Improve the speed of test data refresh by up to 90% with BMC AMI Load for Db2® and BMC AMI Unload for Db2®, increasing development velocity.
-
Increase agility and velocity of CI/CD pipelines through automating database changes via integrations with Jenkins and IBM UrbanCode.
Intelligent, automated testing to accelerate agile development
A new integration between Compuware Topaz for Total Test and Compuware ISPW empowers customers to quickly build sophisticated CI/CD pipelines that automate the build, deployment, and testing of mainframe applications. Pipelines automatically execute the right tests based on changed source code only. Organizations are able to:
-
Improve code quality and speed software delivery by taking the guesswork out of determining which tests should run.
-
Reduce the skills necessary to create advanced CI/CD pipelines.
-
Optimize the development process and break down silos between teams by leveraging a modern, open development environment.
-
Store source code on the mainframe, or use Git as the application source code and test repository by extending the existing ISPW/Git integration.
