Introduction
Trusted Shops, a leading software development company based in Cologne, Germany is committed to ensuring trust and safety in the e-commerce industry. With critical services like buyer protection and review management, ensuring high-quality software releases is critical. However, slow legacy tools, manual test management processes, and disconnected automation workflows slowed development cycles. To overcome these challenges, Trusted Shops adopted BrowserStack AI- powered Test Management, resulting in faster releases, significantly reduced test creation effort, and a unified quality ecosystem.
Slow tools hindering velocity and coverage
Before migrating to BrowserStack, the Engineering team at Trusted Shops relied on Xray integrated with Jira for their test management, but the solution was creating significant friction across the development lifecycle. Their incumbent tool was slow and featured an outdated, non-intuitive interface, resulting in a steep learning curve for new team members, who often struggled to adapt to the workflow.
The operational inefficiencies were severe. Nischay Papneja, Senior Software QA Engineer, noted that the process of linking test cases to automated tests was “very painful” and manual. This lack of seamless integration caused noticeable delays in the release cycle and drove down overall team productivity. Specifically, identifying the right tests took about 20% longer than necessary compared to modern standards. Furthermore, because the tool was difficult to navigate, it negatively impacted test coverage; the team found it harder to identify blind spots or determine which functional tests needed to be added, leaving potential gaps in their quality assurance process
