Abstract

The project was conducted in a financial organization providing various products of traditional banking and online banking. Being a huge enterprise, a lot of applications and customer records has to be stored and kept safely. Before lunching any new application a thorough testing of its functionality has to be done. Security breaches or vulnerability are unacceptable. Customer’s sensitive data cannot be compromised. A thoroughly tested application is required to do all the transaction for a big organization like this. Every new application and every new updates have to be tested end to end. Many test accounts are created to test different scenarios. Creating a test account and conditioning is a major part of the time consuming process during the software development life cycle. When the code is moved to the integration region where the newly developed code is tested along with the already existing application, second round of testing is required. Again tester in integration testing has to create the test accounts and test the same functionality as of system testing. To remove this redundant task of creating same set of test account to test in both region and make a common reusable framework “Data Refresh” application was introduced.
