Event: Testing Tool Bake-off <#Abstract1>Date/Time: May 27, 2004 5:30 - 8:30 PM Presenters: Segue, Mercury Interactive, IBM/Rational Place: Rm. 321, Robert Frost Hall Southern NH Univ., Manchester, NH RSVP: By Wednesday May 26 5 PM for headcount to ahamlen@comcast.net Back by popular demand, the Software Engineering & Quality SIG is proud to present the Testing Tool Bake-off. We will have demonstrations of several testing tools and time for you to get answers about their use and future. We have the following vendors lined up: * Mercury Interactive * Segue * IBM/Rational The vendors have been asked to: 1. Demonstrate how they handle regression, black box, white box, performance, load, and code coverage testing. 2. Demonstrate how they handle testing of an application with a GUI and an application which has no GUI. 3. Discuss what standards their product supports (e.g. XML, TCP/IP, SQL, etc.) 4. Demonstrate how they generate test cases. 5. Show their language for writing test cases if you have one. 6. Discuss how their product connects test cases with requirements specifications. The requirement for participation is to not show a beta version that could change dramatically before it is released. The product must be currently released or in beta test to be released within 3 months. It should be an interesting event for anyone involved in software testing. Hope to see you there!!!!
