OXFORD, ENGLAND, February 21, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Grid-Tools and Parasoft have engaged in a technical partnership to offer a compelling joint solution for SOA testing and web application testing. Grid-Tools Ltd, an Oxford, UK based test data management software company, and Parasoft, a California based SOA testing solutions organization, have come together to launch a 'data driven' repository-based solution for web application testing.
What is 'data driven' SOA testing?
The combined tools offer an integrated approach to managing the data that is fed into and returned from requested and stored responses. Data pools of responses will be managed in the Grid-Tools Datamaker central repository, allowing the results to quickly be checked against expected results. Data requests and results can also be compared over time, offering the ability to quickly identify if anything has changed. Data from the Parasoft solution can be stored in the Datamaker repository, allowing users to freeze the response data; a very important feature when testing multiple SOA requests. The user will be equipped with an enterprise-wide, end-to-end SOA testing solution.
A valuable partnership for web application testing
In response to the new partnership and technical integration, Huw Price, Grid-Tools Managing Director said, "Grid-Tools have welcomed the chance to develop a closer working partnership with Parasoft by launching this new product together. Parasoft's SOA test tool is state-of-the-art. Being able to use its powerful test harness capability allows us to continue our integration with all parts of the testing cycle. SOA testing can be complex, as there are many moving parts. The ability to manage the back-end data in a structured and organized way allows users much greater control over this complex area."
"How can you test with greater impact? You can make your test cases more pertinent, yet malleable to changing business demands," said Wayne Ariola, VP of Strategy for Parasoft Corporation. "Parasoft SOAtest and Grid-Tools deliver an unparalleled solution for ensuring quality in evolving business systems— the combined offering allows development and QA teams to work in concert like never before."
Grid-Tools and Parasoft will be hosting a webinar introducing their joint solution on March 3, 2009, for more information please visit: https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/897548601
