We recently released version 2010.1 of TestTrack, which contains many new exciting new features. One new feature that I would like to give some love to is Item Mapping Rules. This feature will benefit users who have more than one TestTrack applications, as it allows you to configure how field values are mapped from one application to another.

Do you commonly write test cases for project requirements only to find out that you were looking at the requirement from last week and now the edit boxes are drop-downs and the radio buttons were turned into check boxes? So you have to go back and re-work the test but of course time isn’t in the schedule so you’re spending your evenings updating stale test cases. This huge headache is caused by a simple lack of communication. If someone had told you the requirements changed, you could have easily tracked down the latest copy and avoided the re-work.

For example, you can easily determine if you have proper test coverage by ensuring that a test case has been created for every requirement. You can easily flag a test case if a requirement has changed, avoiding testing stale data and wasting time and money. For this post, I want to focus on one of the biggest benefits: complete traceability.

If you use Surround SCM or any other robust software configuration management tool (gasp!), chances are you are using branches to manage your software development process. Depending on your branch strategy, you may find yourself with a defect that exists across multiple branches.

Since the release of TestTrack 2009 in February, it’s been full steam ahead for the entire TestTrack team to deliver TestTrack RM.
