HP sprinter: Agile accelerator

A recent Forrester study commissioned by HP (1) showed that, 81% of organizations in Europe, 84% of organizations in the Asia Pacific region, and 78% of organizations in North America have adopted or planned to use agile approaches for application delivery. Agility is a method for developing high-quality software and supporting application modernization.

HP sprinter and HP agile accelerator 4.0 (HP agile accelerator 4.0) scalable enterprise HP software application portfolio (HP Software applications portfolio) to enhance agile methods.

HP sprinter automates the creation process of test data to accelerate application deployment. This accelerates manual testing, including exploratory testing techniques commonly used in Agile development.

HP agile accelerator 4.0 greatly simplifies the application delivery process through predefined workflows and configuration management agile development projects. By using flexible methods during testing, IT resources can deliver higher quality applications. This enables IT teams to quickly deliver complex, integrated Web 2.0 applications that meet market needs.

Exploratory testing is critical to agile development because it makes it possible to design, execute, and learn synchronous tests. Unlike a test that only proves the expected results, the exploratory tester aims to discover situations that are hard to predict before the test starts. Therefore, the tester can identify errors faster. However, exploratory testers often fail to provide developers with sufficient information to recreate and correct the errors they have found.

Using HP sprinter to accelerate manual testing, you can handle problems by documenting steps performed by the exploratory tester. When a tester records an error, the relevant information can be immediately sent to the developer who can track this record step and correct the error. This rapid turnaround is critical for responding to changing business needs and quickly delivering applications.
