Parasoft has announced the availability of Parasoft WebKing 6.0, an automated Web testing suite that provides comprehensive testing and analysis of Web sites and Web applications to ensure they meet the reliability, security, and performance goals necessary to support business requirements effectively.
Parasoft Corp. provides software development organizations an automated infrastructure to control and improve the process of developing business applications.
"Parasoft WebKing 6.0 now allows us to successfully capture interaction with our AJAX components automatically," said Greg Hasson, software QA lead for Networkcar." This significantly improves the ability to exercise all aspects of our AJAX applications, which we couldn't do before."
Parasoft WebKing 6.0 determines where errors are introduced in complex AJAX/RIA applications, such as Google Maps, through a divide and conquer approach. Parasoft WebKing now determines if errors are a result of problems introduced on the client or server side by generating noiseless reusable test cases. This improves productivity by eliminating the pain of rewriting scripts as Web applications evolve.
"I was pleasantly surprised at how gentle the learning curve for Parasoft WebKing 6.0 is compared to other competing products," said Paul Oakes, principle QA engineer for AOL. "I'm definitely looking forward to using Parasoft WebKing 6.0."
JavaScript is commonly difficult to debug, yet crucial in the creation of AJAX applications. As Parasoft WebKing 6.0 automatically detects errors that are often not exposed until runtime, users can now find and correct issues at an earlier stage in the software development lifecycle. Parasoft WebKing 6.0 also prevents flaws from reaching the code with policy creation and enforcement for corporate governance and solution consistency.
In addition, Parasoft WebKing 6.0 generates JUnit tests that use an AJAX-enabled library. This helps to facilitate collaboration between development and QA in short or nonexistent release cycles, significantly reducing the rework loop.
ôWeb application testing is difficult to automate. Teams often create automated test suites, but due to too many false positives they are eventually abandoned,ö said Wayne Ariola, VP of strategy for Parasoft Corp. ôParasoft WebKing 6.0 facilitates creation of automated test suites that are much more reliable and dependable.ö Parasoft WebKing 6.0 is available for Windows, Linux, and Solaris.
