Ranorex Studio Case Study

vRad — Virtual Radiologic Corporation

Introduction

This case study of vRad – Virtual Radiologic Corporation is based on a December 2017 survey of Ranorex Studio customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“At vRad, I do not attempt to measure “time saved” in terms of “test cases automated.” Instead, we automate apps from ground up and get rid of test cases as we can. So instead of reduced time to test, instead what we see is developers more eager to make large changes to the code base with confidence. This enables our testers to focus on exploratory testing versus exhaustively testing everying"
