Add structure to your application
testing process.
HP Quality Center software (formerly HP TestDirector
for Quality Center software) drives a more effective
and efficient global application testing process
and supports high levels of communication and
collaboration among geographically distributed
testing teams. HP Quality Center has several
modules—requirements management, release and
cycle management, test plan, test lab, defects
management, and dashboard reporting—that are
seamlessly integrated to allow for the smooth flow of
information across testing stages.
HP Quality Center brings structure to your testing
projects and stores information in a central repository.
Because HP Quality Center is Web-based, all members
can access critical project information—regardless of
geographic and organizational boundaries.
HP Quality Center Enterprise
HP Quality Center Enterprise (formerly TestDirector for
Quality Center) is suitable for more mainstream QA
organizations that are managing medium to large
releases. It contains the full complement of HP Quality
Center modules, but not the advanced capabilities of
Quality Center Premier.
HP Quality Center Premier
The software is a new platform designed for the
needs of large and global organizations who manage
enterprise-wide releases spanning hundreds of
applications. HP Quality Center Premier includes all the
features of HP Quality Center Enterprise plus additional
features to address the business problems of these
mature customers. It is ideal for customers with a quality
Center of Excellence (COE).
How HP Quality Center works
HP Quality Center streamlines the end-to-end quality
process—from requirements management through
test execution, and defect management—in one,
globally accessible, Web-based software platform.
The following modules are offered in both HP Quality
Center Enterprise and HP Quality Center Premier.
Manage requirements
HP Quality Center provides a central repository for
managing multiple requirements types and provides
real-time visibility of requirements coverage and
associated defects to evaluate quality and business
risk. Multi-dimensional traceability is supported
between requirements, tests and defects, across
releases and test cycles.
When requirements change, a change impact report
provides visibility into the requirements affected,
enabling you to avoid a full regression test after each
change. Dispersed teams also receive notification of
any requirements changes that impact their activities.
Align testing priorities based on risk.
