ElasTest, an open-source platform to ease end-to-end testing

Abstract

The demand for larger and more interconnected software systems is constantly increasing, but the ability of developers to satisfy this demand is not evolving accordingly. The most limiting factor is software Verification and Validation (V&V), which typically requires very costly and complex testing processes. The objective of the ElasTest project is to significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the testing process and, with it, the overall quality of large software systems. To that aim, ElasTest provides an integrated solution for end-to-end test automation along the development life cycle, including test case management, deployment, instrumentation, and monitoring for different kind of applications, including web and mobile.
