	“Our vision is to cut time and cost from the development process while maintaining the quality of our software. After an exhaustive review of firms to partner with to develop automation solutions, we felt qaSignature offered the most relevant expertise and experience to parallel our overall efforts in this area.”

-- Kang Wang, Ph.D, Vice President of Engineering, AMICAS

The Client
AMICAS, Inc. is a leader in medical image and information management solutions. The AMICAS Vision Series™ provides a complete, end-to-end solution for imaging centers, ambulatory care facilities, and radiology practices.

The Challenge
Manual test plans were taking weeks to run, making it costly to maintain product quality and perform all of the necessary testing. Because of the unique testing needs, automation was perceived as impractical. Other outside firms had tried to automate testing and failed to meet the high quality requirements.

The qaOptimization^® Solution
qaSignature performed diagnostics on three AMICAS products, defined the process complexities and bottlenecks, and worked with the AMICAS development team to design a unique testing solution for each product using the proprietary qaOptimization tools and methodologies.

The Results
qaOptimization led to dramatic and progressive improvements:

For the first product, time to market was reduced by 30-40%
For the second product, an ROI of 250-300% was achieved in the first year alone
For the third product, AMICAS achieved a breakthrough developer/tester ratio of 10:1 while achieving all of their testing objectives
