Consumer Experience
SAN MATEO, CA — June 20, 2007 — Continuing to provide the most comprehensive and innovative mobile handset and application testing technology, TestQuest, Inc. today announced that its best-of-class testing environment, TestQuest CountDownTM, will support automated testing of BREW® devices, user interfaces (UI) built for QUALCOMM’s uiOneTM offering, and wireless applications built for QUALCOMM’s BREW solution. TestQuest Countdown is designed to accelerate time to market and reduce testing and verification costs, which help ensure customer satisfaction and quality of the end-user experience while decreasing the risk of costly recalls and service problems that can result in lost customers and brand damage. TestQuest will showcase its products in booth #53 at the BREW 2007 Conference, being held June 20 - 22 in San Diego.
TestQuest CountDown brings test design, management and execution together in one powerful platform. It promotes collaboration – sharing of test assets, test results and information among distributed test teams – and its codeless development environment and Adaptive Test Case TechnologyTM enable easy test logic creation, maintenance and reuse across mobile platforms. The TestQuest Interface uses the BREW Tools Interface Layer (BTIL) and a Screen Capture BTIL Extension for direct communication between TestQuest CountDown and BREW devices. With TestQuest CountDown, operators, device manufacturers and application developers can test the actual consumer experience on real devices in real environments.
“TestQuest is committed to delivering the effective testing solutions the wireless industry needs to accelerate the product realization process,” said John Yuzdepski, chief sales and marketing officer for TestQuest. “By utilizing QUALCOMM’S BREW, CountDown provides a true end-to-end solution and streamlines the testing of 3G handsets, personalized interfaces and rich content.”
“We share a common goal with TestQuest to ensure developers and manufacturers have the capability to conduct real-time testing, thereby helping them to reduce development costs and accelerate their time to market,” said Christophe Bernard, staff manager, developer relations for QUALCOMM Internet Services. “CountDown provides such a solution for the mobile space, targeted at improving the overall experience for BREW operators, handset manufacturers and developers.”
