Summary

Okta, a leader in the $6 billion enterprise identity management market, had to scale its testing on multiple browser platforms and mobile devices for its cloud-based system. Before using Sauce's Testing Cloud, Okta ran Selenium tests in a local grid, which was costly and time-consuming. With Sauce, they can instantly scale their testing, greatly improving developer productivity and reducing debugging time. The transition led to a massive reduction in debugging time from 3 days to 3 hours, an expansion of test scope to run hundreds of tests in parallel, and a significant decrease in the time taken to run core test suite from 24 hours to 10 minutes.
