Original Software Offers a Helping Hand to Manual Testers
A new class of test automation software improves productivity in every testing situation. Implementation is painless and it delivers major benefits that other testing solutions fail to offer
CHICAGO, Feb. 27 -- With today's introduction of TestDrive - Assist, Original Software (www.origsoft.com) continues to redefine software testing, and plans to prove it by showing the world that its 'Crawl, Walk, Run' solution strategy is the only practical methodology to address 100% of testing needs.
TestDrive-Assist is a key element of the 'Crawl' in the 'Crawl, Walk, Run' approach, and offers a totally new concept in testing in that it delivers active support for manual testing in a non-intrusive way, without forcing testers to change the way they work. When manually testing Web-based, GUI, or legacy IBM iSeries green-screen applications, TestDrive-Assist guides you through a list of the steps needed to properly and thoroughly test applications. Then, it monitors and records your progress and documents all of your test results. Since TestDrive-Assist provides a full history of all of the test steps taken, it is much easier to recreate and isolate defects in software, thus speeding the time to resolution. Furthermore, documented test results can serve the growing number of audit and compliance requirements that businesses face. To improve workflow in the IT department, all results can be accessed and viewed by other team members and any problems simply re-created.
A Fast Start to Full Automation
Requiring only minimal training, TestDrive-Assist is an ideal entry-level product for those testers who may not yet need full automation but want some way of capturing their work and findings to improve their time to market.
As comfort or requirement levels grow, you can seamlessly incorporate extra automation by utilizing more of the TestDrive solution offered by Original Software, thus providing a first step on the ladder to full automation.
"TestDrive-Assist offers a significant helping hand to existing manual processes, and testers have seen immediate benefits from its use," says Colin Armitage, CEO of Original Software. "TestDrive-Assist gives powerful tracking functions to testers that are non-intrusive and feel more natural. Developers can correct defects much faster, as the problem can be simply re-created, while the results can eventually be used to build fully automated tests. No one else does this."
