To find a modern testing solution that could handle enterprise challenges such as theirs, **Varian turned to [Infostretch](https://www.infostretch.com/). Infostretch kickstarted Varian’s continuous testing efforts using the Tricentis continuous testing platform**, leveraging Tricentis’ comprehensive [Salesforce testing](https://www.tricentis.com/salesforce) capabilities and its flexibility in testing across other enterprise applications and environments.

With the Tricentis continuous testing platform, Varian established an automated end-to-end testing process that crosses Salesforce, SAP, and other connected applications. To ensure the traceability critical for their industry, they use Tricentis qTest to plan tests and link to them to user stories created in Jira. These **tests are then automated at the unit, API and GUI layers using Tricentis Tosca**.

Tosca’s test data management, [service virtualization](https://www.tricentis.com/case-studies/salesforce-test-automation-brings-agility-to-varian), and risk-based testing capabilities help Varian solve other speed and scalability issues that can throttle testing. Two of the biggest testing bottlenecks are access to test data and access to test systems. Varian creates and manage test data within Tosca to ensure the right test data is always available to automated tests. Service virtualization means **automated testing can occur even when dependent systems are unavailable** or not yet created. And Tosca’s risk-based test coverage ensures Varian’s business-critical functions are always tested, enabling the company to move fast with confidence.

To streamline quality even further into Varian’s development and deployment processes, the entire continuous testing process **integrates into their CI/CD pipeline** and automates the process of code promotion from one environment to the next with version control.

“Now, when the code is checked in, build verification and smoke tests are run automatically to create a quality gate,” notes Infostretch. “The application can be promoted to **the QA environment in a completely automated hands-free way**. This allows for a more thorough and QA-oriented test suite. After any challenges are found and bugs are fixed, a manual approval promotes the code into production.”

One measure of success for Varian’s testing transformation: Salesforce testing cycles that **used to consume a 10-person team for two weeks are now completed automatically in just three days**. With Tricentis, Varian’s Salesforce test automation is not only helping the company protect its stringent quality standards; it is also helping them deliver life-saving innovations, faster.

_**“Salesforce is an essential component in the enterprise world, bu it’s one of many key components. When testing end-to-end processes, you need a solution that’s capable of testing transactions as they go from one application to another and that can validate the transactions at multiple layers…the GUI, the APIs, and even the database underneath.”**_
