SOAPscope Bubbles Up Into Quality Center


Mindreef Web services testing now runs from within Quality Center



November 1, 2007 — 
Many QA teams have standardized on HP Quality Center to automate testing and manage and govern quality processes. Instead of reinventing the wheel, Mindreef integrated its SOAPscope Server quality management platform for Web services with the solutions it understood its customers were using.

By way of an add-on that became available in early October, customers can now use HP Quality Center to invoke SOAPscope Server and Mindreef Load Check to perform Web services testing, in addition to retrieving, reviewing and sharing test results.

A separate command-line interface provides script-based test automation capabilities to SOAPscope Server. Users can run load checks and test suites from the command line by running a script and automate tests using third-party tools, including SQL Server Agent and Windows Scheduler.

Frank Grossman, president and technology leader at Mindreef, explained that the command-line interface also lends itself to continuous build process software, such as CruiseControl and the Anthill build management server. Going forward, SOAPscope Server will be integrated with software that manages and supports architecture, Grossman added.

“Without the ability to automate SOA testing, the processes and procedures around SOA quality assurance won’t provide the same value,” said David Linthicum, managing partner with ZapThink and SOA Watch columnist for SD Times. “The integration with HP Quality Center and new test automation capabilities in SOAPscope Server will allow those charged with testing SOAs to become more effective.”
