M-eux Test integration with Test Management Software

Test Management software allows testing teams to track their testing effort. Test Management includes features such as test planning, test execution and reporting and analysis of the results of those tests. Using Test Management software, teams gain deeper insight in the quality of the software they test.

A wide range of test management software is available on the market today. These products do not provide out of the box support for mobile testing. M-eux Test extends the functionalities of these products to mobile testing.

M-eux Test integrates with the following test management software suites:

• Hewlett Packard’s Quality Center (QC) and Application Lifecycle Management (ALM)
• Microsoft Test Manager (MTM) and Team Foundation Server (TFS)
• IBM Rational Quality Manager (RQM)

If you already use one or more of these test management products, M-eux test allows you to extend your testing capabilities to the mobile market while maintaining your existing processes and tools, without the need for retraining on a new test management platform.

HP Quality Center

HP Quality Center allows testing teams to centrally manage their test cases and scripts, given them a single platform to store test scripts, execute them on-demand or automatically, and store the outcome of their test runs.
