IBM Rational Quality Manager vs SoftLogica WAPT comparison

IBM Rational Quality Manager is a next-generation web-based collaboration tool that provides test artifact management, construction, and planning throughout the entire development process. IBM Rational Quality Manager is based on IBM’s successful Jazz™ platform and derives many of its popular intuitive features from Jazz™.

IBM Rational Manager was developed for every type of test team in the marketplace today. Every role is included, such as test manager, test architect, lab manager, tester, and test lead. The solution is also able to include various roles outside the established test organization.

IBM Rational Quality Manager Features and Benefits:

• Customizable design and construction: Users can easily define the overall design for each and every test case. Every test case contains a robust text editor, which can include background data concerning the test case. Test cases can include links to developmental requirements and items. They can also include test artifacts, such as test scripts, test case execution processes, and test plans. Test cases can also be integrated with test suites.
  
  
• Intuitive reporting: IBM Rational Quality Manager provides an intuitive set of predefined reports to ensure users get comprehensive status on all projects. Additional customized reports can be made available by using the Development Intelligence or Rational Insight features for more precise reporting. Users can view live test execution status and are also able to discover the relationship between test artifacts, development artifacts, and requirements in the traceability view.
  
  
• Exhaustive test planning processes: Users define and customize test plans that will drive all activity for the organization's teams through every component of the project’s lifecycle. Everything is developed around the concept of: “ Is this ready for release?” The test plan defines the project scope and test effort, and contains the key indicators so all team members will understand the desired outcomes.
  
  Top test plan tasks include (but are not limited to):
  
  
  • Definition of test and business objectives.
  • Evaluate the size of the test effort.
  • Define different environments to test and develop test configurations.
  • Develop entrance criteria, exit criteria, and overall quality goals.
  • Create a review and approval process for the test plan and/or individual test cases.
  • View Real-time Test Progress
    
    
• Collaboration made easy: Users can easily share data with other members of the team with the Collaboration Lifecycle Management (CLM). Team members can also assign tasks and view each other's progress. They can also distribute work for review and track the input and status of each reviewer. There is also the ability to lock artifacts to prevent others from editing a completed piece.
  
  
• Security: IBM Rational Quality Manager can protect against attack threats and data breaches with the IBM AppScan Tester. This can help achieve higher quality and more secure applications with greater positive outcomes at a very reasonable competitive cost.
  
  
• Governance: The solution will ensure that an organization’s business processes are in compliance with department, corporate, industry, regional, and government regulations and standards. IBM Rational Quality Manager will correlate test processes and create suitable records of testing results and project history to comply with any auditing process.

WAPT Pro (https://www.loadtestingtool.com) is a load and performance testing tool that works for any web site from a simple web service to a customized ERP or CRM solution. Mobile web applications, corporate portals and intranet sites implemented with any technologies can be easily tested with WAPT Pro. The test is created in a matter of minutes by recording it in a browser. A few clicks are required to make thousands virtual users concurrently execute duplicated sessions against your site. A convenient user interface lets you design data-driven tests with help of variables and session-specific values extracted from the server responses. This is done explicitly in the properties of each HTTP request. No scripting is required for the test implementation. Descriptive graphs and reports will let you analyze the performance parameters of the system components under various load conditions. You can isolate and fix any bottlenecks and optimize your software and hardware configuration. WAPT Pro is quite efficient and scalable. While the default configuration is sufficient to run up to 4k concurrent virtual users, you can easily extend it by adding multiple servers connected to a single workplace component. This way you can emulate up to 1M users. All components can be used in any virtual or cloud environment. A special edition is provided through the Amazon EC2, where you can use it at hourly price that depends on the test load volume.
