Mindtree finds a new shoot with HP on app testing

BANGALORE: HP has announced that India's IT company Mindtree has selected HP Software to offer application testing solutions that shorten the testing cycle for its customers by up to 30 per cent. This, as stated, enables Mindtree's customers to accelerate the continuous delivery of modern and innovative applications, while maintaining the highest quality possible.

Among its broad technology offerings, Mindtree provides application testing solutions to help businesses and government agencies deploy high quality applications that embrace areas like cloud and mobility. However, the manual testing processes used by Mindtree resulted in long development times and inconsistent quality for new software applications.

To address this and expand its presence in the $1 billion worldwide software testing market1, Mindtree selected HP Software to automate and optimize its entire software application testing business, as per the announcement.

Mindtree has integrated HP Service Virtualization, HP LoadRunner and HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT) into its testing practices.

"To thrive and succeed, organizations need modern enterprise applications that can respond quickly to customer and citizen demands," said Ananda Rao Ladi, Senior Vice President, Independent Testing Services, Mindtree. "By automating our entire application software testing business with HP Software solutions, we can accelerate the delivery of applications and ensure the highest level of quality for our customers."

As further shared, HP Service Virtualization will enable development and testing teams at Mindtree to work in parallel by providing a simulated, virtual environment. This will reduce the delays development and testing teams face in a conventional application development cycle. HP UFT will help Mindtree automate the functional testing of business process transactions that span multiple application layers, cutting the cost and complexity of the testing process while improving application quality.
