Customer-facing mobile, web, and desktop experiences are critically important pillars of the customer journey. Experitest enhances the Digital.ai Value Stream Platform with secure, integrated quality capabilities that reduce risk, enabling enterprises to provide their customers satisfying, error-free experiences across all devices and browsers. Experitest’s continuous quality solutions seamlessly integrate with best-in-class tools throughout the DevOps pipeline to allow enterprises to rapidly deliver highly protected, quality applications at-speed and at-scale.
