At this year's HP Software Universe we're thrilled to be talking about a quality practice where we've seen incredible strides made over the last two years. The concept sounds simple enough: Virtualize away my upstream constraints and dependencies so that the test lab (for instance HP LoadRunner and Unified Functional Testing) solutions have a self-contained environment for testing.
However when you look at how complex and interdependent today's applications are, you begin to understand why replicating these complex behaviors -- such as unavailable or secured systems, third-party Services and components that are still under development -- has been resistant to replicating via conventional hardware virtualization means.
What is really cool is how we've seen customers of HP and iTKO bring this particular challenge under control. If you are planning on being in Las Vegas for this year's HPSU 2009 - June 15-19 - we invite you to take an hour to join HP Senior Product Manager Jeffrey Meyers, and iTKO Founder/Chief Geek John Michelsen to find out how these Virtual Test Environments can eliminate constraints (and costs) in a big way.
Session 1497: Thursday, June 18 - 10:30am - 11:30am
"Eliminate testing constraints and test earlier in the lifecycle: using service virtualization to drive testing momentum"
Here's the abstract of the session:
If
your IT team is struggling with obstacles outside your organization,
then join HP and iTKO and find out how HP testing solutions, combined
with the iTKO LISA Virtualize platform, can minimize external
dependencies and help you test earlier in the development cycle, before a
complete test environment is ready to meet your testing objectives.
You’ll hear how the combined HP and iTKO solution works in complex
shared environments of modern applications, agile development
techniques, and volatile data sources to make your testing efforts
constraint free.
If you are planning on being there, look us up on Twitter as well: http://twitter.com/itko and drop us a note or feedback on your thoughts.
It seems in June we really catch the "last gasp" of interesting IT events, and this month is no exception - besides attending this excellent summit, we are bringing in the summer next week presenting sessions in Chicago at Technology Executives Club and a Federal roundtable at GTRA in Virginia. Hope we see you at one of these key events soon.
