I recently read, AutomatedQA, Pragmatic Software and SmartBear had merged. Now... as I do consider myself a "semi-computer nerd", I'm not really interested in reading about mergers and acquisitions. But this story caught my eye....
When I finished reading the article, one word popped in my mind... "
genius". What a solid and creative plan to pull together 3 tools that every software development shop would need. An Automated test and performance tool, a requirements and defect tracking tool and a code review tool... like I said "
genius". And get this... they are affordable to even the smallest development shops, making integrated automation accessible to the masses!
I checked out their ALM Complete product and I was extremely impressed by what it offers, Project Management, Performance Management, Requirements Tracking , Defect Tracking, Collaboration and Reporting.
Believe me, I know times are tough and companies tend to lean more towards free shareware options, which is the route we take here at ThePort. But if you do have a small budget and want a more robust tool that would cover all your needs, take a look at what they have to offer. They pride themselves on being an affordable solution and spend the time differentiating themselves from the "big" automation providers. Another "
genius" move!
