The K2View Test Data Management solution quickly provisions complete test data sets from any production sources based on user-defined rules – so testing teams spend less time retrieving and preparing data, and complete testing more quickly, at higher quality, and earlier in the software development cycle. K2View , therefore , enables Shift-Left Testing.
Testers use the solution's self-service portal to define their desired test data sets and submit their requests for the testing manager’s approval. For example, a tester could request to receive test data related to 50 customers in a certain zip code, with 2 or more children, and an outstanding debt greater than a specific amount.
Upon the manager’s approval, K2View Test Data Management extracts all the data associated with the particular business entities (customers, in our example) from all relevant production systems. The data is then masked and transmitted to the appropriate test environment – one entity at a time.
The test data management solution empowers development, QA and DevOps teams to provision test data themselves, in a simple automated process, on a single platform – regardless of the number systems to be tested, their respective technologies, and the number of testing environments.
The solution offers test data management tools to generate realistic, synthetic test data – rules-based, and masked on the fly – ensuring data integrity across all test environments, automatically. It also provides managers with dashboards to monitor data requests, schedule them, track execution status, execution results, and more.
Thanks to our patented Digital Entity™ technology, the K2View Test Data Management solution delivers complete test data you can trust, across all your applications.
Developers and testers execute a test management strategy by defining exactly the data they require for regression or progression test cases, using a graphical user interface, and the test data is provisioned in an instant, once their request is approved.
There is no risk of ever provisioning an incomplete or corrupted set of test data, so the test data – which is consistently and intelligently masked for speed and compliance – is no longer a bottleneck to regression or progression testing.
With K2View Test Data Management, we reduced test data load and delete times to minutes, instead of days or weeks, and substantially increased both progression and regression test coverage.
