Test Automation: Fix Bugs Faster and Reduce Risks

Studies show that when a bug is fixed at the moment it is detected, or on the same day, it takes 24 times less effort than if corrected three weeks later. Test automation can be your ally in improving operational efficiency and minimizing the risk of bugs.

Adopt this practice as part of a continuous improvement process, with well-defined and incremental steps, supported by OGI’s specialists. Using OGI Test Flow, our team helps address the critical challenges of adoption, enabling a well-managed cultural change process.

Trusted by Leading Companies

With over 20 years of experience in automated testing, we developed the OGI Test Flow (OTF) framework—an incremental methodology tailored to the particularities of each project. We apply OTF to help our clients implement testing with cultural change to achieve scalable benefits. At the start of each project, we define KPIs to be reassessed at the end, ensuring objective decision-making. These include the number of automated tests, code coverage rate, bug-fixing time, defect reopening rate, and other quality indicators.

Our methodology

Inception – Understanding the current architecture, system dependencies, technologies, work context, process analysis, and data structures.

Design – Defining the test types and technologies to be used, considering the company’s context and specific goals.

Test Environment Setup – Installing and configuring the defined tools and environment for creating and running automated tests.

First Test Creation – The team jointly creates the first tests to be executed with each new development or bug fix.

Golden Trunk – New developments and bug fixes only move to production if all tests run successfully. Here, the team learns to identify whether a problem lies in an outdated test or in production code.

Test Driven Bug Fixing – For each new bug, the team creates a new test replicating the scenario, and only then develops the fix. This reduces defect reopenings and reinforces the practice of writing tests before production code.

Test Driven Development (TDD) – At this stage, the team begins writing tests at the start of new development processes. The team becomes capable of maintaining the quality of new developments while expanding test coverage to include additional parts of the system.
