Datamatics Global Services Launches Dartenium for Web Automation Testing

17 July 2009, Mumbai: Datamatics Global Services Limited (BSE: 532528, NSE: “DATAMATICS”) announced the launch of DARTENIUM, a high-productivity automation framework for Web testing.

"Billions of dollars are spent by software ISVs and user organizations every year in debugging errors in software. The manual testing process has a higher turnaround time, leading to delays in product launches. Organizations who use a Web automation testing tool like DARTENIUM can effectively overcome the challenges of low productivity due to frequent errors," said Rahul Kanodia, Vice Chairman and CEO, Datamatics Global Services Limited.

Some of the unique features of DARTENIUM are:

Dartenium is easy to install and use. Its highly-intuitive user interface gives the users complete control over the automation testing process. The user interface guides and optimizes the automation pack creation process reducing the scripting time.

Dartenium incorporates the best practices in automation testing, thus bringing a clear focus on Automation RoI and Automation Effectiveness. The learning curve for the framework is low, hence increasing the velocity for carrying out automation testing projects.

Dartenium offers multi OS-browser combo support, found in very few Web testing automation frameworks. In addition, it has a robust execution engine that allows parallel runs across multiple machines. It also supports Web2.0 technologies, such as Ajax, which is used extensively in all popular applications. The solution has a hybrid framework, which is both keyword and data-driven. Among its other significant features are in-built configurable recovery scenarios that provide control over test execution and a result viewer that supports faster result analysis.

Datamatics Global Services' Dartenium team will provide full support and exhaustive tool orientation on Dartenium. During the launch period, a free download of Dartenium is available at www.dartenium.datamatics.com, where the tool can be bought in three easy steps. An online forum to discuss testing issues and Dartenium-related support has also been launched.

"Datamatics Global Services has been moving to a domain-centric and solution-centric organization. The launch of Dartenium is part of this broader corporate strategy. We have a wide portfolio of solutions, which we will continue expanding," Kanodia added.
