Goal

What the client needed to achieve

As part of a large-scale SAP S/4HANA migration, a global consumer packaged goods company faced mounting delays caused by manual testing. Each new deployment expanded the regression suite, creating bottlenecks that slowed progress and increased costs.

To accelerate testing, the company partnered with Sendero to design and implement a scalable test automation program that would remove barriers, reduce manual effort, and improve overall migration efficiency.
