TestBench

Intelligent Database Management & Verification

"Over the past 12 months, TestBench from Original Software has conservatively saved Cargill Global Financial Solutions more than $270,000."

The all important data aspects of application testing can be included in an effective testing strategy. Testing on live data is now a thing of the past and you can be confident your testing processes will be compliant with all your regulatory controls.

TestBench addresses those essential requirements for software testers with its ability to extract data for test environments, scramble sensitive data and provide a massive time saving with its database 'undo' functionality.

In short, TestBench is a class-leading, totally comprehensive, proven test data management and verification solution.


Total Application Quality for SQL Server, Oracle and System i

Traditionally, software test automation tools concentrate on testing only what the eye can see. We believe this strategy - looking for defects in only one area - to be an unacceptable compromise. We take a more holistic approach that embraces this visual layer but is equally rigorous in examining the underlying activity in the database. TestBench integrates with other testing solutions from Original Software in a way which is accessible to both users and testers to ensure you retain 'total application quality'.

Professional Testing Made Simple For Users, Developers and Testers

TestBench for SQL Server, Oracle and System i maximizes software quality through better, faster and easier testing. With TestBench, you can increase productivity and efficiency, improve systems stability and quickly start to see real resource savings. Take control of your data, view and interrogate your database effects, predict your test results and ensure data privacy and stability with TestBench.

TestBench At A Glance

Data is King! Good Test Data = Reliable Test Results

Intelligent Data Extraction

This is a simplified process of creating and extracting data subsets from your live database with great efficiency and full referential integrity with no program complications. Data integrity for any purpose is assured.

Data Scrambling!

Real data can be used that accurately reflects the live environment, but has been made anonymous, neutralising the risk of testing on live data by no longer exposing real customer details and high security risk items to the live testing process.

Test Data Management (TDM)

Fundamental to the success of your data strategy. With bad data comes poor testing, results you can not trust and a whole lot of wasted time, money and effort. It pays to get data management right.

Database Validation

"Total Application Quality" enables a true regression testing capability to be built and automated, without the need for complex algorithms and SQL to validate data. TestBench is able to show you what happened in the database as a result of the test process and to test these writes, updates and deletes against predetermined business rules. For example, an order at status '3' must have a valid despatch date. You don't need to know how the tables are joined, how to find the affected data or know any SQL - TestBench just tells you exactly what happened.
