Supports the Entire Testing Process
TestDirector
incorporates all aspects of the testing process— requirements
management, planning, scheduling, running tests, issue management and
project status analysis—into a single browser-based application.
Provides Anytime, Anywhere Access to Testing Assets
Using
TestDirector's Web interface, testers, developers and business analysts
can participate in and contribute to the testing process by
collaborating across geographic and organizational boundaries.
Provides Traceability Throughout the Testing Process
TestDirector
links requirements to test cases, and test cases to issues, to ensure
traceability throughout the testing cycle. When requirement changes or
the defect is fixed, the tester is notified of the change.
Integrates with Third-Party Applications
Whether
an individual uses an industry standard configuration management
solution, Microsoft Office or a homegrown defect management tool, any
application can be integrated into TestDirector. Through the open API,
TestDirector preserves the users’ investment in their existing
solutions and enables them to create an end-to-end lifecycle-management
solution.
Manages Manual and Automated Tests
TestDirector
stores and runs both manual and automated tests, and can help jumpstart
a user’s automation project by converting manual tests to automated
test scripts.
Accelerates Testing Cycles
TestDirector's
TestLab manager accelerates the test execution cycles by scheduling and
running tests automatically—unattended, even overnight. The results are
reported into TestDirector’s central repository, creating an accurate
audit trail for analysis.
Facilitates Consistent and Repetitive Testing Process
By
providing a central repository for all testing assets, TestDirector
facilitates the adoption of a more consistent testing process, which
can be repeated throughout the application lifecycle or shared across
multiple applications or lines of business (LOB).
Provides Analysis and Decision Support Tools
TestDirector's
integrated graphs and reports help analyze application readiness at any
point in the testing process. Using information about requirements coverage,
planning progress, run schedules or defect statistics, managers are able
to make informed decisions on whether the application is ready to go live.
