Code Coverage Made Safe and Fast for Enterprises

To keep up with rapidly changing business requirements, enterprises must be able to change its software not only quickly, but also safely. Even minor code changes can often cause major regressions in functionality. A thorough suite of unit tests is a proven way to help development teams detect potential regressions quickly and easily, but test development is a time-consuming and combinatorial problem.
Without some form of automation, it's easy to fall short in unit testing efforts; most software organizations that practice unit testing rarely achieve coverage of more than 10 to 20 %.
With a view of giving development teams a basic safety net of tests to reduce risk when changing applications, Agitar Software has introduced a new version of AgitarOne that promises to reduce the risk associated with changing business applications to achieve improved business agility.
According to Alberto Savoia, CTO of Agitar, AgitarOne's out-of-the-box automation gives developers the time to focus on testing the areas of the code that can benefit the most from human insight, intuition, and domain knowledge. AgitarOne helps an organization to transform its code base from fragile to agile, and have exhaustive tests without exhausted developers.
Vishnu Raned, country manager, Agitar Software (India) said, Agitar's solution for testing automation dramatically enhances the speed and efficiency of unit testing efforts, while slashing the cost.
To ensure effective creation, usage, and management of unit tests, AgitarOne includes - software agitation to perform exploratory tests on Java code interactively; code-rule enforcement; code-risk management dashboard that allows a continuous view of actual project quality compared to unit-level quality targets; and continuous integration and test framework.
