The following matrix outlines the challenges faced by IT and demonstrates the value proposition offered through the implementation of HP Software Solutions. | IT measures | Benefit | Value proposition | Products | | Quality Management process effectiveness | Faster, better | Customers find that automating key quality-management processes (for example, defect management, testing management, application readiness analysis, quality assurance (QA) project management, and so on) results in significant improvements in: Time and accuracy of test planning, staging and execution; time to assess application status and readiness for release; and overall application quality. | HP Quality Center software | | Testing process effectiveness | More better,faster, cheaper | Customers find that automated test cycles can be executed as much as 95 percent faster, resulting in significant time, people, and cost savings. By testing faster, customers can test significantly more in the same allotted, or test the same amount more quickly. This results in the ability to release more quickly and frequently, with better overall application quality, at the same or reduced costs | HP QuickTest Professional software, HP Quality Center software, HP LoadRunner software | | Application quality | Better | Customers find that the ability to plan and execute key testing processes in a managed and automated way leads to faster identification of more defects, and better overall understanding of application quality status. This results in significantly improved application quality. | HP QuickTest Professional software, HP Quality Center software, HP LoadRunner software | | Application performance, availability | Better, cheaper | Customers find that automating the process of performance and capacity validation leads to much better identification of bottlenecks and other problems that would slow performing applications or cause production down time. By identifying more of these issues more quickly, they release better-performing applications in less time. Additionally, by validating and improving capacity as part of this process, customers can verify that applications are scaled to meet demand while reducing their total capital expenditure on infrastructure. | HP LoadRunner | | Quality management time | Faster | Quality management and testing are critical components of the quality management process. Additionally, difficulties in understanding the state of application quality and performance capability are often last steps, preventing an application from going from development to production. By implementing BTO solutions that automate these key processes, they are done more quickly and more accurately, resulting in faster release and fewer delays. | HP QuickTest Professional, HP Quality Center software, HP LoadRunner | | Application management and support effectiveness | Cheaper, more | Customers find that using HP BTO solutions leads to significantly less production support demand. There are fewer calls to the help desk, production specialists respond to fewer issues, and developers spend less time doing rework and fixing bugs. This means that staff can be applied to other high-value projects. | HP QuickTest Professional, HP Quality Center software, HP LoadRunner | | Business alignment | More, better,cheaper | With BTO solutions in place to help measure and manage process, customers find that it is easier to set common objectives, service level agreement (SLA), and so on with the business units they support. The result is less time spent on managing requirements, user acceptance testing, and fixing things that didn’t meet customer expectations, freeing people to work on other high-value projects. | HP QuickTest Professional, HP Quality Center software, HP LoadRunner |
