Client Overview and Challenge
A key player’s goal, in the clinical trial data industry, was to consolidate all clinical trial data on a unified platform.
The client faced the challenge of modifying their application, which was implemented using .NET libraries, to accommodate performance testing. These libraries had become deprecated and needed to be replaced. The client required a solution that was both easy to implement and maintain, and was flexible enough to adapt to future challenges.

Solution:

Veritas Automata presented three different options to the client for addressing their performance testing needs, which included Gatling, K6, and JMeter. After a thorough evaluation, JMeter was chosen. Yuxi Global then created 11 scenarios, designed to test the application’s performance under different capacity conditions. JMeter’s multiple post-processors and plugins were utilized to generate results in various formats, such as charts, plain text, or CSV files for more comprehensive reporting.
Client Satisfaction and Testimonial
“Generally, I am wary of putting my trust fully in an outsource partner, especially for a complete function like testing. As a software vendor, it’s critical to ensure that your product is effectively tested before rolling it out to your clients; missed bugs or issues can drastically impact the trust your customers have in you and your overall reputation. Working with Veritas Automata has alleviated those fears. From the first day we engaged both the team and the management, they have been both professional and diligent in managing our software testing as if it is their own product.

Client Challenge
The life science laboratories faced fierce competition in a rapidly evolving market, compounded by the struggle to hire technical talent quickly. They required a technology force multiplier to accelerate their development pace, surmount technical obstacles, and remain competitive.
Slow hiring of developers hindered their capacity to handle business demands. The life science labs company’s manual process based in Excel files led to error-prone scenarios, impeded competitiveness, and prevented scaling, leading to increased prices for sample tests. The laboratories needed to automate various aspects of their operations to improve accuracy, efficiency, and competitiveness in the market.
Technologies Used
Yuxi Global leveraged a range of advanced technologies to automate the laboratories’ processes. These technologies include:

Azure DevOps: Used for requirement tracking, CI/CD pipelines setup, version control, and automated unit testing.

React JS: Employed to develop Single Page Applications (SPAs) for each Life Science’s Lab project.

Microsoft SQL Server: Utilized as the project database.

Internet Information Services: Web servers used to expose the software users are consuming via their browsers.

C# and ASP.Net Core: Employed for backend logic and development.

Azure Service Bus: Facilitated communication between microservices.

Azure Application Insights: For monitoring and logging web app errors and warnings.

K6.io: Utilized for load testing to simulate real-world usage scenarios.

Domain Driven Design: Applied to encapsulate domain logic and improve software design.

Veritas Automata solution
The Life Science laboratories achieved significant improvements by automating several of their systems. Automation led to: reduced sample test/analysis prices, enhancing competitiveness in the market; streamlined operations, reduced errors, and increased efficiency; and enabled the life science labs to scale its operations seamlessly, accommodating a growing customer base to improve profitability without sacrificing accuracy.
