Maximize Innovation and Solution Quality
The last few years has placed a public spotlight on the intricate ballet of back-end technology and process engineering that supports the food supply chain. Your warehouse IT systems face unique strains from daily store distributions, complex aging requirements, seasonal spikes and changing customer demand patterns. Meanwhile, your team needs to be agile and lean, but also provide a high standard of solution quality to ensure a consistent experience for customers.
Automated software testing is a powerful tool for organizations in the food supply chain that want to increase their agility in an ever-changing world and implement new technologies with less risk. By automating test cases for high-impact processes and channel-specific functionality, you can ensure that business growth doesn’t impact existing customer relationships. The Cycle platform, accelerates your test automation efforts through pre-built utilities and saves you thousands of hours as you expand to new sites or your client requirements change.

Recommended Resources
My favorite part of Cycle is load testing and we're able to emulate a hundred users or more with just two or three people and that is huge when you're going through testing and emulating a real life environment before you actually go live.

Cycle® allows us to quickly ramp up and down specific areas of our operations, which exposes stress points we can quickly correct. Our previous testing processes were never able to handle the scale and complexity of our models quickly enough for us to see the impacts and prepare the solutions. Before Cycle, the potential effects of updates or changes could only be seen in the production environment, when it’s too late to adjust. Cycle gives us the edge and advantage we need to perform our best and ensure successful events for our customers.

Cycle Labs has a set of pre-written test scenarios that are called the test library, and that is a huge headstart for anyone that wants to use Cycle Labs as a testing tool for warehouse management system implementations.

What I like most about Cycle® is the ease of use and setup for the warehouse management solutions I work with. I also like the predefined steps that come with the test library.

Michaels completed a Blue Yonder WMS system upgrade and Cycle was used extensively for automated testing. Cycle gave our QA team capability to perform load testing that we previously could never do. Cycle is essential when building test scripts. Overall this is an excellent, easy to learn tool and I recommend it for anyone embarking on a QA automation journey for Blue Yonder WMS.

We love the Cycle tool, we run our suite weekly, it has been a life saver, just last week it found an error with a patch, I don’t think we would have found the issue any other way.

We desperately need a regression suite to help us deliver quality code faster with less bugs and it would enable us to take version updates from BY more timely and efficiently.
