SEEC, Inc. Introduces Its AccuTest(TM) Solution, Providing Seamless
Integration of All Phases of Testing
PR Newswire, Thursday, March 12, 1998 at 15:17
IS Departments Can Now Build a Robust Testing Infrastructure
To Last Well Beyond the Year 2000
PITTSBURGH, March 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Today SEEC, Inc. (NASDAQ:SEEC)
announced its comprehensive, integrated testing solution, AccuTest(TM). The AccuTest solution combines the wide coverage and accuracy of SEEC's powerful remediation, test coverage and path analysis tools with the strengths of third-party test management and capture/playback tools to create a single,seamless testing solution for mainframe COBOL systems.
An integral part of the AccuTest solution is SEEC COBOL Slicer(TM),providing path analysis capabilities to help users understand the logic embedded in programs and pinpoints tests required to verify changes. It accurately predicts the conditions necessary to properly test the affected paths, and instruments the code to track test coverage.
Where SEEC COBOL Slicer provides thorough path analysis and test coverage, AccuTest's third-party tools allow users to create, organize, schedule and run tests, collect and compare the test outputs, and track errors. In combination, this test coverage and pinpoint path analysis enables easy test case generation to reduce testing to only the remediated items, saving significant time and testing costs.
Nanda Nandkishore, consultant for Millenium Consulting, Inc., stated, "In the Year 2000 compliance effort, testing and validation is the most expensive and time-consuming phase, estimated to be approximately half of the total effort. Most corporations are ill-prepared for testing due to the lack of methodology, inadequate test data, and mostly manual procedures. SEEC's AccuTest is ideal because it provides a high level of automation, a testing
discipline, validation capability, verification of adequacy of test data, and helps create additional test data."
Ravi Koka, President and CEO of SEEC, stated, "There is a myriad of tools available for testing, but very few solutions that span coverage, unit and system testing. The SEEC and third-party tools that make up SEEC's AccuTest solution help IS organizations create a testing infrastructure that will see them to the year 2000 and beyond."
