Challenge

A US-based distributor of natural and whole foods relied on business-critical ordering and warehouse applications.

Its QA process was manual and inconsistent, and coverage of key business flows was low:

Low test coverage of critical applications.
Manual, inconsistent QA processes.
Defects disrupting ordering and fulfilment.
No QA metrics or reporting.

The company wanted a modern QA function to support faster change.

Solution

Winklix assessed and transformed the QA function.
