Allianz Global Investors concludes its fastest ever large scale user acceptance test

Panaya, the Israel-based testing and continuous delivery specialist owned by Infosys, has announced that Allianz Global Investors, a leading active investment manager, has completed user acceptance testing (UAT) in record time using the Panaya Test Center, an SaaS-based test management solution. Over the course of two weeks, 1,000 test cases were executed by 40 business users across seven locations. “We would not have been able to do the testing that we did without Panaya Test Center,” explains Maximilian Mayrhofer, Global Program Manager at Allianz Global Investors. By engaging key users, Panaya Test Center enabled Allianz to run large-scale UAT under tight timelines; defect management, including detection, resolution and retesting of defects were all performed, he said. “In order to stay ahead and deliver change faster, organisations today need to streamline their UAT cycles by shifting left and performing testing earlier in the lifecycle,” said Rafi Kretchmer, VP Marketing at Panaya. “We are proud that at Allianz Global Investors, we succeeded in delivering such a large scale project at record speed while reducing risk and ensuring the quality of their software releases.”
