Test Automation for Healthcare

Greater reliability in releases, less validation stress: With Drvless, teams automate clinic- and product-related workflows via the visible interface—even in isolated environments with strict security requirements. This allows end-to-end processes to be tested in a repeatable manner without having to delve deep into systems.

Challenges in Healthcare

In healthcare, software changes are rarely “just UI”: They affect documentation, traceability, and often processes directly related to patients or regulated products. At the same time, heterogeneous landscapes (e.g., HIS, LIS, portals, device workstations) are subject to strict security requirements and hard-to-access environments. This makes end-to-end testing and repeatable test verification time-consuming—especially when many processes remain manual.

Regulated processes & audit trails

Tests must be traceable, repeatable and documentable – especially before updates close to production.

Isolated IT & security requirements

Source code access, agent installations, or deep integrations are often not possible – this is precisely where many classic approaches fail.

System and device diversity

Portals, desktop applications, legacy systems and device interfaces must work together; individual UI breaks can stop entire process chains.

Our solution for regulated environments

Drvless is GUI-based: Everything visible to the human eye can be controlled and tested. This makes Drvless more robust against GUI changes and enables automation even without access to backend code.

No installation on the system under Automation

Drvless requires no installation on the system under test (SUA). You can, for example, connect a CCDevice or run CCSoftware to start it – helpful for complying with security restrictions.

Technology and platform independent

Drvless runs unchanged on Microsoft Windows, macOS, Unix, etc. – regardless of the technology of the system being tested.

Automation without programming knowledge

Test cases can be created via drag-and-drop in a visual editor or written in natural language and converted into Drvless Graphical Language – this way, specialist departments and QA can also help with automation.

More stable during UI changes

Drvless is oriented towards the visible user interface, just like a user would be. This means tests need to be adjusted less often when masks, layouts, or HTML details change.

What you see is what you test – and that’s perfectly sufficient.

Typical Use Cases

With Drvless you can, among other things:

Test patient/case setup and administrative workflows end-to-end (admission → documentation → discharge)
Automated checks of form and document processes (e.g., generated PDFs, mandatory fields, plausibility checks)
Verify role and rights concepts via user interface flows
Automated execution of recurring regressions before releases and hotfixes
Securing third-party integrations in real-world UI workflows (portals, device workstations)

Driveless offers, among other things, the following advantages:

Increased test coverage with the same team – especially for end-to-end workflows
Reduced risk through consistent testing before near-production deployments
Improved repeatability and faster regression in validation-like environments
Automation even in isolated environments, because Drvless requires no installation on the System Under Automation (SUA).
Less dependence on developers, as Drvless does not require backend code access and tests "like a human" via the visible interface.
Across platforms and devices: the same automation scenario covers desktop, mobile, and tablet applications.
