Manual and Automation Testing for Pulse Prospector

The platform is a lead-generation tool designed for sales, marketing, and business development teams. It automates lead capture, scoring, and tracking, integrates with CRM systems, and provides analytics and reporting features to enhance sales and marketing efforts.  

Before testing was included at the Pulse Prospector, the platform often faced bugs and performance issues due to minimal testing. That meant that support would occasionally report errors. Additionally, developers handled pre-release testing themselves and created manual tests. 

Luxe Quality provided two specialists. The QA engineers were tasked with creating test documentation, thoroughly testing the functionality of the product, and creating detailed manual test scripts that were subsequently automated. 

To tackle the unique demands used of a variety of technologies: 

• Playwright was utilized to automate web browser interactions, which was critical for implementing robust regression tests and improving test reliability. 
• JUnit and TestNG were used to organize and manage test cases, allowing for efficient test execution and comprehensive reporting. 
• Jira provided a platform for issue tracking and project management, ensuring that all identified bugs and issues were systematically documented, tracked, and resolved. 
• Jenkins automated the continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) pipeline, facilitating regular and automated test execution with every new build. 

The Pulse Prospector project featured a notable enhancement in its testing framework through a structured integration of key technologies. 

• Playwright Integration — Implemented to automate interactions with web browsers, significantly enhancing the efficiency of regression testing. 
• Jenkins for CI/CD — This integration facilitated the automation of continuous integration and deployment processes, ensuring regular and seamless test executions. 
• Optimized Testing Process — The combination of Playwright and Jenkins optimized the overall testing workflow, improved platform stability, and maintained high-quality user experiences. 

Together, these technological advancements streamlined the development cycle, positioning the project at the forefront of quality assurance innovation. 

• 800+ bug reports resolved since the QA process enhancement, significantly improving the platform's stability and functionality. 
• 300 manual and automated tests conducted, ensuring thorough verification of the platform's features and functionalities, leading to the detection and resolution of previously unnoticed issues. 
• 50% faster deployment cycles after the integration of automated regression tests and CI/CD pipelines reduced deployment times by half, allowing for quicker updates and feature releases. 
• 2x increase in testing coverage, ensuring a more comprehensive validation of platform functionalities.
