Challenge

A global sportswear company needed to improve release velocity for its SAP S/4HANA program, with pressure to move from quarterly to weekly releases. The release scope included more than 5,000 tests, 600 business users, and 32 person days of effort per cycle.

Solution

QualityAI introduced change impact analysis to execute only the tests affected by each release. Risk-based prioritization reduced the target test suite to 1,036 priority tests, with event-triggered automation aligned to change events and release schedules.

Impact

Business user involvement was reduced from 600 users to 4. Daily releases were achieved, and release validation was reduced from 32 days to 3 hours.
