Automated Regression Testing
About the Client
The client, a nationally recognized homebuilding company, combines the community-driven approach of premium local builders with the strategic strength of a major real estate leader. Ranked among the top 10 largest public homebuilders in the U.S. by revenue, the client operates six distinct brands across key regional markets in nine states. With a focus on quality, innovation, and customer experience, they continue to deliver exceptional homes while shaping the future of residential living.
Context
Even with Salesforce serving as the backbone of their operations, the client’s regression testing process remained heavily manual, introducing friction at every stage of delivery. Each enhancement triggered repetitive test cycles, consuming valuable time and resources. The result? Slower releases, delayed feedback loops, and limited confidence in production readiness. Over time, this reliance on manual QA eroded team efficiency and exposed the need for a more scalable, automated approach to testing.
The Challenge: Time-Intensive Manual Regression Testing
Key Pain Points & Business Impact
Slowed Delivery
Regression cycles consumed entire workdays per tester, pulling resources away from high-priority tasks and delaying project timelines.
Testing Fatigue
Repetitive manual execution after every update led to burnout, reduced motivation, and a higher risk of errors slipping through.
Late-Stage Defects
Bugs were often identified late in the cycle, increasing the likelihood of production issues and reactive fixes.
Limited Scalability
As Salesforce workflows became more complex, manual testing struggled to keep pace, making it harder to ensure consistency across teams and environments.
Eliminating Bottlenecks with Selenium-Based Automated Testing
To enhance efficiency and accuracy, Grazitti Interactive implemented a comprehensive automation framework:
- Selenium & TestNG for Scalable Test Automation
Selenium was chosen to speed up regression testing for major Smoke/Sanity tests. Also, enabled TestNG structured test execution, offering logs, reports, and test case prioritization. - Page Object Model (POM) for Maintainability
Separated test logic from UI locators, making the framework more structured, readable, and scalable. This reduced maintenance overhead when Salesforce UI changes occurred. - Cross-Browser Testing for Compatibility
Ensured uniform functionality across multiple browsers to maintain a consistent user experience. - Data-Driven Testing for Comprehensive Coverage
Enabled test execution with multiple data sets using an Excel-driven framework. - Automated Reporting with Extent Reports
Provided execution results with snapshots, status logs, and failure timestamps. This ensured reports were automatically emailed post-execution for real-time issue tracking. - Integration with Salesforce & Third-Party Applications
Validated data across multiple sandboxes with automated test execution. This ensured smooth parameterization testing for Salesforce-generated PDFs and DocuSign workflows. - Maven for Dependency Management
Ensured seamless script execution by automatically managing dependencies. - Configuration Files for Dynamic Test Execution
Allowed dynamic test adjustments based on configurable inputs.
Results: Faster, Smarter, and More Reliable Testing
Manual regression testing drained time and resources, delaying issue resolution and deployment. By implementing an automated testing framework, the client achieved faster execution, seamless defect tracking, and improved test accuracy—transforming their Salesforce operations for the better.
