The product will continue to grow. It has major releases every six months, with patches applied even more frequently. Sometimes there are customer-specific variations.<\/p><p>Also, based on variations of platforms from customer to customer, the product updates must be applied to a variety of operating systems and browsers. The overall number of test cases for such a complex product runs into tens of thousands<\/p><p>While changes such as bug-fixes and new features are successfully introduced in each release, it is almost impossible to complete regression testing of all test cases in the time available before a release date. This results in quality issues encountered by end users and\/or delays in releases. Generally, the testing relies on selective testing by subject matter experts. But with the size and complexity of the product, the number of subject matter experts is never sufficient, and their availability is not guaranteed.<\/p><p>It was completely understood and accepted that automation was the answer for this regression testing problem. Automation had been attempted before with some of the best internal resources who knew the product and the automation process. A pilot programme resulted in hundreds of successful test cases.<\/p><p>The real challenge however was to scale the regression automation to cover tens of thousands of test cases.
