The Challenge
The retailer operated separate systems for in-store POS, e-commerce, mobile app, and customer loyalty — creating inconsistent pricing, inventory visibility gaps, and a fragmented customer experience. Black Friday volumes regularly crashed their e-commerce platform.
Our Solution
We provided end-to-end quality assurance for their omnichannel platform unification, including real-time inventory synchronization testing across 800 stores, unified pricing engine validation, mobile app testing across 40+ device/OS combinations, and performance testing to handle 10x normal traffic during peak events.
Modern retail demands a seamless experience regardless of how customers choose to shop. Bridging the gap between physical stores, e-commerce, and mobile requires technology that works flawlessly at every touchpoint.
Our testing program covered the full customer journey — from product discovery on mobile, to checking in-store availability, to buy-online-pickup-in-store (BOPIS), to returns across any channel. We identified and resolved 1,800+ defects across these complex workflows.
Performance testing was particularly critical given the retailer’s Black Friday history. We simulated 500,000 concurrent users with realistic browsing and purchasing patterns, identifying and resolving 23 critical bottlenecks before the holiday season.
Post-launch, our continuous testing framework monitored transaction flows 24/7, catching issues before they impacted customers and ensuring the platform maintained its performance standards.
