EyeVip’s Shift from Manual Testing to Scalable Automation with Testsigma
About EyeVip
EyeVip is a Switzerland based event management software company, providing organizations with tools to manage invitations, guest registrations, and event communications with ease. As the platform evolved, EyeVip’s development and QA teams faced increasing demands to maintain high product quality while keeping up with faster release cycles.
Challenges Before Testsigma
Before adopting Testsigma, EyeVip relied entirely on manual testing. While this approach initially worked for their smaller product scope, the growing complexity of the platform introduced several pain points:
Time-Consuming Regression Cycles
- Regression testing became a bottleneck, taking significant time and effort before each release.
- Manual checks often delayed release timelines.
Scalability Issues
- As the platform expanded, keeping test coverage consistent became increasingly difficult.
- The QA team struggled to keep up with the growing number of features and test scenarios.
Risk of Inconsistent Coverage
- Manual processes left room for human error, leading to occasional gaps in test coverage.
- Critical bugs sometimes slipped into production due to repetitive testing fatigue.
EyeVip realized that to maintain speed and quality, they needed to transition toward a more automated, reliable, and scalable testing approach.
Why EyeVip Chose Testsigma
EyeVip evaluated several automation tools before selectingTestsigma. The key reasons for their choice included:
Ease of Use for Non-Coders
- Testsigma’s NLP-driven test creation allowed non-technical team members to contribute directly to test automation.
- Reduced dependency on engineering resources for writing automation scripts.
Reusable Test Components
- The platform’s component-based approach streamlined test creation and maintenance, enabling faster updates to multiple test cases at once.
Scalability for the Future
- Testsigma could support their evolving needs as both theproduct and team expanded.
Positive Evaluation Experience
- The trial phase reinforced their confidence in the platform, with Testsigma’s team providing responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive support throughout.
Implementation & Early Automation Journey
EyeVip’s automation journey started gradually. Given limited QA resources, the team prioritized high-value, complex test cases that consumed the most manual effort.
- Initial Automation Coverage: ~ 25% of test coverage within 6 weeks
- Focus Areas:
- Critical regression scenarios
- Repetitive manual flows
- Features with high business impact
Even with modest initial coverage, the automated tests immediately freed up the QA team to focus on exploratory testing and more strategic quality initiatives.
Key Outcomes & Business Impact
Time Savings on Repetitive Work
- Automated regression checks reduced hours of manual testing per release cycle.
Earlier Bug Detection
- Tests caught defects earlier in the development process, reducing last-minute release delays.
Improved Test Reliability
- Consistent execution ensured no critical test scenarios were skipped or overlooked.
Foundation for Scaling Automation
- With the groundwork laid, EyeVip is now positioned to expand automation coverage significantly in the coming months.
Testsigma provides a strong foundation for our test automation: user-friendly for non-coders, adaptable for complex scenarios, and backed by a supportive team committed to our success.

Looking Ahead
EyeVip’s journey with automation is just beginning. By building on their initial success and expanding automation coverage, they aim to:
- Increase regression automation to cover a majority of test cases.
- Shorten release cycles without compromising quality.
- Further involve non-technical team members in test creation.
With Testsigma as a partner, EyeVip is confident in scaling their automation capabilities and delivering a high-quality event management experience for all their customers.
