Prudentia – Model-based testing tool, which automatically generates software testing procedures using models of system requirements. 

Enterprises, no matter how many are looking to work in an agile environment, are finding it difficult to adopt agile methodologies and implement end-to-end testing across all enterprise systems. 

Prudentia is Cigniti’s model-based testing tool that automatically generates software testing procedures using models of system requirements and behavior. Prudentia leverages Cigniti’s globally patented algorithm to generate intelligent test scenarios. 

CESA – Customer Experience Sentiment Analyzer (CESA) 

Cigniti’s Customer Experience Analysis identifies and categorizes feedback expressed by end-users to determine (objective and subjective) usability from a product and service quality perspective. The primary source of information is from app store reviews, Twitter and Facebook conversations. The analysis will help qualify topics, sentiment, feature requests, what works, what doesn’t work, quality issues, and regression issues from the conversations. 

Here’s how we approach customer experience analysis: 

• Understand the user applications 
• Identify the nature and source of downloads 
• Analyze the ratings, reviews, conversations, and communications across social media 
• Profile the users under defined segments 
• Create region-specific reports 
• Share downloadable links
