Software Testing Tools

Software Testing Tools - 1 or 2 day seminar

The question today is not "do I automate my software testing" but, rather, "which parts do I automate first". This program will help you make that decision by assisting you in establishing or significantly improving your use of software testing tools. The proper use of tools makes testing easier, more effective, and more productive. This course clearly describes the types of tools available, identifies the leading tool vendors, and dynamically demonstrates key tools. Leverage the experience of over 400 companies as you learn a process for selecting and implementing tools. This course has been referred to as the "Consumer Reports of Software Testing Tools". Learn how to prioritize your needs, evaluate tools, integrate tools into your environment, and measure the resulting lowered cost and improved quality.

YOU WILL LEARN: How to prioritize your auto-mation needs. Ways to evaluate the best tools for your specific requirements. How to integrate test tools into your test process. The 3rd generation of test automation architecture - integrating test design and automation. How to choose the right type of tool to implement first....second....third. Ways to measure the results of tool implementation. Opportunities for using tools early in the product life cycle, thus lowering costs and improving quality.

MAKE TEST AUTOMATION WORK FOR YOU

The Software Development Technologies (SDT) Software Testing Tools Program will help you establish or significantly improve your use of software testing tools throughout the product life cycle. There are a wide variety of tool vendors to choose from and many vendor promises to sort through.

You will learn how to maximize your efficiency at every step of your testing process - not just execution, but also test design, planning, and management. And, rather than depend on guesswork, you will learn how to work through a methodical process to make this decision and then make successive decisions on what next to automate. Leverage the experience of over 400 companies that have automated testing while minimizing risk, leveraging existing resources, increasing productivity, and accelerating deployment.

Representative, full-function tools are dynamically demonstrated using the latest electronic presentation methods. A process for selecting and implementing tools is presented, highlighting the most significant opportunities for automated software testing.

FIND THE BEST TOOL FOR YOUR ENVIRONMENT

Don't be confused by the hundreds of software testing tools available today and the medley of vendor promises. Benefit from evaluations of the leading testing tool vendors in terms of product quality, technical specifications and support, management capabilities and company maturity - boiled down to a "best in breed" testing tools list.

Referred to by the Gartner Group as the "Consumer Reports of Software Testing Tools," SDT focuses on the practical aspects of automating your test process and introduces you to several test tools including demonstrations of key tools. You will leave this class knowing exactly:

• what step to take first in your automation effort
• which type of tool is right for you, and
• the shortlist of the best SW test tools for your unique environment
