Client Overview

A leading utilities organization managing large-scale infrastructure relied heavily on ArcGIS-powered field inspection workflows across multiple applications and environments.

A large utility managing complex field inspection workflows across multiple ArcGIS applications struggled to maintain speed and reliability in its release cycles.


Business Challenge

The client faced significant inefficiencies in their GIS testing and validation processes:

  • Manual QA validation across multiple GIS applications
  • Field workflows spanning web, mobile, and offline environments
  • Complex validation requirements for apps like Field Maps and Survey123
  • Slow release cycles due to repetitive manual testing
  • Increased risk of errors in critical inspection workflows

Epikso Solution

Epikso designed and implemented a Unified GIS QA Automation Framework to streamline validation and improve reliability.

Key solution components:
  • Automated validation across web, iOS, and offline field workflows
  • End-to-end testing of UI workflows, spatial logic, and backend feature layers
  • Seamless validation across ArcGIS applications including Field Maps, Survey123, and ArcGIS Online
  • Scalable automation pipeline supporting cross-platform testing
