Three New TestArchitectTM Products

LogiGear has expanded its TestArchitect product line with the introduction of three new TestArchitect Editions— Professional, Mobile Plus and Enterprise.

The Professional Edition is an economical automation solution for Windows-based applications. Mobile Plus offers Windows-based application plus mobile testing, and Enterprise includes all Windows, web, cloud and mobile testing capability. Mobile Plus and Enterprise support iOS and Android phones and tablets, with both web and hybrid app testing capability.

The Enterprise Edition includes name refactoring to reduce test case maintenance by making it possible to automatically update test case suites whenever a test entity name is changed.

Most Software Development Heads Fail to Meet Deadlines

Almost three-quarters (71 percent) of UK software development heads say conventional approaches to software development and testing means new customer-facing applications are delayed.

CA Technologies questioned 301 in-house software development managers in enterprises across the UK, France and Germany. More than half (56 percent) of UK developers reported that their IT department’s reputation had been tarnished because of issues relating to “out-dated” application development and testing methods.

While 59 percent of UK respondents cited quality and time-to-market on integration testing as major challenges, it was lower (48 percent) across all three countries. In the UK, 41 percent had issues with performance testing compared to 32 percent overall.
