Why the Temenos Keysight Partnership Transforms Digital Banking QA and Automated Software Testing
Banks are accelerating digital transformation, adopting cloud strategies, and modernizing core systems to meet customer expectations. But rapid change introduces risk. Defects in payments, onboarding, authentication, or reporting can create regulatory exposure and damage brand trust.
That’s why more financial institutions are looking for automated testing and digital banking QA solutions that reduce manual effort and improve accuracy. The partnership between Temenos and Keysight brings together two proven leaders to streamline delivery, reduce risk, and support high-velocity financial services testing.
Who Temenos Are: A Global Leader in Digital Banking Platforms
Temenos provides one of the most widely used core banking and digital banking platforms globally, supporting more than 3,000 financial institutions.
Their platform enables financial institutions to modernize legacy systems, scale customer onboarding, streamline payments, and deliver personalized digital experiences.
But as Temenos helps banks innovate faster, the demand for reliable, automated software testing tools grows. Every upgrade, configuration change, or new digital channel requires consistent, repeatable validation.
Who Keysight Are: Leaders in Intelligent, End-to-End Test Automation
Keysight Technologies is a global leader in financial services test automation, continuous quality engineering, and intelligent automation across complex, integrated systems.
Keysight Eggplant Test uses AI, model-based automation, and non-intrusive testing to validate real banking journeys end-to-end, beginning at the UI across all technology layers through APIs down to databases and core processes.
Its strengths include:
- Automation across web, mobile, and desktop interfaces
- Testing in secure, regulated, or locked-down environments
- Model-based automation that is resilient to change
- Rapid regression testing for financial applications
- Insights into UX, performance, and functional quality
This makes Keysight a natural fit for Temenos customers who need reliable, scalable automation.
Why the Temenos Keysight Partnership Matters for Financial Institutions
Financial organizations face increasing pressure to accelerate delivery while reducing operational and regulatory risk. Traditional QA methods struggle with the modern banking complexity, including:
- Multiple layers of UI, APIs, core banking processes, and batch systems
- Frequent upgrade cycles and configuration changes
- Integration with third-party systems for payments, KYC, credit, and reporting
- High expectations for reliability across digital and mobile channels
At the same time, many financial institutions are moving towards modular renovation, modernizing components in phases instead of attempting risky, large-scale transformations. This approach reduces disruption but increases the need for reliable consistent validation between modules, especially when new services, features, or infrastructure are introduced.
This is where the partnership creates significant value. Keysight Eggplant acts as the bridge between modular upgrades, service enhancements, and the live banking systems. Its non-invasive, model-based testing ensures banks and other financial institutions can:
- Deploy new modules safely without breaking existing workflows
- Validate interoperability between legacy and new infrastructure
- Maintain uptime and customer availability during upgrades and system modernization
- Detect regressions before they hit production
How Keysight Eggplant Supports Financial Services Automated Testing
1. End-to-End Journey Testing
Keysight Eggplant enables Temenos customers to automate full end-to-end workflows, including onboarding, payments, authentication, loan origination, and customer servicing.
This goes far beyond UI testing and supports the kind of integrated validation banks require for compliance and operational resilience.
2. Model-Based Automation for Faster Upgrades
Software updates are released frequently. Banks also make ongoing configuration changes. Keysight Eggplant’s model-based approach reduces script maintenance, making upgrade testing faster, more stable, and less expensive.
3. Non-Intrusive Testing Ideal for Secure Banking Environments
Financial institutions often operate in highly restricted, secure environments.
Keysight Eggplant performs digital banking QA without requiring in-app instrumentation or code changes, making it ideal for regulated systems.
4. Reduced Risk for Critical Banking Journeys
Automating regression testing, functional testing, and cross-channel journeys helps banks:
- Prevent production outages
- Improve release reliability
- Reduce customer-facing defects
- Shorten UAT cycles
- Maintain compliance with industry regulations
5. Unified Quality Engineering Across Financial Services
Keysight Eggplant’s broader capabilities, such as performance testing and monitoring, support a complete approach to financial services test automation.
Banks gain full visibility across user experience, performance, and functionality.
