Functional Testing
- Are you expected to operate with
limited resources and tight deadlines while implementing
new technologies that improve business processes, reduce
costs, and always work flawlessly?
- Do you have a complete software testing
solution in place to ensure that applications always work
as expected?
- Do you understand the risk to your business
and to your team’s credibility when software fails?
Mercury Functional Testing™
combines Mercury’s functional testing products, Mercury
QuickTest Professional™ and Mercury WinRunner®,
to deliver the industry’s most complete solution for
functional test, GUI test, and regression test automation
— with support for practically every software application
and environment.
Leverage Mercury WinRunner and Mercury QuickTest Professional
Mercury Functional Testing enables
you to leverage test assets from both WinRunner and QuickTest
Professional scripts. Quality engineers can use Mercury Functional
Testing to create “composite scripts” consisting
of tests built in both WinRunner and QuickTest Professional.
Mercury Functional Testing leverages the integration between
WinRunner and QuickTest Professional, where each product can
call scripts of the other, and test results are reported into
a common reporting interface.
