Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.3
On September 12, 2011 it became known that Oracle announced the new version of Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.3. - solutions for testing web, SOA-and Oracle applications. The starter kit of test scripts of Siebel CRM Test Starter Kit and the improved management of testing allow clients to develop applications quicker.
The new starter kit of test scripts provides for Oracle Siebel CRM to clients the built-in scenarios of functional and stress testing helping to test more simply and more effectively the Siebel CRM systems.
Deeper integration with the diagnostic aids of binding software and the database provided to Oracle Enterprise Manager allows testers quicker and with smaller efforts to establish the reasons of decline in production and system sections connected with it, thereby improving performance and efficiency of testing.
"In many industries clients need more and more the high performance of real-time applications as breaks in work and delays can lead to failure of contracts, the missed income and decrease in efficiency, – Richard Sarwal, the senior vice president of Oracle for product development emphasized. – Oracle continues to implement innovations in Application Testing Suite, allowing testers and quality assurance managers to trace and perform with ease testing and diagnostics of applications for ensuring optimal performance".
Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.3 supports the focused testing structured business which is based on industry-leading methodology of Test Management Approach (TMap) from Capgemini Group. Approach of TMap considers risks and promotes effective management and standardization of processes of testing.

Faster and effective applications testing
Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.3 offers diagnostic aids for applications of Java and Oracle databases of Database, allowing clients to fix critical performance concerns during testing. Among new features:
- Oracle Siebel CRM Test Starter Kit – provides the ready scenarios allowing to start quickly testing of the Siebel CRM systems. Scenarios can be used in finished form or are modified for the purpose of more effective testing of "flows of users". Test scripts were created by department of development of Siebel that allowed to offer the most comprehensive set of templates for testing.
- Integration with diagnostic aids of Oracle Enterprise Manager Diagnostics Packs – using the built-in tools of Oracle for diagnostics allows to monitor behavior of the products Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Database during stress testing and performance tests, helping to define precisely "bottlenecks" and to quickly eliminate them.
- Oracle Test Manager – gives new opportunities for testing planning, including the built-in template for support of methodology of Capgemini Group TMap which allows to improve work of quality assurance managers (Quality Assurance, QA). Using the new module QA managers can manage the planned documents or templates connected with processes of testing and methodology. All documents and templates are stored and controlled in the Oracle database of Test Manager. They are displayed in the form of a hierarchical tree for quick access to process descriptions, lists of controlled parameters and links to requirements to tests. This opportunity allows QA managers to see and understand better processes, potential risks and control documentation.
Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.2
In Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.2 (November, 2010) support of the automated functional and stress testing for Oracle Database, applications on the basis of Oracle Application Development Framework and Adobe Flex is expanded and also integration into Oracle Enterprise Manager Real User Experience Insight, Oracle Real Application Testing and Oracle Database Diagnostics Pack is expanded. "Ensuring high performance and reliable operation of applications – permanently relevant task for heads of business and IT departments in the conditions of permanent deployment of new and frequent updates of existing applications, – Richard Sarwal, the senior vice president of Oracle for product development considers. – Thanks to Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.2 our customers will be able to accelerate applications testing process that will allow them to develop permanently high-quality applications supporting crucial business processes".
The key TMap templates (Test Management Approach) from Capgemini Group are built in the version of Oracle Application Testing Suite 9.2. According to Oracle, it is the business focused methodology of the structured software testing based on risks assessment and promoting effective management and standardization of processes of testing.
Among new opportunities and improvements of Oracle Application Testing Suite of version 9.2, in addition to the TMap templates from Capgemini Group, it is also possible to note: testing of Oracle Database — an opportunity to create test scripts by import of real database transactions from files of collecting of loading Database Replay allows to perform faster, cost-efficient and realistic testing; starting sets of Test Starter Kit — contain examples of scripts of functional and stress testing for Oracle applications of E-Business Suite Release12 and 11i; support of applications, including functionally saturated Internet-applications (RIA) constructed based on Oracle ADF, Adobe Flex and web services — helps users to provide the high level of quality of applications of own development and package Oracle applications; support of testing and diagnostics — using Oracle Real User Experience Insight users can create scripts on the basis of records of real user sessions and precisely define performance "bottlenecks" at stress testing; writing of scripts — it is possible to apply to creation of test scripts automatically knowledge of specifics of Oracle Applications that makes scripts easier, facilitates their use for the beginning testers and increases efficiency of testers of all skill levels; interaction between scripts — such opportunities as synchronization and parametrization, facilitate creation of the test modes for the difficult, requiring coordination scenarios.
In addition to everything, the version of Oracle Application Testing 9.2 contains testing accelerators for Oracle applications, including Oracle Siebel, Oracle E-Business Suite and also applications based on Oracle Applications Development Framework. These accelerators facilitate applications testing of Oracle, giving the opportunities which are absent in traditional work benches of testing of third-party suppliers emphasized in Oracle.
