UST and Leapwork Collaborate to Help Companies Reduce Risk During Digital Transformation

Market leaders will adopt an intuitive approach to aid businesses as they work to eliminate financial and reputational risks associated with software releases.

UST, a leading digital transformation solutions company, has announced a strategic alliance with Leapwork, a visual end-to-end test automation solution. The collaborative effort will empower UST to help its customers increase the scope and productivity of their automated testing processes. Adopting this approach improves the quality levels of products and reduces the operating costs of software development, all while accelerating the transition from siloed testing to unified automation.

UST has over two decades of experience as a leader in the digital transformation industry and its partnership with Leapwork will accelerate UST's ability to test automation challenges that span across different technologies. Furthermore, combining the insight and expertise of both teams will make it possible to bring in business teams at an early stage in the software quality assurance processes, ensuring that all products are designed to the highest possible standard.

Working Together to Transform Businesses

Software quality problems arise for most organizations as part of efforts to meet demand, increase competitiveness or deal with economic uncertainty. As a result of these factors, Leapwork's Risk Radar Report 2022 has found that up to 40% of software is released without proper testing. In addition, building, maintaining and scaling new digital infrastructure or products can be challenging for most companies, regardless of their size or sector. However, If the process is not handled correctly even business continuity can be at risk.

UST and Leapwork are both leaders in the field of quality assurance and their collaborative effort is devoted to identifying the root causes of these problems within organizations and reducing the potential risk to business continuity through a comprehensive business transformation process.

"The inclusion of Leapwork in our portfolio will further support our ability to reduce development costs, eliminate technical risks, improve product quality, reduce costs and accelerate delivery by reducing time to market. Furthermore, we are now able to formalize the testing process as well as efficiently automate tests, meaning that all these changes will occur quite rapidly," said Santiago Martinez, Head of QE & Testing Spain and Latin America, UST.

"The UST and Leapwork Partnership allows us to support more customers in their digital transformation journeys by enabling them to build, maintain and scale test automation; decreasing risk and improving time to value. UST helps the world's best organizations succeed through digital transformation and a wealth of industry expertise. With the addition of Leapwork's multi-platform Test Automation suite, this partnership brings out the best of both partners for the benefit of our customers," said Luke Von Schreiber, Vice President of Global Alliances and Channel Sales, Leapwork.
