MagRabbit Uses HP Application Lifecycle Management Quality Center

MagRabbit is committed to providing our clients with cost-effective and error-free software application development services. To meet these goals, our team uses the application lifecycle management (ALM) software suite, HP Quality Center, a software quality management product that helps insure a defect-free application for our clients. This article will give you an overview of the HP Quality Center and explain the reason why we use this tool for our client projects.

The HP Quality Center tool provides an excellent framework for testing applications; in fact, it is an end-to-end management infrastructure with the ability to integrate every activity related to testing. Furthermore, the HP Quality Center allows access for the MagRabbit Team to testing material anytime and anywhere via a browser interface and provides manual testing solutions throughout the entire testing process. Along with manual testing, the HP Quality Center integrates well with many other automated testing tools, reducing our team’s workload and enhancing productivity.

The HP Quality Center includes components for requirement management, quality planning, software testing management, business process testing, defect management and release & cycle management, connecting all the activities of our MagRabbit development teams, testing teams, business analysts and project managers. The HP Quality Center gives us a repeatable process for gathering requirements and allows linking requirements to test plans. Instead of utilizing many different tools for scheduling, executing or controlling the testing procedure, now all can be done by using only one tool, the HP Quality Center. This tool can also manage testing requirements based on business process needs and business risks, prioritizing testing as needed. In addition, the HP Quality Center has many other great functions such as results analyzing and reporting capacity integrated with several external reporting tools. Thanks to consistent and repeatable processes, defects and issues are completely resolved, ensuring application quality to meet our clients’ expectations.

The latest release of HP Quality Center version 11.5 includes new features such as Business Views, PPT (Project Planning & Tracking) and Lab Management. Business Views helps to build and generate graphs as well as display from simple to complex project data, while the PPT feature allows tracking the application readiness by defining goals for tasks related to the release of an application. Last but not least, Lab Management provides QA a way to plan test executions and enables us to run tests on testing hosts over a firewall ensuring the security of communications with testing hosts.

For all the benefits HP Quality Center provides, the MagRabbit team relies on its testing management systems to provide our clients with the highest quality applications on time and on budget.
