Microsoft Visual Studio Team System is an integrated Application Life-cycle Management (ALM) solution comprising tools, processes and guidance to help everyone on the team improve their skills and work more effectively together. Across the application lifecycle, poor software quality is a serious challenge that plagues software developers, testers and business stake holders. While applications get more complex, distributed and richer, the level of testing complexity is significantly increasing but the generalist testers are continuing to use manual testing methods to complete 80-90% of testing efforts often leading to low quality, non-reproducible bugs. These bugs often make it into production, causing significant pain to the business or directly impacting the success of a project. Microsoft Visual Studio Team System Test Edition is a fully integrated, simple and extensible testing solution that empowers teams to effectively drive tighter developer tester interaction aligns QA efforts across application lifecycle and creates highly efficient and effective QA organizations.

SMARTESTING, a French software editor, proposes a patented solution to boost the industrialization of the functional testing activity. SMARTESTING solution addresses the needs of companies for which quality software is strategic to their business and which have therefore built up dedicated “test competence centres“ or “test factories”.
SMARTESTING™ allows these companies to reduce their risks by:
- automating the production of their functional test assets (test cases, test plans, executable test scripts, coverage matrix)
- implementing requirements-based testing to ensure the compliance of the developed application with the functional requirements
- enabling traceability and repeatability to the qualification process
SMARTESTING has partnered with the main actors of the test market to integrate its solution with their products. Smartesting™ for instance publishes the functional test asset for HP-Mercury tool suite. SMARTESTING™ brings an innovative approach and a significant differentiator compared to the conventional and manual approach of developing the test asset:
- the use of functional modelling to “solidify” functional specifications and requirements definition
- the automatic test generation for an objective test design process and an optimized test coverage
- the production of executable test scripts to dramatically raise the level of test automation
SMARTESTING partners with QUALITREE, Bangalore for implementation support services for the Indian market.
