Intasect Communications Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Tam Gyokuhou; hereinafter, "the Company"), which operates in fields such as system development, DX solution business, and cashless payments, has announced the results of its initiative utilizing its test automation solution for smartphone-based account transaction applications at financial institutions.
This initiative has been continuously introduced in systems for financial institutions, achieving a significant reduction in test man-hours by automating regression tests that were previously performed manually. Furthermore, by enabling simultaneous execution on multiple devices and automated reporting, it has achieved both efficiency in the testing process and improved quality, contributing to shorter release cycles.
Details of this case study are being released today.

■ Overview of the Introduced Solution
This solution is a test automation platform that automates the testing process for smartphone applications, executing time-consuming manual testing tasks quickly and accurately.
By recording operation procedures, test scenarios are automatically generated and can be executed simultaneously on multiple devices. This achieves efficiency in repetitive testing tasks and stabilizes quality. It is also a test platform capable of meeting the high-quality requirements demanded by financial institutions.
Key features are as follows:
・Faster and more efficient testing
By operating dozens of devices simultaneously, a large number of test cases can be executed in a shorter time compared to manual testing. Also, by recording operations once, the same scenario can be automatically executed repeatedly, achieving overall efficiency in the testing process.
・Stable and improved quality
It meets the high-quality standards required by financial institutions, eliminating human errors by accurately repeating defined procedures, enabling consistent verification. This ensures highly reliable test results.
・Enhanced testing (early defect detection)
It automatically verifies the impact on existing functions (non-degradation) due to feature additions or modifications, enabling early detection of defects.
・Multi-device verification
Tests can be executed simultaneously on different Android and iOS models and OS versions, comprehensively checking for defects caused by device differences.
・Cost optimization through a fixed-rate model
Unlike time-based cloud device services, it offers fixed-rate usage, enabling continuous test operation while suppressing cost increases due to usage frequency. The cost structure is also easy to adopt.

■ Specific Implementation Effects
・Both test man-hour reduction and test period shortening
In an account management app related to the core operations of a financial institution, test man-hours were reduced from approximately 1800 hours to 600 hours, and the test period was also halved through simultaneous execution on multiple devices.
・Quality improvement (improved defect detection accuracy)
By eliminating human errors and performing multi-device verification, defect detection accuracy improved, making it possible to detect defects that were previously overlooked in traditional manual testing. As a result, cases where undetected defects decreased from "10 to 0" have been confirmed.
・Quality assurance through multi-device support
Verification that is difficult to cover manually, such as layout collapses due to screen size or device differences, was handled through automation.
・Improved operational efficiency
Automated test execution and report output enabled continuous and efficient test operation.

■ Future Initiatives
Based on the smartphone app test automation platform built through this initiative, the Company will continue to advance further functional enhancements and expand its application areas.
This solution is applicable not only to the financial sector but also to a wide range of industries utilizing smartphone apps, such as gaming, retail, and services, and we will promote its expansion into various fields in the future. Furthermore, based on our implementation track record in the financial sector, we aim to develop it as a more advanced quality verification platform.
・Expansion of test target areas
In addition to smartphone apps, we are considering applying it to UI testing for web services and various systems, and are proceeding with the construction of a test automation platform capable of supporting a wider range of systems.
