Automated Software Rollouts For 150+ Production Test Systems

Discover The Project

A production test organization was updating tools by pointing everyone to a single executable on a shared drive. That created real operational risk: one bad update could take down production, and it was hard to prove exactly what software version ran a given test. Release effort was also high, taking roughly an hour per rollout.

Good Automation designed a deployment approach that made updates fast, controlled, and traceable. Tools self-updated to an assigned version, rollouts were staged, and rollback was deterministic. Release effort dropped to around five minutes, and the system stayed in service long-term with only an IT-driven OS migration.

Staged Rollouts

Jenkins-driven build and release pipeline with centralized artifacts and repeatable deployment.

Deterministic Rollback

Database-controlled version targeting allows rollback by reverting assigned versions.

End-to-End Traceability

Test records tied to the exact software version and the tool that executed the test.
