Virtualization

SWAT Lab is a leader in testing virtualization, and we have included virtualized environments in our QA testing process. We have built matrixes to test applications in all of the major virtualized environments, and we are adding new ones as they become available. With the increased popularity of virtualization, testing in these environments needs to be a standard requirement for all software testing. SWAT Lab is fully prepared to meet those needs to insure compatibility with today’s virtual environments.

Today’s powerful computer hardware was originally designed to run only a single operating system and a single application, but virtualization makes it possible to run multiple operating systems and multiple applications on the same computer at the same time, increasing the utilization and flexibility of the hardware. The chances are high that your application will be deployed in some type of virtualized environment. It therefore needs to be tested in those environments to insure compatibility.

SWAT Lab applies the same proven QA methodologies for testing virtualized environments that we have used with traditional environments for the past 14 years. Utilizing state-of-the-art configuration management tools, we maximize the range of possible testing configurations while minimizing the cost to you.  The matrix of configurations that is defined for your testing project will be captured and saved by SWAT Lab, so that we can easily revert back to a baseline state at a later time for regression testing. The entire matrix is brought back to base line automatically, insuring consistency of testing and saving you time and money.
