About Odeabank
Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Istanbul, Odeabank is one of Turkey’s innovative financial institutions, known for its customer-centric approach and strong digital transformation vision. With a growing technology organization and an increasing focus on mobile-first banking, Odeabank continues to invest in modern testing practices and cloud-based solutions to ensure high-quality, secure, and seamless digital experiences. As part of its strategy, the bank leverages next-generation tools to improve operational efficiency, accelerate release cycles, and enhance collaboration between QA and development teams.
Overview
As mobile applications became central to customer engagement, Odeabank needed a more scalable and efficient approach to mobile device testing. The traditional process required distributing physical devices to QA engineers, leading to fragmented test execution, limited device availability, and difficulty maintaining consistency across teams. Seeking to eliminate these challenges, Odeabank partnered with Testinium and adopted the LiveTesting platform.
The goal was to provide QA teams with instant, cloud-based access to real mobile devices, reduce dependency on physical hardware, increase test visibility, and ensure smoother collaboration across projects.
Challenges
- Managing mobile testing with limited physical devices distributed across QA teams
- High operational cost and complexity related to maintaining and updating devices
- Inconsistent testing processes across different teams and products
- Low test visibility and difficulty tracking device usage, test history, and user activity
- Slower test execution and bottlenecks caused by device availability issues
- Lack of centralized reporting and traceability for quality and compliance needs
Solutions
- Testinium collaborated closely with Odeabank to modernize its mobile testing ecosystem using the LiveTesting platform.
- Provided cloud-based access to real iOS and Android devices, eliminating the need to distribute physical phones to each QA engineer
- Enabled parallel testing and full device sharing across teams, increasing operational efficiency
- Introduced LiveTesting’s advanced features such as session recording, command-level logs, and network monitoring, improving observability and debugging speed
- Centralized device management, ensuring every device is always updated, healthy, and ready for testing
- Delivered an auditable and traceable test environment with detailed reporting on test sessions, device usage, and historical logs
Results
- Significant reduction in the number of physical devices required for QA teams
- Increased test productivity by enabling multiple teams to share and use devices simultaneousl
- Faster debugging cycles through session video recordings, logs, and real-time device insights
- Higher device availability and improved test reliability through centralized cloud management
- Improved traceability and audit readiness with detailed, structured session reporting
- Accelerated release cycles driven by faster test execution and reduced manual effort
Through its collaboration with Testinium, Odeabank successfully transitioned from a hardware-dependent mobile testing setup to a scalable, cloud-based testing model powered by LiveTesting. This transformation enabled the bank to increase productivity, improve test transparency, and achieve faster, more predictable release cycles—while maintaining the highest levels of quality and compliance.
