Smart Metering Solution
A Case Study
Context
-
The client is a Fortune 100 Engineering and Tech Company
-
They were digitally transforming their product portfolio to cloud and as-a-service models
-
The challenge was to test their smart metering platform used by gas utilities for different customer configurations and field realities like network conditions
-
Diverse types of devices needed to be supported
-
Execute load, performance and network condition testing for legacy protocols
Before Doppelio
-
Functional testing with limited device types
-
High dependence on channel teams to test for other device types
-
Homegrown simulator limitations in replicating actual device behavior
-
Inability to test for field conditions that are dependent on network behavior in remote deployments
-
Test coverage, consistency and repeatability was a major challenge
-
Unable to baseline server performance and resource requirement
- Challenging field conditions were encountered in remote deployments
With Doppelio
-
Rapidly created virtual models of different types of meters and gateway
-
Tested for various customer configurations, unlimited scenarios, including happy & unhappy paths and required loads & network conditions
-
Faster product cycles, higher quality releases, and reduced cost of quality
Doppelio Impact
Faster testing with Doppelio’s UI
Faster product cycles with higher quality
Reduced dependence on channel partners
