Simplifying feature testing requirements

As a test engineer, you must be able to perform a wide array of tests-from feature testing to system testing-while under intense deadline pressure. But verifying the features, performance, and stability of new product releases can be complicated and time-consuming. Up to 80 percent of testing is done manually, including:

• Creating test plans
• Configuring and setting up devices or testbeds
• Executing steps
• Analyzing responses
• Creating reports (passed or defect)

How will Fanfare solutions help me do my job better and faster?

iTest® enables test engineers to automate core testing activities-and improve communication with developers and automation engineers.

With iTest you gain a single solution for functional, performance, load, and stress testing of systems and equipment. Plus, the functionality needed to develop, document, execute, and automate sophisticated tests in a minimum amount of time.

Which iTest edition is right for me?

iTest Personal enables device testers to create repeatable test cases that are fully documented. Its powerful yet easy-to-use technology provides an automated alternative to time-consuming manual tests and scripting.

iTest Team enables seasoned feature testers and engineers with scripting experience to build fully automated test cases with pass/fail criteria, quickly and easily. These robust, easy-to-read, and transferable test cases can be used by other QA teams to speed up replication, defect resolution, and regression testing.

Highlights

• Quickly create tests, execute them, and report the results-without having to rely on manual testing and scripting
• Easily access historical test information (e.g., actions, commands, tests, and configurations) collected months ago-and replay with a mouse click
• Reproduce sophisticated testbed and device under test (DUT) configurations in seconds and execute tests with a single mouse click
• Automatically document all testing in clear, detailed reports, enabling other teams to easily reproduce bugs and verify fixes
• Use one tool to test multiple test cases, protocols, and applications-from command line interfaces and Web applications to Tcl APIs, SNMP, and even custom scripts
• Free up time to focus on real-world use scenarios, corner cases, and overall test strategies
• Edit, execute, and debug all captured testing information
• Employ sophisticated analysis rules to easily add conditional structures and automated pass-fail criteria to test cases
• Manage and drive other test devices, such as Ixia, Spirent, and Agilent
