INTRACOM IT Services Middle East and Africa recently signed an agreement with Capital Bank of Jordan, according to which INTRACOM will provide Capital Bank with an automated testing tool which would automate the testing activities for its core banking applications using the Validata testing tool and release management.
The Validata tool will enable Capital Bank to further enhance its operations by utilizing advanced core banking applications and undergoing a meticulous testing phase. The Validata tool will also offer solutions that correspond with industry requirements.
With Validata being a world leading testing solution for banks and financial enterprises, it will help in streamlining the testing processes and eliminating the risk and uncertainty involved in ad-hoc testing. In addition, rather than going through a time-consuming, impractical and risky manual testing process, INTRACOM will use the creative Validata solution to ensure greater precision, shorter testing time and reliability of all test assets created.
INTRACOM will then use Validata to develop a well-defined Release Management Tool that is a vital component in any software project, and if done well provides the ability to manage and organize application updates and ensure that it aligns with business operations and their objectives. A well-defined Release Management Tool can give the organization an efficient and effective way to organize rolling out of new software.
INTRACOM's CEO Tareq Abu Sharar said that INTRACOM is working intensively and collaboratively with its international partners to cover the overall needs of INTRACOM's clients in Jordan and the MEA region. He noted, "With INTRACOM and Validata, banks can avoid potentially serious risks and reduce the significant costs associated with testing their core banking applications in the implementation process. Therefore, INTRACOM will be working with Capital Bank on loading the Bank's test cases into the solution that will automate case execution, defect/change management, progress reporting, and release management to ensure the full integration of its core banking applications."
In turn, Capital Bank's General Manager Mr. Haytham Kamhiyah said, "We are pleased be cooperating with INTRACOM, whom are leading experts in the provision of cutting-edge IT systems. This step stems from our efforts towards enhancing our day-to-day operational efficiency, and corresponds with our ongoing interest in consistently developing our capabilities in order to continue to provide superior and competitive banking services that meet our clients' expectations and that enable us to maintain our advanced standing in the Jordanian banking market."
