DUBLIN, Calif., Aug. 15, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QASymphony (qasymphony.com), developers of defect documentation and Quality Assurance tools, today announced a partnership with Atlanta-based VersionOne, a leading agile project management tool. The relationship involves the integration of the qTrace intelligent screen capture tool with VersionOne's agile project management tool, which helps organizations adopt and scale agile processes. The integration between VersionOne and qTrace allows users to easily submit defect reports directly to VersionOne from qTrace.
"The name of the game is agile," said Vu Lam, CEO of QASymphony. "It's about rapid and flexible responses, so that software can evolve organically via collaboration between cross-functional teams and end users, resulting in great software. The qTrace tool supports the QA team participating in their agile environment; testing quickly yet still being able to provide clear documentation that enhances communication and collaboration. We performed extensive testing on qTrace and worked closely with VersionOne and their customers to ensure we have the most seamless experience for the user."
With support for agile software development methodologies such as Scrum, Extreme Programming (XP), Lean/Kanban, Hybrid and others, VersionOne is used by more than 50,000 software developer teams in 170 countries including such brands as Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Oppenheimer, and Siemens.
"We are impressed with the defect capture and documentation capabilities qTrace has brought to market," said Paul Culling, VP, Alliances at VersionOne. "qTrace goes beyond a simple screen shot utility. With their recent release, users can record screens and data in sequence, switching between four screen capture modes as needed. The easy integration with VersionOne helps to keep QA actively involved throughout the agile software process while improving team collaboration."
More powerful than using simple screenshot or video for documenting defects, qTrace records all steps, screens, and system information associated with a defect. The tool tracks user's interactions with the application under test and automatically creates detailed defect documentation.
Free and Pro editions of qTrace are available. Watch a short video by visiting www.qasymphony.com.
