The Challenge
Overcoming Integration Complexities and Manual Testing Bottlenecks
Headquartered in Massachusetts, and with offices across the US and Europe, Sarepta is a leading medical research and drug development company generating more than $1.2 billion in annual revenue.
As part of their cloud strategy, Sarepta migrated their finance and supply chain systems to Oracle ERP and SCM Cloud. However, with business processes spanning multiple systems, parties, and technologies – including Workday HCM – Sarepta’s reliance on manual testing created bottlenecks and operational headaches.
The company needed a partner that could help integrate their core applications with Oracle Cloud and streamline the implementation of patches, transforming their labor intensive manual testing efforts through a robust and efficient test automation process.
The Outcome
Driving Performance and User Confidence Through Continuous Quality Automation
After analyzing Sarepta’s business processes and integration requirements, the need for a comprehensive digital assurance suite was clear. Sutherland’s deep cloud expertise and test automation capabilities made us an ideal partner and –Sutherland CloudTestr™ the right solution to accelerate the client’s automation journey.
Delivered ‘as a service’, Sutherland CloudTestr™ makes software testing faster, easier, and more cost effective across all applications and technologies. By leveraging the platform’s extensive pre-built test libraries, Sarepta was able to automate hundreds of test scripts between Oracle Cloud and key systems like Workday.
In doing so, Sutherland CloudTestr™ enabled fully automated test case validation of Oracle and Workday R1 and R2 releases without the client having to provide additional training to staff or commit extra resource to handle the load. This not only drove operational efficiencies but helped to ensure defect-free releases to core systems, increasing agility while minimizing risk.
Providing a central repository for all test results, Sutherland CloudTestr™ enabled Sarepta to identify failures of test cases fix them in a timely fashion. Real-time support for internal and external audits also created added efficiencies, reducing manual effort associated with test documentation. By partnering with Sutherland and leveraging our CloudTestr™ platform, Sarepta’s velocity and agility improved substantially. Quarterly patch release validation was reduced to just two days, enabling the adoption of new features quickly and with a significant reduction in execution time and effort. That’s digital performance unlocked and measurable results delivered.
