Find and Fix Bugs Earlier with Automated Testing
Automated testing increases the effectiveness and coverage of software testing, leading to fewer bottlenecks in the software delivery pipeline, lower failure rates and higher quality software.
TopazВ® for Total Test can test a mainframe program in two ways:
Virtualized (unit testing): All subprogram calls, data accessed and API calls are virtualized or stubbed out and the program is tested in complete isolation from external dependencies.
Non-virtualized (functional and integration testing): Testing is executed in a real environment with real subprograms and data.
With Topaz for Total Test, developers can:
Automate unit testing, functional testing as well as integration and regression testing
Easily generate tests from within Xpediter
Run unit, functional and integration tests from the same test scenario
