Riseup Labs offers comprehensive Quality Assurance (QA) services to numerous companies across various industries, including finance and insurance, where precision, data integrity, and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable. 

We support a Fortune 500 company specializing in vehicle protection products, delivering QA across 65 OEMs, 12,000+ dealerships, and over 19 million contract holders. Our expert-led manual and automated testing frameworks ensure flawless contract creation, accurate rate validation, and seamless front-end and back-end functionality. This results in faster release cycles, reduced turnaround times, and maximized ROI, while mitigating financial and regulatory risk at every stage.

Objectives

>> Validate complex business logic across financial workflows to guarantee accuracy in rate calculations, eligibility checks, and risk assessments

>> Strengthen data integrity/interfaces, ensuring seamless exchange between UI, APIs, and databases

>> Automate regression and critical-path testing to support accelerated releases without sacrificing quality

>> Verify document generation, especially contracts and policy PDFs, for content accuracy and compliance

>> Provide round‑the‑clock reliability via production readiness validation, on-call support, and patch approval

Challenges

>> Ensuring seamless alignment between front-end workflows and backend business rules, especially for rate and policy calculations

>> Designing test environments with dynamic, finance-specific datasets covering real-world edge scenarios

>> Maintaining full test coverage during frequent releases is typical in agile financial tech deployments

>> Automating the validation of highly formatted documents (e.g., PDFs) that encapsulate multi-line legal clauses and numeric data

>> Navigating complex element mapping during UI automation and establishing a reliable workflow mapping

Problems

  • High risk of contractual errors due to missing data cross-checks in document generation
  • Application failures and miscalculations in finance and insurance logic under complex input variations
  • Reactive and manual testing approaches burden inefficient release cycles
  • Incomplete test coverage leading to edge-case defects surfacing in production

Solutions

1. Strategic QA Framework

  • Mapped blueprints of “golden flows” with SMEs, covering end-to-end finance lifecycle scenarios from quote-to-contract
  • Created regression suites in TestRail aligned with critical business flows

2. Robust Automation & Coverage

  • Introduced data-driven automation with tools (e.g., Katalon Studio), integrating front-end, API, and backend validations
  • Adopted AI-driven regression prioritization, mirroring leading-edge QE practices

3. Backend & CI/CD Integration

  • Used MySQL/pgAdmin for backend verification; Postman and SoapUI for API testing
  • Implemented production monitoring, patch validation, and on-call support to ensure system stability

4. Document Validation Engine

  • Developed pattern-matching extractors and coordinate checks to fact-check PDF contracts, ensuring alignment with legal and quantitative standards

5. Continuous Governance & Production Safety

  • Operationalized Shift Left testing via BDD, and Shift Right via SRE-guided performance inspections
  • Established a QA shared-services model and golden‑thread monitoring framework

Impact

Error-free contracts & financial data
Automated PDF validations eliminate manual oversights, reducing document-related defects by up to 90%, and ensuring accurate, audit-ready financial agreements

Quicker releases
Regression automation and on-call support accelerate deployments, cutting test cycles by up to 70% in finance QA environments

Higher reliability
Defect rates are reduced to near-zero in production, with proactive performance testing and fast resolution cycles helping teams achieve <1% defect leakage

Scalable QA operations
Shared-services QA models reduce redundant QE efforts and improve governance, delivering up to 40% resource optimization and cross-product reuse

Regulatory resilience: Validated workflows and documented processes ensure audit readiness

Data confidence: Backend and API cross-checks safeguard finance-calculation integrity, protecting against revenue leakages

By blending finance-specific QA rigor with comprehensive automation, Riseup Labs empowers insurance and banking platforms to deploy with confidence, security, precision, and timeliness.
