Case Study
Transforming Testing Culture and Reducing Execution Time by 75%
This case study demonstrates how Autodesk’s PlanGrid team modernized its testing practices by transitioning from a disorganized Selenium framework to Cypress. Previously, limited test ownership and difficult debugging processes led to poor adoption and inconsistent quality. By implementing Cypress, the team enabled developers to take ownership of testing, simplifying test creation and maintenance. The introduction of reusable commands and seamless CI integration improved efficiency and consistency across teams. As a result, PlanGrid reduced test execution time by 75%, increased automation at scale, and established a strong culture of quality where testing is treated as an integral part of development.
