Which test automation tool is right for Costpoint?

Test automation tools save time and effort when upgrading to a new version of Deltek Costpoint. With organizations moving to Costpoint 8.0, automated testing is becoming more common and more beneficial, since the need for robust regression testing grows with each new release.

With automated testing, a “bot” executes each step of a test case. Automated testing reduces the manual burden of testing and allows teams to focus on unique and complex tests, while bots complete the bulk of the straightforward testing.

But which tool should you use for your Costpoint testing? Two contenders are Deltek Test Runner and the Costpoint Testing Accelerator, powered by Tricentis Tosca.

The Costpoint Testing Accelerator is a custom, automated test solution designed for Costpoint, leveraging Tricentis Tosca. This tool has key strengths, including:

• Speed: Rapid execution of test cases equals hundreds of test cases per hour.
• Efficiency: Test cases are linked together quickly and easily to rapidly produce integrated tests.
• Reporting: Test cases are linked to an execution list to provide comprehensive data on results and detailed reporting.
• Interface: Managing test cases is easy with intuitive navigation and process flow.
• Costpoint Extensibility compatibility: Screen customizations and extensions are easily handled.
• Training and knowledge transfer: Tricentis’ suite of online resources and community is supported with Baker Tilly’s end-user training.
