TestDirector Return to Top



With the advent of automated testing tools, an important utility of the computer now includes managing the automated testing process.

The goal of this seminar is (1) to demonstrate how to utilize Mercury TestSuite TestDirector features in organizing, managing, and documeningt a test set, and (2) to equip a test team with the expertise found in those features.

TestDirector brings both managing and organizational techniques to the test manager. It supports the planning and organizing of test scripts, the creation and execution of those test scripts, and the tracking of defects found during the execution of test scripts.

The course is broken into logical sessions incorporating support lab exercises (see Content).
