TestPlant, who markets the eggPlant brand of software quality tools, has announced the launch of two new tools for desktop and mobile test engineers. eggMan and eggBox extend the eggPlant range to include a manual testing tool and an appliance to create an instant testing lab, or testing centre of excellence.
eggPlant is a set of software quality tools which supports the design, development, test and management of software applications for mainframe, desktop and mobile use in any technology platform environment. The tools are relevant in agile, mobile, web and DevOps deployments.
The new eggMan product is a free tool for manual test engineers. It allows testers to connect with any system, locally or remotely. It is compatible with eggCloud, which provides secure and scheduled connection to devices anywhere on a private cloud. eggMan includes a free test automation tutorial with access to on-line documentation and videos. eggMan allows automation and manual test engineering teams to collaborate and share systems under test.
eggBox delivers a new iOS Gateway in an appliance, which also contains a switchable option list of eggCloud, eggPlant Manager and eggIntegration. It is a test lab in a box and responds to the need for controlled testing tools. eggBox works in all operating system environments, is designed both for desktop and mobile testing, and deploys tools available to in-house or offshore test resources.
