AI-enhanced Test Automation
Build Resilient, Scalable Automation That Delivers Real ROI
Too often, test automation fails to live up to its promise. Despite heavy investment in tools, organisations struggle with high maintenance costs, brittle test scripts, and a shortage of skilled talent.
It’s no surprise that up to 70% of test automation projects fail - a pattern we call the Automation Paradox. Instead of reducing effort, many teams find their automation efforts increase complexity and costs.
At Afor, we take a fundamentally different approach.
Our Automation Strategy Engagement is a focused 5-day consulting programme designed to help you cut through the noise and deliver a practical, scalable path forward. We work alongside your teams to diagnose the gaps in your current approach and co-design a roadmap tailored to your applications, environments, and delivery model.
Why Choose Afor?
We combine deep automation engineering with a robust delivery methodology - ROAR (Review, Optimise, Adapt, Report) - to help organisations move past trial-and-error automation and adopt a modern, AI-enhanced approach that works.
Our solution includes:
AI-Enhanced Automation Frameworks
Built using open-source technology and designed for adaptability, our frameworks reduce breakage and eliminate high licensing fees. We explore options within your environment for pragmatic use of AI-Enchanced self-healing tests to lower maintenance burden.
Relational Data Structures
We architect reusable test logic that scales across platforms, applications, and delivery pipelines. Say goodbye to redundant scripting and hello to efficiency.
Engineering-Led Enablement
Afor embeds automation expertise into your Agile teams, upskilling QA professionals and bridging the skill gap. You gain internal capability - not ongoing consulting dependency.
CI/CD & Toolchain Integration
We align automation with your existing development workflows - across both modern cloud-native and legacy systems - making test automation part of the pipeline, not a bolt-on.
