Unify isolated software quality teams.

Before SpiraTeam, MiTek’s software groups operated in isolation with disparate and inefficient test-management toolsets. That created inconsistencies in test-case development and planning and made it difficult to unify software quality efforts.

Meet MiTek and Coveros.

MiTek empowers customers worldwide to improve the way they design, make, and build. Coveros, an Inflectra Platinum Partner, supported MiTek in configuring and implementing SpiraTeam across the organization.

Coveros emphasized a balance between tool adoption and effective customization, aligned to processes, people, and organizational structure.

A unified testing hub integrated with Azure DevOps.

SpiraTeam enabled MiTek to unify manual and automated test cases. Coveros configured the platform to meet MiTek’s business requirements and integrate with Azure DevOps plus Product Quality and Health Dashboards used for reporting.

MiTek’s team of 11 evaluated multiple test-management platforms and selected SpiraTeam for ease of use, single sign-on security, and versatility in test cases.

The new approach supports unified quality activities across multiple applications developed and delivered to MiTek customers.

Unified reporting

Azure DevOps and Product Quality and Health Dashboard integrations provide a common reporting hub.

Scale

The implementation supports 80 users with 50 licenses.

Business team joining hands over a project table
With teams unified, MiTek can collaborate across products and quality disciplines.

Cross-functional collaboration is now possible.

SpiraTeam became the integral hub for test and quality activities and management: triggering tests, tracking results, maintaining history, managing repositories for every product, and keeping everything in a unified place.

We see Spira as the integral hub of test and quality activities and management. It really is the place where we can trigger tests, track test results, get history, manage all of our tests, repositories for every product, and again, in a unified place. This would not have been possible without the support, coaching, and collaboration of Coveros. The Coveros team listened, understood our needs, and deployed the solution in the right way.
