Automated Labs and Testing

Amplify. Accelerate. Advance your lab & test automation. In a years-long process managing the challenges of digital transformation, a wide range of enterprise organizations have assessed and adopted an array of disruptive technologies. These technologies include software-defined networks (SDN), SD-WAN, Zero Trust (ZT), Secure Web Gateways, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), private networks for enterprise environments (and more), to provide the leading edge of enhancement and innovation. A commensurate ripple effect has been witnessed with enterprises facing waves of technology disruption with compounding complexity, surges in costs, and increasing regulatory requirements. To be prepared, a growing number of organizations recognize they need to change their testing practices to maximize productivity while dramatically reducing Capex and Opex by modernizing their lab and test infrastructures.

Greater technology complexity, supplier diversity, and very shortened innovation and upgrade cycles are defining next-generation network deployments. There is also the need to support new working environment paradigms such as remote work, all while keeping costs down. Network labs are significantly challenged to do this in a more agile and efficient way.

An automation solution is an answer to a productivity challenge. At one extreme, companies like Amazon will produce a new release on average of every 16 seconds. At the other end of the spectrum, very conservative organizations will generate a publicly consumable release, or GA, every six months. But, the vast majority of organizations find themselves in between.

Spirent’s Automation Platforms provide the bridge to close the chasm between Development and QA. Our solution ensures that the different teams are empowered with the same understanding of the end customers’ use cases and operational environments, thus increasing engineering efficiency.

Velocity enables unprecedented automation delivering dramatically increased efficiency and reduced CapEx. [Read Case Study](https://www.spirent.com/assets/case-study-calix-consolidates-labs-into-single-automated-lab-with-spirent-velocity)
