Software development is a complex project fraught with schedule tradeoffs and compromises. The result? Missed launch deadlines or a reduction in features or quality in order to meet release dates. Worksoft solutions enable you to bring software applications to market 60% faster and with fewer problems, than traditional automation record/playback/scripting automation technologies, creating a real competitive advantage for your company.

Worksoft’s innovative solutions for software testing automation require no programming. This enables testing to start earlier in the development lifecycle, even before the code is complete. No programming means no recording, no test debugging and easier maintenance of test plans and test cases. The approach empowers all members of the product delivery process to contribute to the testing, including QA, developers, architects and subject matter experts such as business analysts.

The presentation will show you how a commercial automation framework can significantly shorten your testing cycles, so that your organization can focus on delivering higher quality software in a shorter timeframe.
