Case Study: TransUnion cuts weekly testing from 30 hours to about 2 with Applitools

Key results

The challenge

TransUnion's QA team supported a consumer credit-monitoring subscription service that was moving from once-weekly manual releases toward near-daily continuous deployment. The team relied on hundreds of manual assertions and functional checks for each release, which did not scale with the increased release frequency.

The solution

TransUnion adopted Applitools Eyes for automated visual testing, integrating visual validation snapshots and layout testing into a Python and Selenium regression suite.

The results, in context

After adopting Applitools, the QA team reduced the time spent on functional and manual regression testing from about 30 hours a week to roughly 2 hours, and testing per release dropped from around five days to roughly two hours. Hundreds of manual assertions were eliminated in the process.
