A new software package enables development teams to automate all test activities, shorten test times, and generate real-time metrics on release readiness. The VectorCAST/QA from Vector Software integrates with an organisation’s existing build system and test infrastructure to collect key metrics such as code complexity, frequency of code changes, test case status, and code coverage information.

No changes to the existing workflow or tools are required. Using data gathered from the build system and from monitoring system test activities, VectorCAST/QA identifies correlations between tests and code. As the code changes, it automatically computes the minimum set of tests required to provide complete testing of the changes.

“Much of business success is driven by actionable intelligence derived from accurate and up-to-date data,” commented John Paliotta, chief technology officer at Vector Software. “VectorCAST/QA provides development and QA engineers a single point of control for test activities as well as a wealth of data that can be used to make quality improvement and release decisions.”

Additional capabilities of VectorCAST/QA include better test collaboration which allows independent groups to share test cases and results. Test cases can be executed without users needing to learn new tools or processes. Connectors are configured once for each type of testing and then leveraged for continuous testing.

Real-time quality metrics provide intelligence data on tests run vs. tests needed, release readiness, risk areas, and resource allocation.
