Client Overview
The State Street Alpha asset servicing platform helps institutional and wealth management firms manage any asset, in any market. Delivering this requires large-scale, multi-year transformations across front, middle, and back offices, involving hundreds of stakeholders and complex workflows. Testing is crucial and had relied heavily on manual processes, limiting scalability and efficiency. Diverse client needs added complexity, requiring custom workflows and configurations for each Alpha implementation.
State Street is now using automation to test its native app. Early proofs of concept (PoCs) reduced test execution time by 67%. Multiplied across thousands of tests annually, this will create major time savings. The team is exploring agentic automation and UiPath Autopilot™ to generate and execute test cases, identify issues, and trace them back to requirements. This approach will improve testing speed and accuracy, reduce service delivery time, and further energize teams by giving them back time for more value-added work.
The team doesn’t want to do manual testing—just as much as management doesn’t want them to. [Automation is] freeing up their time to work on more valuable tasks.
