TestDirector for Quality Center Features & Benefits

Supports the Entire Testing Process

TestDirector for Quality Center incorporates all aspects of the testing process— requirements management, planning, scheduling, running tests, issue management and project status analysis—into a single browser-based application.

Provides Anytime, Anywhere Access to Testing Assets

Using TestDirector's Web interface, testers, developers and business analysts can participate in and contribute to the testing process by collaborating across geographic and organizational boundaries.

Provides Traceability Throughout the Testing Process

TestDirector links requirements to test cases, and test cases to issues, to ensure traceability throughout the testing cycle. When requirement changes or the defect is fixed, the tester is notified of the change.

Integrates with Third-Party Applications

Whether an individual uses an industry standard configuration management solution, Microsoft Office or a homegrown defect management tool, any application can be integrated into TestDirector. Through the open API, TestDirector preserves the users’ investment in their existing solutions and enables them to create an end-to-end lifecycle-management solution.

Manages Manual and Automated Tests

TestDirector stores and runs both manual and automated tests, and can help jumpstart a user’s automation project by converting manual tests to automated test scripts.

Accelerates Testing Cycles

TestDirector's TestLab manager accelerates the test execution cycles by scheduling and running tests automatically—unattended, even overnight. The results are reported into TestDirector’s central repository, creating an accurate audit trail for analysis.

Facilitates Consistent and Repetitive Testing Process

By providing a central repository for all testing assets, TestDirector facilitates the adoption of a more consistent testing process, which can be repeated throughout the application lifecycle or shared across multiple applications or lines of business (LOB).

Provides Analysis and Decision Support Tools

TestDirector's integrated graphs and reports help analyze application readiness at any point in the testing process. Using information about requirements coverage, planning progress, run schedules or defect statistics, managers are able to make informed decisions on whether the application is ready to go live.
