Helping universities & colleges test Workday the Smart way since 2014

Improve your institution's Workday testing with this collection of resources from the experts

We understand that every academic institution is different, and this is reflected in the complex Workday configurations that manage everything from student enrolment, data and grants to traditional HR and finance functions.

That’s why the only sure-proof way for universities and colleges to protect their Workday investment and ensure seamless operations while reacting to change is to test regularly and thoroughly. But that’s easier said than when budgets are tightening, teams are stretched, and rapid change calls for rapid assurance. We’re here to help.

Since launching Smart Test in 2014, our market leading, Workday approved automated testing solution has supported institutions to worry less about Workday testing and focus more on growth, attracting and retaining talented staff, as well as nurturing student populations to thrive.

Here is a handpicked selection of the things we’ve learned in that time, that we hope will help guide your teams to Workday testing success.
