Case Study: From Bottlenecks to Breakthroughs – Johnson Matthey’s SAP Testing Transformation

Discover how Johnson Matthey cut testing time by 90%, reduced development costs by 75%, and tripled the speed of process discovery – all while supporting a complex global SAP rollout.

In this case study, you’ll learn how Worksoft helped Johnson Matthey:

  • Replace manual testing with scalable automation
  • Streamline SAP deployments without compromising quality
  • Shift testing left to catch defects earlier
  • Turn testing from a bottleneck into a business accelerator
Challenges

Rolling out SAP globally is no small feat – especially in a high-stakes manufacturing environment. For Johnson Matthey, the pressure was on to deliver fast while maintaining quality and avoiding disruptions to critical operations. But their testing process was working against them.

  • Manual testing slowed delivery and consumed valuable resources
  • Risk of defects posed a threat to production uptime
  • Limited visibility into business processes made test planning inefficient
  • Scaling testing across global teams and systems proved difficult
Solution

Recognizing that speed and quality couldn’t be traded off, Johnson Matthey turned to automation. With Worksoft Certify, they reimagined their testing strategy – moving from reactive, manual testing to a proactive, scalable model that matched the pace of change.

  • Shifted testing earlier in the lifecycle with a “shift-left” approach
  • Automated end-to-end testing across SAP and integrated applications
  • Delivered faster, more reliable test cycles with less effort
  • Gained business process insight to focus testing where it matters most
RESULTS

The impact was immediate. What once took weeks could now be done in hours – without sacrificing confidence or control. Testing became a strategic enabler, not a bottleneck.

  • 90% time savings vs. manual testing
  • 75% reduction in test development costs
  • 3x faster process discovery for more targeted, risk-based testing

“With Certify we could do extensive testing in less than three hours – saving many weeks of manual testing effort.”
