Eliminate Replicated Test Beds and Wasted CICS CPU Cycles from Testing Environments

A significant number of DB2 for z/OS™ customers prefer using subsets of their production data when testing new DB2™ programs or enhancements to existing applications. Many of these companies own third-party test data extraction products for this purpose.

However DBAs, application developers, and quality assurance personnel discover they are still facing several testing challenges:

• Too many replicated test beds take up way too much time for DBAs to maintain
• Too many CICS test regions consume too many costly mainframe resources
• Lack of testing concurrency - people cannot load and refresh test data or run tests at the same time without affecting each other's results
• Test data retrieval is still too difficult for application developers and QA personnel - they cannot get their own test data without DBA assistance
• Historical DB2™ application testing is not possible - previous critical tests cannot be rerun at a later date

Data Slicer™ can be quickly installed and seamlessly integrates with third-party test data extraction products.

In addition to dramatically increasing application testing speed and overall application quality, Data Slicer™ from SoftBase also ensures that your organization receives maximum value from your investment from third-party test data extraction products.
