8base serves as a low-code platform designed to create and operate a wide variety of digital products such as SaaS solutions, web apps, and marketplaces among others. It aims to empower entrepreneurs and innovators in firmly established companies to realize their product ideas more efficiently, effectively, and cost-effectively. Moreover, digital agencies utilize 8base to increase their speed of delivery, boost their profit margins, and decrease dependency on limited and costly software development talents.
Hosted on AWS, 8base is a customizable, serverless low-code development framework that reveals the most potent GraphQL-based query language meant for APIs. What sets 8base apart from other platforms is its foundation built on standards and widely approved technologies that attract mainstream developers, while ensuring that a creator’s intellectual property can be transferred to other platforms whenever necessary.
8base provides four valuable services – 1) low-code tools for the development of software backends and APIs, 2) a serverless computing and storage infrastructure for operating applications created using 8base, 3) visual tools for frontend development, and 4) through a partner network, it offers design and development services to assist customers to build applications using 8base.
8base was first commercialized in 2019. At present, 8base constitutes a customer base of thousands which includes plenty of multi-tenant SaaS and marketplace startups, bespoke software development agencies and consultancies, along with larger organizations such as IBM Global Services/NATO and Florida International University.
All CRM systems are ultra-flexible and meant to be tailor-made for your organization’s unique needs and processes. If you want to set up 8base for your business or already have it, here is the news. It might get tricky with time because they release updates, new patches, and configuration changes every now and then. So, you have got to make sure that all the custom tweaks you have made still work after these updates.
Traditionally, these checks are run manually by QA teams or a few assigned team members. With your organization’s growth, the 8base workflows get complicated, and the volume of data being handled also turns massive. Manual testing could be time-consuming and prone to errors. Plus, it’s hard to cover everything with manual checks, given the vast breadth of the system.
That is where test automation comes in to save you from all this validation chaos. It can save you a ton of time and make sure everything runs smoothly, with minimum effort. But, of course, it is not all sunshine and rainbows. There are some challenges:
Constant Updates and Maintenance: CRM systems like 8base keep evolving and growing, so your automation scripts might break when they release new changes. So, you have got to keep an eye on these changes and have the test scripts updated and maintained accordingly. What an overhead!
Complex UI: The power of CRM systems lies in their ability to handle complex business workflows. Consequently, it reflects on its user interface with dynamic object IDs, nested iFrames, and detailed object trees. Automating it with traditional automation tools is like solving a puzzle; now and then, it will put you in a tight spot.
Custom Reports: The reports here are tailor-made for your specific needs, and automating them with legacy test automation tools requires your engineers to have expertise in programming skills.
Test Data: Handling massive data and sensitive information is a big deal. You need to be super careful with it. Requires using test data management to extract, mask, edit, and maintain the test data.
Skilled Engineers: You need smart people who know their way around automation tools and coding. Finding and keeping them can be a real challenge.
