Cut the “testing tax” in banking

In banking, software change is never routine. Real-time payments, in-flight core modernization, and unrelenting regulatory scrutiny mean a defect isn’t just a bug, it’s an outage, an audit finding, or a hit to customer trust. Yet most institutions still run testing that consumes up to 40% of development cost. That’s the “testing tax,” and it compounds with every release.

Agentic, AI-powered testing is rewriting that equation, and the banks moving first are pulling ahead on speed, compliance posture, and operational risk all at once.

Inside, you’ll find:

• The three testing challenges holding banks back: evidence-ready testing under regulatory scrutiny, test data constraints, and modernization velocity without regression risk

• A side-by-side look at traditional automation versus agentic testing across the priorities CIOs care about

• What to look for in a modern testing platform, from AI-powered test creation to elastic execution and CI/CD-grade governance

• Results from Finance of America (67% faster test execution, 338 hours saved) and HDI (92% automation rate, 600 person-days saved)

Modernizing QA used to mean choosing between speed and control. It no longer does.
