Test Automation for Transportation Management Systems
Every little change in your transportation management system (TMS) has the potential to disrupt the connected systems and integrations that keep freight moving. Cycle Labs tests those critical workflows end-to-end before they reach production, exposing failures early so your team can release with confidence and keep shipments on schedule.
60% Less Manual Testing Effort.
50% Fewer Support Tickets.
The Problems We’re Made to Fix
TMS deployments touch nearly every system in your operation, and testing hasn’t kept pace with how often those systems change.
Manual Retesting Consumes Your Team
Teams manually retest carrier and system connections after every change, pulling hours away from other important tasks and duties. Cycle’s prebuilt test libraries and human-readable CycleScript let your team reuse tests instead of rebuilding them for every release.
Failures Surface After Go Live
A broken integration usually isn’t caught until a shipment is delayed or a carrier rejects the load, putting you in a hard position. Cycle’s end-to-end regression testing validates carrier and routing integrations while they’re still in a test environment, ahead of Go Live.
Releases Stack Faster Than QA Can Keep Up
Monthly software releases accumulate faster than manual testing can validate them, delaying the updates your operation needs to run smoothly. Cycle can run regression tests overnight as part of your CI/CD pipeline, keeping pace with your release calendar automatically.
One Change Ripples Everywhere
A single change to one system can disrupt routing, carrier assignments, or billing without anyone noticing until the customer is very unhappy. Cycle’s end-to-end testing checks routing, carrier assignments, and billing together in one pass, catching what four-wall testing misses.
What Makes Cycle Labs Different
Cycle Labs gives your team the coverage and visibility to test faster, catch issues earlier, and keep every transportation management system release moving with confidence.
Regression and Performance Testing
Run full regression and performance tests across your TMS and every connected logistics system.
Prebuilt Test Libraries
Start from ready-made test templates that allow your team to rapidly generate testing.
Continuous, Overnight Testing
Tests can run automatically overnight, so your team wakes up to reliable results every morning.
Reporting Dashboard
Get a clear, actionable view of every test result in one simple dashboard.
Built for Blue Yonder and More
Cycle can integrate directly with the TMS platforms your team already runs today.
Capabilities and Solutions
Generate transactional test data for routing, carrier selection, and billing scenarios, so your team can validate critical TMS workflows without spending hours on manual data setup.
CycleScript
Write and review tests in a human-readable scripting language built for technical and business teams alike.
CI/CD Integration
Run tests natively inside Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitLab, or Bitbucket Pipelines as part of your existing workflow.
Cycle Intelligence can turn your business processes into test automation automatically, saving you time on every release.
”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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which TMS platforms does Cycle support?
Cycle is system-agnostic by design, so if your TMS runs in a browser, Cycle can test it. Blue Yonder TMS has a prebuilt library ready today, with around 100 test cases and 500 supporting utilities across UI, Smartbench, and API layers. We can also scope a dedicated library for your setup.
Can Cycle test carrier and routing integrations?
Yes. Cycle validates the full shipment lifecycle across every connected system your TMS touches, including carrier, routing, and billing integrations tied to your WMS and ERP.
How fast can we get our first test suite running?
Most teams start running real tests within days, using Cycle’s prebuilt templates as the starting point. From there, our team works alongside yours to customize the remaining test cases for your specific configurations and customizations.
Does testing require our team to write code?
CycleScript is human-readable, so both technical and operations teams can write and review tests directly. Business analysts can describe a workflow in plain language, while your technical team builds out the more complex test logic behind it.
