The Team Challenge

Group of PeopleToday’s test organizations spend the greater part of their work day involved in collaborative tasks. They share information, they work together in teams, and they manage projects. It can be a challenge to collaborate effectively if you do not have tools to easily communicate, share information, and coordinate projects details and deadlines among a large group of people.

The Team Solution

With Spirent iTest Team Server (iTS), you get your testing done more efficiently because iTS provides organizations with a platform for sharing information and working together in teams. iTS gathers, systematizes, and graphically displays analytics test data from multiple sources. This promotes confident and informed decisions, while giving test leaders commanding visibility into test coverage, group progress, project risk analysis, and product release readiness. Executives, managers, and test leads can view top-level rolled up summaries or drill all the way down to individual test reports.

The “one touch” test documentation capability fosters rigorous test plan documentation and seamless asset sharing between testing groups. Because a Spirent iTS test plan is a precise “as tested” document that lists the verbatim commands and DUT responses, it can be followed exactly by any other tester or by a developer seeking to reproduce an issue.

The collaboration platform at the heart of Spirent’s test automation solution

The integrated processes, tools, and project artifacts that make up iTS optimize the process of authoring and performing tests in teams. iTS is both a collection of features shared by the members of a project team that enables them to collaborate and work together more effectively and a platform specifically architected for integration and extensibility.

What is iTest Team Server?

ComplementaryComplementary

iTS is a new, server-based, software-only companion to iTest. It forms a natural extension to the iTest platform by harvesting existing iTest data for detailed analysis, enabling test leaders to make more informed release-based decisions. It also offers a more seamless experience for scheduling and executing tests authored with iTest.

Collaborative

Collaborative

iTS enables teams to work more effectively, by sharing and monitoring test assets, test results, progress assessments, and automation progress; all done very easily and naturally. This enables faster defect resolution and quicker and more detailed root-cause identification.

Customizable

Customizable

From the very beginning, iTS has been specifically architected for integration and extensibility. Not only can you customize elements to suit your environment and project needs, but partners and other vendors can also customize elements of iTS and complement it with new functionality to match organization’s testing workflow.

Benefits

Drive Predictability & Make Real-time Decisions

iTest Team Server provides the information needed to make informed, real-time decisions on test coverage, automation progress, test execution schedules, manual test results, and more—in turn helping project teams to deliver on time and on budget, and to ensure that projects meet all requirements. Project managers and Test leads can be ready for team meetings in minutes instead of hours, saving everyone the effort of having to manually communicate status, and can answer questions posed by external stakeholders and upper management on-the-fly.

Get summary and detailed visibility

By bringing all test artifacts, data, and status together in one place, iTest Team Server enables more effective team communication and collaboration while providing both summary and detailed visibility into the QA environment. Drill-down reporting makes it easy to identify failure areas, drastically reducing the bug fix cycle.

Use Familiar Tools

iTest Team Server helps reduce adoption costs by integrating with the applications that people already know and use. Team members continue to use the tools that are most productive and do not have to learn another layer of tools.

Include manual.testing results during decisions

iTest Team Server includes results from interactive, collaborative, and self-documenting manual tests as part of the overall data for more informed and accurate decision making.

Features

Collaborative Manual Testing—Include manual testing results in decisions

iTS automates the documentation and journaling of manual test activities and test results. The results of all manual tests performed by your entire team are fully documented, logged and integrated into the system. This generates annotated and consolidated reports for the entire team which can be reused by future testers or developers attempting to debug software. It also enables live cross-team and interactive manual testing.

4 Step processHow it works: the 4 step process

  1. No change to the manual testing process. Testers continue to use their favorite tool for testing.
  2. All interactions with devices will be automatically captured and stored into a centralized repository.
  3. Tester can interact with the server during test execution to add comments, make annotations, and mark pass/fail status.
  4. Testers can interact with each other to perform cross-testing and interactive debugging.

 

Dashboards—Decision making tools for leaders

iTest Team Server DashboardiTS provides in-depth visibility into the QA environment with the Web-based Dashboard and Test Reporting modules. Make informed decisions about group and activity progress, release readiness, and test coverage using:

  • Authoring Reports that track test development activity across teams
  • Execution Reports that track test execution activity and failures
  • Quality Metrics that track test results and automation progress

 

Scheduling—Expose test execution cycles on dashboard

iTest Team Server DashboardiTS enables “lights out” regression testing with the Test Suite Management and Scheduling & Execution modules—a real-time window on the progress of individual test runs or the overall test execution cycle.

  • Track, schedule, and execute tests on physical and virtual lab assets
  • Distribute execution of tests across resources in the lab
  • Schedule execution of tests directly from within the iTest GUI
