A leading full-service home mortgage originator with 20+ joint ventures, a wide range of products, and operates 100+ branches across the US.
The U.S.-based mortgage provider struggled with inconsistent software quality and slow release cycles, which impacted customer experience and operational efficiency. As digital transformation accelerated, the organization needed to scale its testing capabilities without compromising speed or accuracy. Legacy testing practices and a lack of centralized governance made it difficult to maintain quality standards across teams and applications.
Additionally, siloed QA efforts and limited automation led to high defect rates and increased manual workload, slowing down development and deployment processes. The company recognized the need for a structured, organization-wide approach to quality assurance that could align teams, standardize practices, and embed automation deeply into the software development lifecycle.
After studying the client’s key needs, Marlabs decided to create an automation strategy to ensure higher application quality and leverage test automation to speed up the time to market. To complement this, a Center of Excellence (COE) for governance and best practices were put in place. Marlabs established a Qualitia automation-specific quality engineering practice to deliver the following:
The client’s key goal of improving application quality was met while the training, best practices, and knowledge bases ensured that its cross-skilled teams became more productive. The reusable functions we created also ensure products are easy to maintain. Any issue with components found in one product can be fixed automatically for all the products to achieve faster development.
