How Tricentis’s Robotic Process Automation (RPA) can accelerate the time to value of your software delivery

How Tricentis’s Robotic Process Automation (RPA) can accelerate the time to value of your software delivery

The time spent on a repetitive configuration process before completing a purchase order can negatively impact your software product’s time to value. For pre-sales and consulting engineers, this process usually involves repeatedly installing and configuring software to achieve a minimum-viable use case – i.e., meeting minimum requirements to prove that the software works as promised.

This process can hold more value if we use the customer’s testing environment and the newly installed software is able to work with their existing applications. The time to value can take anywhere from a couple of days to weeks, depending on a customer’s expertise, internal processes, resource allocation, or access/security dependencies. Fortunately, automating the process with Tricentis Tosca and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions can help users to benefit from their software sooner.

What makes this solution stand out?

Whether your customers exist as separate organizations within your company or as external B2B relationships, leveraging Tricentis Tosca as a testing tool and shifting into RPA has many advantages since the majority of the legwork – such as building the Tosca Modules to help drive the automation – is done upfront. Additionally, you may also be able to take advantage of reusable components within Tosca and reuse portions of regression suites to jump-start your RPA Bots with an easy-to-use import feature.

Tasktop’s experience with RPA

Tasktop works with the world’s leading organizations to integrate the tools that are required to plan, build and deliver software at scale. By connecting this complex and often implicit network of tools, teams and processes across the software delivery value stream from end-to-end, customers can automate the flow of product-critical information in real-time.

Through automation, Tasktop removes the manual handoffs between specialists at key stages in the value stream ideation to operation and back through the customer feedback loop. Through a traceable and visible workflow, customers can easily spot bottlenecks and opportunities for optimization to greatly accelerate the time to value of the software products that underpin their ability to compete in the Age of Digital Disruption.

As future Tasktop customers go through POCs and pilots prior to purchasing Tasktop Integration Hub, pre-sales and consulting engineers setup test scenarios within the customer infrastructure. Although Hub includes features such as templated artifact models and auto-mapping, there are still additional steps needed to fully configure an integration, even a minimum viable one.

Tasktop is currently experimenting with an automated robotic process through Tricentis Tosca and RPA to quickly have the customer setup with a standard integration with very little human interaction. Whether you’re a technical lead with a workload at capacity, or an executive that’s inherited the application, customer-facing RPA with Hub would have you up and running with little to no effort.
