IMPLEMENTATION & GO-LIVE

Go-live with confidence.

Expand coverage. Reduce go-live risk.

Implementations demand confidence across thousands of interconnected scenarios from business processes and configuration to security roles, eligibility rules, and integrations. ilumn uses AI to generate and execute this coverage at scale, reducing manual effort and giving teams a faster, more efficient path towards go-live readiness.

Non-Technical Alignment

Natural language test scripts enable HR and Finance teams to validate results effortlessly.

Business stakeholder sign-off

Plain-English scenarios let HR, Finance and Operations review and approve without technical knowledge.

Defect-free go-live focus

Catch critical defects in Sandbox before Production, with audit-ready evidence for sign-off.

Reusable testing

Create test scenarios once, then schedule and execute them in parallel across tenants and phases from functional and integration testing to UAT and regression without rebuilding your test coverage each time.

Accelerate UAT. Expand coverage. Reduce go-live risk.

Agentic test design and execution

From Sandbox/Preview impact analysis to regression and evidence, validation adapts to your tenant.

Change impact analysis

See exactly which test areas a release or config change affects, and run targeted regression instead of blanket retesting.

Compliance & audit evidence

Every run is logged with timestamps, user roles and outcomes.

INTEGRATION VALIDATION

Know your integrations work before Production.

Automated end-to-end testing across Core Connectors, EIB, Studio and Orchestration.

Core Connector (CCW)

Validate inbound/outbound payloads, field mappings and error handling, and catch integration drift early.

EIB

Test imports and exports end-to-end: transformations, file formats, conditional logic and error scenarios.

Workday Studio

Run full Studio flows with live test data to verify orchestration logic, document assembly, conditional routing and downstream behaviour.

Orchestration & custom APIs

Validate API calls, XSLT transformations and data integrity, including third-party responses and exception handling.

Reliable integrations. Earlier defect detection. Lower production risk.

OPERATIONS · BP TESTING

Let operations teams build, test and govern BPs without a developer.

Natural-language BP creation

Implementations involve hundreds of business processes, security roles and integrations, which is hard to cover by hand. ilumn generates UAT scenarios directly from your Workday configuration.

End-to-end hire-to-retire

Parallel execution across Sandbox and Preview can compress 8–12 week UAT programmes to under 3 weeks.*

Security & access governance

Plain-English scenarios let HR, Finance and Operations review and approve without technical knowledge.

Non-technical self-service

Catch critical defects in Sandbox before Production, with audit-ready evidence for sign-off.
