PhixFlow Testing

PhixFlow is a Low-Code/No-Code application development platform that innovatively streamlines software development. Using low-code allows the use of non-programmers, referred to as citizen developers, to accelerate the rollout of new applications within a company.

The platform offers a simple drag and drop function, enabling easy integration of data sources, data analysis and enhancement, user form and screen construction, and automation of business processes. The only requirement is imagination, not coding skills.

PhixFlow, established in 2004 and based in the tech hub of Cambridge, UK, offers a strong mix of software and expert data consultancy to clients from a wide range of industries including retail, telecoms, healthcare, utilities and financial services.

The platform features automation of manual, data-driven tasks, reducing the chance of human mistakes and boosting process efficiency. It identifies inconsistencies in data or business processes and then makes necessary alterations or corrections. It allows the creation of configurable forms and working models with simple drag-drops that are used to run advanced analytics, create user applications and extend main operational capability to fieldworkers using mobile devices.

PhixFlow is both versatile and scalable and can be easily tailored to accommodate various projects, big or small. Companies such as Tesco Direct, Virgin Media, Post Office, TalkTalk and Bupa Home Healthcare are employing the PhixFlow platform to curtail costs and further efficiency in their business operations.

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 PhixFlow 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 PhixFlow 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 PhixFlow 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.

But wait, keep hope. Fortunately, here is a solution: testRigor, an absolute game-changer!
