Public sector organizations face distinct, complex technological and testing challenges. Long procurement cycles and modernization initiatives demand stability. Citizens expect digital services that are both reliable and easy to use. Regulators and oversight bodies require precise documentation and airtight security. And behind it all, Salesforce plays a critical role in managing constituent services, programs, and operations.
Meeting these expectations is rarely simple. Manual testing slows projects down, legacy systems complicate integrations, and compliance standards like FedRAMP, FISMA, and GDPR demand precise, auditable QA. It is a tall order for most public sector teams.
The result is a QA puzzle that demands more than traditional testing methods can deliver. Provar makes powerful Salesforce automated testing for government a reality, helping public organizations deliver secure, reliable, and compliant solutions.

Testing Challenges for Public Sector Organizations
Regulatory and Security Standards
Government agencies are held to some of the highest compliance benchmarks in the world. FedRAMP, FISMA, and GDPR require precision and documentation at every stage. Manual testing struggles to validate these standards consistently or generate the audit needed for reviews.
Procurement and Delivery Cycles
Unlike commercial industries that can pivot quickly, public sector projects often span months or years. Releases must be stable and predictable to avoid costly setbacks in long procurement processes. Manual QA increases the risk of late defects and costly rework.
Legacy System Integrations
Many government agencies run Salesforce alongside legacy systems that remain mission-critical. Testing these integrations is complex yet essential to ensure citizen services are not interrupted. Manual testing across disconnected platforms can rarely scale effectively.
Delays in Modernization Programs
Digital transformation is a top priority in government, but QA bottlenecks frequently slow progress. High-maintenance regression testing can slow progress and delay the rollout of new citizen services.
