Cloud-based Telecom Testing: Why and How Wednesday, March 14, 2012 11:00 AM ET/ 8:00 AM PT Testing has become a critical factor for improving the odds of a new product's commercial success. In the ever-changing connected world, new devices, standards, cross-industry applications, and infrastructure equipment are rolled-out almost monthly. Testing methods and processes need to be constantly re-evaluated and updated to address today's wide range of use cases. While it has become imperative to test for end-to-end network operation and broad interoperability, the costs of even functional testing are becoming prohibitively high. As a result, equipment manufacturers are increasingly looking for novel ideas to get the maximum bang for their buck; and cloud-based testing solutions are taking the lead. In this webinar, experts from Aricent will identify the challenges in traditional telecom testing and justify the case for delivering testing competencies through the cloud. They will investigate the limitations overcome by cloud-based testing and present the customer benefits derived from these solutions. An interactive Q&A session will allow attendees to allay their specific fears about cloud-based telecom testing. Additionally, the speakers will also highlight Aricent's platform agnostic cloud-based test tool - the Software Tool for Automated Test Environment (STATE), which accelerates unit testing, subsystem and system integration testing, and regression testing of telecom products and applications.
