Full end-to-end testing in the telecom industry
In telecommunications, an increased number of features such as voice calling, SMS, data usage, interactive dialogues, Wi-Fi calling, APPs, conferencing, self-care, etc. make automated testing a must. QiTASC provides an end-to-end automation framework which meets all the needs of the telecom sector.
How QiTASC can help
QiTASC has experience with all major suppliers. We know the technology and the systems.
Testing in the telecommunications business is mainly divided into BSS and OSS testing. BSS testing focuses on business-critical use cases and OSS testing mainly on communications- and network-specific test cases. We work in both areas and offer automation of PoS, tarif selection and provisioning requests towards OSS. In OSS, we do provisioning and network element testing with different network types, services as well as real devices.
In the past, suppliers provided new software releases once a year, but with agile development release cycles shortened, testing becomes essential.
Use cases for telecommunications
The telecommunications network has a layered structure, which is necessary for it to function. QiTASC can apply its end-to-end automation framework to any of these services, no matter which layers it tackles – all actions are controlled by intaQt®.
List of use cases:
Functional E2E network testing
Functional E2E service testing
Provisioning testing
Load & stress testing
CPE testing
Rating & charging testing
Protocol conformity testing
Non-functional testing
Simulation of network functions
App testing
Use case: Telecom

Testing service
Outsource the development and execution of your test cases to our team of experts. We also consult customers when planning the integration of test automation in the testing process of their products.
Remote lab for test automation
With our remote lab, the test experts can be anywhere in the world, while the devices, the CPE and the tooling remain in the lab. Control all the equipment necessary to run a test case with a mouse via the user interface.
Portable testing lab in a suitcase
Carry your test automation lab with you and execute your test cases wherever they are needed. Watch Can Davutoglu introducing the portable lab for telecommunication tests; also available in German.
Benefits
Efficient and reliable!
Zero touch automation
Once automated, no actions relating to a device, SIM cards, etc. need manual interaction.
Project duration -50%
Automation of test cases and processes results in tests that run up to 50% faster.
Faster defect resolution
For faster correction and greater efficiency, we automatically collect, correlate and validate all data arising during the process.
Remote testing capabilities
Control devices and tools in the lab from home with remote control, remote audio support and remote manual interaction.
Easy test case development
The automation language is based on English and is learnable within 2-3 days. Test case scripts are used as a means of communication.
Smart scheduling
Test cases are scheduled according to the available resources.
Lab & live framework
The same test automation framework is used for factory acceptance, lab integration, lab acceptance, field acceptance and live monitoring.
Minimised maintenance
Various abstraction layers are integrated in our framework. Changes should not have any impact on the scripted test cases.
Depth testing and verification
Everything can be verified by rules: several interacting protocols, protocol logic, headers, values, correlating data, etc.
Proven technology
We eliminated disadvantages to create a unique tool for complex, challenging projects & environments.
Whole test pipe
We prepare all prerequisites, provision service, subscriber, devices, conduct tests, collect all evidence, verify evidence by rules, and do reporting.
Verified software quality
For aesthetic code, we continuously verify our code quality with TIOBEs metrics.
