Switzerland's Largest Telecom Provider Selects StormTest(R) Development Center for Automated System Testing
(firmenpresse) - DUBLIN, IRELAND -- (Marketwire) -- 02/20/12 -- , a global enabler of the highest quality digital TV content delivery platforms, today announced that , Switzerland's largest telecommunications provider, has chosen StormTest Development Center to ensure the accurate and speedy software testing on IPTV Set-Top Boxes (STBs). This deployment, focused on STBs running Microsoft® Mediaroom™ Client, has instantly improved the accuracy of testing as well as turnaround time. Swisscom was previously utilizing manual testing which is often time consuming, repetitive and poses more room for errors.

Swisscom is optimizing the solution to test its customized Microsoft® Mediaroom™ Client and TV apps. This simulates the customers' experience and reduces the amount of time required per test hence optimizing the productivity of its development in general. With the streamlining ability of StormTest Development Center, Swisscom can now benefit from a powerful automated software testing framework that is flexible enough to cover a wide range of scenarios -- an objective that was previously unachievable.
