Increasing feature velocity without sacrificing quality

Webomates CQ regression testing was able to help Priceline identify defects within 24 hours of creating a build and continued to monitor and identify defects. This gave Priceline an unprecedented ability to decide whether to deploy the build into production much faster and at reduced costs.

Webomates CQ identified 168 & defects, 38 of which were business-impacting defects that helped Priceline/Flights “save tens of thousands of dollars” in production.
