  360Logica Customer ServiceSolution Case Study on Selenium PHP Framework Development and QA Services Technical Situation The key technical challenge was establishing a Selenium data driven framework using configuration property file. The scripting language to be used was PHP and PHPUnit was selected as the preferred execution tool. The Agiliron SaaS e- commerce solution delivery model was based on cloud technology, which necessitated a software testing approach com- pletely different from traditional way of testing. Concurrent with multiple functions covering both front and back end, the Selenium automation testing framework was required to take cognizance of convenience of end users and the large-scale convergence of delivery models for accounting, CRM, content management, HR, enterprise planning, and service desk applications that are part and parcel of every business. BENEFITS 360Logica Solution 360Logica successfully implemented a full-fledged Sele- nium-PHP framework for Agiliron. It was data driven and completely in sync with their technology platform.
