White Papers

The quantity of data produced from an application-based performance test can be monumental when faced with the task of analyzing it. This whitepaper will explain how to use Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) and the macro functionality in Microsoft Excel to manipulate export data in order to save time in preparing performance data charts

This whitepaper describes the Greybox architecture testing strategy, which analyzes computing environments from a broad-based quality perspective. It is a mixed approach to software testing and includes key elements of ​“whitebox” and of ​“blackbox” testing. 

One of the hottest trends in business information is the move toward Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) as the new paradigm for enterprise computing. What does SOA really mean? And, more important, how can the enterprise ​“engineer-in” SOA quality?

This real-life case study illustrating the strategy RTTS used to overcome unique challenges in testing for the brokerage industry by leveraging the latest technology into complex order management systems, all while maintaining data integrity, security and timeliness to market.

Published in The Rational Edge, this technical paper gives you step-by-step instruction to use IBM Rational’s performance testing tools to conduct agentless monitoring on Apache Web Servers.

In this paper we take a look at the ROI derived from automated testing, targeting both functional and scalability, and determine guidelines for maximizing the ROI.

This article explains how to implement performance testing solutions in heterogeneous environments that utilize IBM WebSphere MQ applications

How post-deployment application testing provides unique, and often unrealized, benefits that will positively affect your application’s performance.

This paper discusses network analysis and performance tools that may be used to tune enterprise architectures for optimal performance.

RTTS has built a model for reducing cost of ownership of performance tests that provide a large price savings to the customer.

What, if any, real savings reside in outsourcing of this work and how effective is it

The uncertainty in how an architecture will respond to the demands placed on it creates the need for end-to-end architecture testing.

To successfully deploy a data warehouse, an organization must be confident that the reports generated display the proper data. In the Pharmaceutical industry, where the correctness of Safety Data is paramount for reasons of both public health and compliance with Federal regulation, the issue of data quality takes on even greater proportions. The focus of this whitepaper is to explain how to ensure that the data in the data warehouse is properly loaded from the source system(s).

This paper reveals the issues related to testing data warehouses, especially in the pharmaceutical industry, and RTTS’ strategies to overcome the complexity of testing the architecture.
