Company Overview

Stellic, a rapidly growing company specializing in academic planning software for higher education institutions, was facing challenges in maintaining reliable end-to-end (E2E) testing as their platform scaled. With over 80 employees and a growing customer base, they needed a solution that could not only automate E2E testing but also self-heal those tests as the application evolved.

The Challenge

Jeffrey Wescott, Head of Engineering at Stellic, was specifically searching for a tool that leveraged AI to generate and auto-heal E2E tests. The team was frustrated with existing tools that required constant manual intervention and maintenance, consuming valuable development resources and slowing down the release cycle.

"We needed a solution that wasn’t just another testing tool. We needed E2E testing as a service - a partner that understood our unique challenges and was invested in our success," said Jeffrey.

The Solution

Checksum provided Stellic with a comprehensive solution: AI-enabled self-healing E2E testing backed by a dedicated support team. The Checksum team took the time to understand Stellic’s specific needs and worked closely with them to implement a tailored testing strategy.

"The Checksum team was exceptional. They didn’t just deliver a tool; they delivered a service. They were genuinely invested in our success, working with us on pricing and ensuring we got the most value from the platform," added Jeffrey.

Additionally, Jeffrey mentioned that Stellic's product team are already envisioning broader test coverage. "I could easily see us having numerous tests just for certain new features and functionality on the product side," he said, emphasizing the potential for increased usage and the need for creative pricing solutions as they scale.

The Impact

Since partnering with Checksum, Stellic has:

  • Reduced manual testing time by 40% through AI-generated and self-healing E2E tests.

  • Increased test coverage across critical user journeys without increasing developer workload.

  • Gained confidence in releasing new features faster, knowing that Checksum’s team was available to support any testing challenges.

"Checksum provides more than just AI-driven testing; they provide peace of mind. We no longer worry about broken tests or lengthy testing cycles. Instead, we can focus on scaling our platform and delivering value to our customers."

Checksum continues to work closely with Stellic, evolving their testing strategy as their platform scales and ensuring that their testing framework remains robust and reliable.
