Mercury Quality Center, the centralized quality solution (formerly TestDirector), can help you organize and control the testing process.

QuickTest integrates with Quality Center, the Mercury centralized quality solution. Quality Center helps you maintain a project of all kinds of tests (such as QuickTest tests, business process tests, manual tests, tests created using other Mercury products, and so forth) that cover all aspects of your application's functionality. Each test in your project is designed to fulfill a specified testing requirement of your application. To meet the goals of a project, you organize the tests in your project into unique groups.

Quality Center provides an intuitive and efficient method for scheduling and running tests, collecting results, analyzing the results, and managing test versions. It also features a system for tracking defects, enabling you to monitor defects closely from initial detection until resolution.

A Quality Center project is a database for collecting and storing data relevant to a testing process. For QuickTest to access a Quality Center project, you must connect to the local or remote Web server where Quality Center is installed. When QuickTest is connected to Quality Center, you can create tests and save them in your Quality Center project. After you run your tests, you can view the results in Quality Center.
