Test Environment Management

Manage Your Test Environment With Parasoft Virtualize

Enable DevOps by leveraging service virtualization to stabilize your test environments

Parasoft Virtualize provides a powerful, easy-to-use web interface to manage the virtual assets associated with service virtualization, so users can control every aspect of their test environment, from configuring different response types and behavior, to controlling performance characteristics.

How Does It Work?

Parasoft Virtualize gives users complete control over their test environment by removing testing roadblocks within their test environment, such as unavailable/unstable dependencies or access to expensive third-party test labs. Users can even use Parasoft Virtualize to allow testing to begin before a service dependency is implemented.

It starts with decoupling the application from its dependent resources and creating a library of assets that represent the different functional, data, and performance-related scenarios needed for testing. Parasoft makes it easy to coordinate the provisioning and use of these assets by making them available to the team to “self-provision” on-demand. With an intuitive browser-based interface, users have access to manage the library of assets and bundle different assets together into a virtual test environment for instant access.

Features

Benefit from the Parasoft Approach

Streamline the adoption of service virtualization with an easy-to-use thin-client interface.

With Parasoft Virtualize, you can create lightweight virtual services through an intuitive script-less interface. Developers, testers and DevOps engineers can easily create, collaborate, and re-use virtual assets and preconfigured test environments. You can also track utilization and adoption of service virtualization artifacts to understand the ROI of their service virtualization initiative.

Rapidly reconfigure the behaviour of your test environment without having to re-deploy your application

Leverage Parasoft Virtualize’s proxies to dynamically switch into failover mode if a real system ever goes off-line. Use the thin-client interface or Parasoft’s programmatic REST API to control the functionality, data, and performance characteristics of the test environment by rapidly switching between different configurations of live and virtual dependencies. Connect Virtualize to your CI infrastructure to dynamically deploy and destroy disposable test environments as a part of your Continuous Delivery pipeline.

Get immediate visibility into the health of your test environment

Integrate component health checks into your test environment prior to test execution and enable them to be executed as test environments are provisioned, giving testers a self-service method to ensure their environments behave exactly the way they need when they need.

See the Value of Parasoft Virtualize

Want to see how much service virtualization can benefit your testing processes?

Use this handy calculator to assess how Parasoft Virtualize can help you decrease the time and costs of application testing by reducing constraints in the environment.

Just enter the number of people on your development and testing teams along with inputs for test environments, defects, and delivery delays. You’ll get a calculation that projects the value of the potential benefits you could experience by implementing the Parasoft service virtualization solution in your organization.
