teams. These teams work diligently to refine the solution for the benefit of our HCLSoftware customers. The HCL Volt MX technical team performs manual testing procedures that can span several hours a day. As many are aware, manual testing is labor-intensive and inefficient in terms of maximizing employee resources. In the realm of software solutions, time is crucial, and lengthy processes are costly in multiple aspects. Therefore, one of the primary goals was to improve efficiency.

The Solution

All in the Family

As part of the HCLSoftware family, HCL Volt MX had a solution readily available nearby: HCL DevOps Test. This product served as a comprehensive solution for many testing challenges for their SPA/Responsive Web and Foundry components. With minimal coding, HCL DevOps Test provided a straightforward approach to the testing challenges. It offered streamlined test automation and detailed results reporting with clear distinctions and color-coded sections. Moreover, the capability to automate procedural steps and reporting was highly valuable to the HCL Volt MX team. The many hours of manual testing consisted of verifying the Volt MX web application for different browsers, as well as browser versions. It was easily automated using the record and replay no-code capabilities of DevOps Test.

The Results

Straightforward Solutions

The evidence speaks for itself. HCL DevOps Test has delivered quantifiable outcomes for the HCL Volt MX team:

  • Achieved a 95% reduction in testing time
  • Implemented automation for both testing and reporting
  • Facilitated straightforward adoption of the solution

By eliminating the previous multi-hour manual testing process, their SPA/Responsive Web and Foundry component tests can now be completed in less than an hour, including automated test results generation. This collaborative effort between teams focuses on refining solutions to enhance the experience for HCL Volt MX's requirements.

The recent upgrade to version to Devops Test v11 has further improved the reporting process by swiftly generating PDF versions of reports, benefiting Volt MX customers.

The synergy between two of HCLSoftware's robust solutions, HCL Volt MX and HCL DevOps Test, underscores the principle of Occam’s Razor: "the simplest solution is almost always the best." This partnership is dedicated to creating superior experiences for HCLSoftware customers.
