Orcanos Free Testing tools for Test management

QPack software testing tools for test management

QPack Testing-Suite for Software Testing Overview

QPack Software testing tool of Orcanos assist you in test management as integral part of your application lifecycle management.

Orcanos software testing tools work with QPack central ALM system, allowing for more efficient test management, sharing of project data, tracking, and monitoring of development activities.  QPack's test management tool is designed for both hardware and software testing.

 

 

Cover Requirements With Testing-Suite - Test Plan

With QPack's software testing tools, the test planning phase begins straight away, guaranteeing automatic requirements traceability.

 

QPack Test Management - Coverage

 

 

QPack Unique Versions Management

All test management information is saved in QPack central repository, within specific product/project version. Creating new versions doesn’t require data duplication – QPack versions management mechanism manages it for you, creating views and manage only the delta between versions, allows you both better tracking of version changes and reduce data duplication, all while ensuring the integrity of the tests based on the specific release for which they were designed.

 

 

QPack Testing-Suite – Test Parameters

QPack's software testing tool for test management also administers test parameters so that it can support complex testing environments. Rather than using multiple tests scripts and complex Excels sheets during the test management, QPack leverages the usage of parameters in the Testing Life cycle, along with test run result traceability and analysis. These features work together to reduce the work invested on the manual software testing process, and encourages the testers work with more focus.  

Whenever you need to test several configurations, using QPack Testing-Suite parameters – you can write a test case only once and QPack creates and manages all tests scenarios for you. So, whether you have multiple operating systems, browsers, or other internal factors and complex configurations that need testing, QPack's software testing tools for test management can handle your unique situation saving the resources invested during the manual software test management process.

 


Test Management - Testing Work plan
The tests in QPack's software testing tools can be divided into several stages according to project needs. Each tests collection can be assigned to a group of testers or a single tester. The reports of the defects found during the test cycles make it possible to control the quality of the products and they become a source of essential information for the planning of the subsequent versions.

   

 

Test management - Test Execution (test run)
QPack test management tool provides the test execution module for manual test execution. Test results are saved, and can be viewed at any point. Your saved test results may be used in the analysis tools of QPack for ongoing decision making. The tracking tools of QPack testing tools contain the test execution filter, release manager, coverage matrix and more. Using QPack testing tools in the testing lifecycle, users can report defects directly from tests, using the integrated bug tracking tool, with each defect linked directly to the requirement, thus enabling managers to view sensitive areas in the product.

 

 

Test management - run tests

 

 

 

Test management - Test Tracking and Reports
The reports and graphs generated by QPack software testing tools  make it possible for the QA managers to define and control the test plans for the manual software testing in order to improve the quality of the finished product. The definition phase of the test plan in the test management is completely integrated into requirements definition and development activities.

 

 

 

QPack Software Testing Tools for Test management - Summary:


• Manage test parameters for complex testing environments
• Create tests cases directly from requirements
• Report defects from test runs
• Use QPack versions mechanism to manage test delta between product versions
• Query test results by requirements, versions, test cycles and more

 

 

What is Test Management

Test management organizes and controls the necessary artifacts of the testing process.Test management includes the following artifacts:

1.     Plan tests scenarios – create test cases according to the project requirements

2.     Execute tests in order to verify product functionality

3.     Report defects on test failure

4.     Analytics for test coverage, defects and test run status 

 

  

Testing Tools for Test management Benefits

Using testing tools for the test management automates these activities and allows better control of test management progress.

The testing tools for test management usually come with a central repository that manages all test management data, thus provides more accurate analytics.

During the test management, the user needs to coop with the following challenges: what to test, where to test, how to test, when to test. Using software testing tools can help the user take decision during the test management process.
