The Challenge
Pickert & Partner, a leading provider of certified quality management solutions, faced a common challenge in software development: the need for efficient and effective UI test automation. However, they wanted a solution that went beyond traditional selector-based tools, which often is complex and time-consuming to maintain, especially for testers with limited programming experience. Their ideal tool needed to support sophisticated UI interactions like drag-and-drop and color verification, provide clear and accessible test reporting, and offer a cost-effective, cloud-based solution.
After evaluating various options, Pickert & Partner chose AskUI to address their UI testing needs. Several key factors contributed to this decision:
