IT major Infosys on Monday said that it has signed a three-year agreement with TOMS Shoes to become its worldwide partner to maintain and develop its digital platform.

The agreement will enable TOMS to streamline the management of its web-based properties and introduce automation technologies to lower overall support and development costs.

“The original concept of TOMS Shoes is an inspiration, which makes us proud to be their partner. As we help them mature into a multi-channel global operation, we will use our technology skills and our experience with the world’s leading retailers and online commerce players to create a compelling experience for them. More importantly, it gives us great satisfaction to know that this partnership will help TOMS continue its mission of helping the underprivileged across the world – whether by giving brand new shoes to children in need or by creating sustainable water systems,” Madhu Janardan, vice-president, regional lead of retail, consumer goods and logistics, Infosys said.

Under the agreement, Infosys will introduce automation solutions to the testing environment, targeting automation of 70 per cent of the regression testing suite for TOMS digital operations using Infosys Web Test Automation Framework.

Infosys will also provide TOMS with information technology support in all six countries in which it currently operates – US, Canada, Germany, UK, France and Netherlands.
