TestPlant, the maker of the eggPlant range of software quality tools, announced a strategic partnership with Wipro Ltd.. Together, the companies will jointly deliver next-generation digital assurance solutions for enterprises, providing tools that match the best-in-class requirements of large businesses.
Wipro's customers will now be able to benefit from the eggPlant range of software quality tools, which test and monitor the delivery of software applications on any device, as well as across data centers and networks. The partnership will provide an end-to-end Digital Assurance service by integrating eggPlant's patented, image-based approach to testing with Wipro's AssureNXT, a Next-Generation QA Delivery Framework, built on a foundation of Wipro tools, IPs and best practices that address the needs of new age digital transformation engagements.
TestPlant aligns with Wipro's QA approach of 'Easy, Smart and Rapid' to help organizations get software products to market faster, with higher quality, less effort, and clearer traceability. With unique technology, TestPlant's tools combine power and flexibility with a simplicity that means, any quality department can become more productive. From functional and performance testing to network virtualization and test environment management, eggPlant tools help organizations from media and defense to financial services and retail sectors improve their productivity and quality.
This partnership helps address the concerns highlighted by the recently released Digital Testing in Europe report by Pierre Audoin Consultants, which reported that 75% of European businesses agree that the expansion of their digital presence will be their number one IT priority over the next two years. However only 18% have implemented a digital testing strategy in 2015 and 35% of businesses in Europe are looking to implement a digital testing programme in the next 12 months.
"Wipro has an enviable position as a leader in technology services - we're flattered to be recognised as their partner," said TestPlant CEO George Mackintosh. "Our eggPlant range is now recognized as world-leading in the software quality tools market. Automating testing delivers better systems and better margins".
"Wipro's excellence in software testing, combined with TestPlant's product suite enables us to deliver Digital Assurance services with minimum turnaround time," said Kumudha Sridharan, Vice President and Head, Testing Services, Wipro Limited. "The superlative combination of TestPlant's automation tools and Wipro's hyper-automation framework will contribute to rich customer experience, faster time to market and business continuity."
