Packaged Enterprise Application Testing Leader Introduces Certify Capture™ Technology to Dramatically Cut End-to-End Test Automation Project Times 

LAS VEGAS (September 12, 2011) – Worksoft®, a leading provider of automated testing solutions for packaged enterprise applications, today announced the general availability of version 8.6 of the Worksoft Certify® Suite for use with SAP® applications. Worksoft’s Certify Suite is an integrated functional testing, performance testing and change management solution that automates the complete testing lifecycle from change impact analysis through audit documentation, accelerating customer time to value and significantly reducing operational costs.

“Version 8.6 builds upon our commitment to provide maintenance-free tests that can be easily created and used by business users,” said Shoeb Javed, CTO of Worksoft. “In Worksoft Certify, functional tests can be seamlessly transformed to Certify Performance without rebuilding the test – a first in the industry.”

At the heart of the Worksoft Certify Suite version 8.6 is Certify Capture™, a unique technology that dramatically reduces the time needed to automate tests. Built with business users in mind, Certify Capture culminates a decade of research and field experience gleaned from hundreds of successful Worksoft customer deployments around the world.

With Certify Capture, a user simply pushes the “Capture” button and all of the end-to-end business process interactions are automatically stored in a structured format in a relational database as a set of objects and actions. This not only helps companies achieve dramatic ROI in the areas of automated functional testing, but also enables them to easily reuse this information for a variety of purposes such as performance testing, documentation and training, certification and compliance, as well as user acceptance testing (UAT).

Another major component incorporated within this release is direct integration to version 7.1 of the SAP Solution Manager application management system. The new release allows customers to take full advantage of the advanced functionality offered by Worksoft Certify from directly within SAP Solution Manager.

Worksoft Certify Suite version 8.6 for use with SAP applications is available immediately. Today’s announcement was made at the SAP TechEd 2011 conference being held in Las Vegas, Sept. 12-16, where Worksoft is exhibiting in booth 604.
