PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Client Context

Largest business commercial in SA – Digital division embarked on a modernization initiative to enhance agility, quality, and delivery speed across its digital banking platforms. This involved migrating from a legacy Advance-based system to a modular, cloud-aligned infrastructure.

The existing automation framework lacked architecture, design standards, and CI/CD integration. It faced issues like no exception handling, hard-coded locators, poor version control, and tight coupling, making maintenance and scaling nearly impossible.

Challenges

  • Unstable, non-scalable automation framework

  • Lack of reusable components or object-oriented design

  • Frequent test failures due to hard-coded locators

  • No CI/CD pipeline integration

  • Poor code structure and repository collaboration

  • Regression delays and high manual testing effort

Solution Delivered

✅ Framework Redesign & Standardization

  • Adopted Page Object Model (POM) to enhance maintainability and reduce duplication
  • Implemented reusable design patterns across banking modules
  • Refactored locators using robust XPath and CSS strategies
  • Embedded exception handling and logging for stable execution and quick debugging

✅ DevOps & Collaboration Enablement

  • Migrated to a structured AWS CodeCommit repository with collaborative branching
  • Integrated automation scripts into AWS CI/CD pipelines for pipeline-driven execution
  • Enabled seamless updates and team-wide collaboration

✅ Performance Optimization

  • Enabled parallel execution using TestNG and Grid to reduce execution time
  • Automated regression for login, transfers, loans, accounts, and transaction modules

Value Delivered

  • 100% framework adoption across digital teams at Largest business commercial at SA Bank
  • 90% reduction in maintenance effort via reusable code structure
  • 60% faster execution with parallel runs and CI/CD integration
  • Eliminated manual execution for regular releases
  • Established framework as a QA template across bank-wide projects
  • Faster onboarding for new QA engineers due to clean design and documentation
