CNO Teamcenter Testsuite

Within the scope of deployments or adaptations to the configuration of Teamcenter, tests are indispensable for the provision and operation of a well-functioning solution.

However, in many companies the use of automated test procedures is deliberately avoided due to a poor cost/benefit ratio. Reasons are factors such as development effort, frequent version changes or a project budget that is too small.

Our Test Suite for Teamcenter provides a simple and flexible test automation solution. The test suite can be directly used for standard Teamcenter use cases and is easys to extend without deep programming skills.
