3 Story Software Enhances Testing Efficiency with AI Automation

This case study details how 3 Story Software (3SS) improved its testing processes by implementing AI-driven API test automation. The company, which specializes in vendor and workforce management software, faced challenges with manual regression testing, which was time-consuming and unsustainable. To address these issues, 3SS sought to modernize its testing practices by automating regression testing for both standard and custom workflows. The initial attempt using Selenium proved ineffective due to the complexity of their software's customization options. Eventually, they adopted Parasoft's SOAtest, which allowed for the creation of highly repeatable and scalable end-to-end API tests. The results showed a significant reduction in test creation time, with new workflow tests being generated in approximately 15 to 20 minutes, compared to 30 to 45 minutes manually. This automation enabled the team to run a growing suite of regression tests daily, facilitating early detection of regressions and improving overall testing efficiency.
