IFS users have long needed a reliable, automated way to test key business processes, especially during system updates or service transitions. Keeping things running smoothly after an update is critical, but most testing tools haven’t delivered.
After extensive product research, we found the common issues with existing tools:
Some only supported basic UI testing.
Others couldn’t handle large-scale data imports.
One promising tool required complex scripting, making it too time-consuming and impractical for everyday use.
That’s why we built Platned Mahara: a solution specifically designed for testing IFS Cloud™. It gives you full control over data migration and simplifies testing at every stage.
With Mahara, your functional leads can manage data migrations independently: no technical skills needed. Large data sets can be easily moved to IFS Cloud™ using the REST API interface, with no need to directly access the database. The tool automatically generates a template you fill in with your data, then upload: quick, simple, and effective.

Why go with Platned Mahara?
Upgrades and service updates often become a headache for many businesses. They’re delayed or skipped entirely because manual testing takes too much time and effort. Traditional testing tools don’t connect well with IFS Cloud™, leading to test cycles that can drag on for 10–12 hours.

It’s testing made easy for non-technical users. Here’s how it works:
Record your test cases. Mahara creates the test data templates and scripts automatically.
Fill in the templates with your test data.
