iTest® Enterprise enables expert testers and automation teams to create fully automated test cases with pass/fail criteria and powerful abstraction technology. These sophisticated test cases can be run against numerous testbeds, quickly updated for design changes, and immediately used for "lights out" regression testing at the end of the automation assembly line.

Why iTest Enterprise

Automation engineers face many challenges: creating automated test scripts using various languages; automating the most difficult test cases; and building and maintaining shared test libraries, tools, and infrastructure-without the aid of commercially supported tools. iTest Enterprise provides the tools automation engineers need to make their jobs easier and to make automation a reality.

iTest Enterprise represents the most extensive and feature-rich iTest solution. It provides all the functionality of iTest Team, plus patented abstraction technology and other unique features to optimize automation at every stage of testing. With iTest Enterprise, engineers can:

• Configure and orchestrate system testing with numerous devices and traffic generators to create an automated system testing solution
• Easily create and edit response maps and other shared test assets
• Render test cases into other scripting languages, such as Tcl, for easier integration into existing infrastructures
• Use powerful abstraction techniques to update hundreds of test cases in minutes
• Create sophisticated test cases that include robust analysis and pass/fail criteria
• Utilize advanced analysis and conditional logic for complex branching and diagnostic test cases
• Create test cases for products or applications requiring CLI, SNMP, Web, Java Swing, Serial Port, or Tcl
• Connect to devices; start setup, configuration, or tear down; or launch commonly used sets of actions with a single mouse click
• Automatically generate comprehensive documentation for every run, providing proof of testing and clear information for bug reports and issue resolution
• Create basic test cases from captured steps and/or use shared procedure libraries
• Annotate test cases with messages that will automatically be added to test reports
• Add looping constructs to help automate repetitive tasks

The last mile of the automation assembly line

As the most comprehensive iTest edition, iTest Enterprise can tackle every stage of the automation assembly line-from the beginning to the last mile. Using iTest Enterprise, automation engineers can build fully automated test cases or layer on necessary pass/fail criteria or abstractions to test cases created with iTest Personal or iTest Team. Companies with advanced processes can leverage assets created with iTest Enterprise and "share it forward" in the process, so test cases built with iTest Personal and iTest Team (at the beginning of the assembly line) are already automated and abstracted.
