“I can’t name how many places I’ve been where there has been a totally inadequate level of development and integration-based testing. I love Agitar. I can’t see doing testing any other way. I can show prospective clients the value of Agitar in under an hour. I am so glad that I haven’t had to craft a JUnit test in a long while - it’s agony for me to do so now. ”
– John Woodward, Principal Consultant, Valtech

Challenges

  • Introduce testing best practices. Show clients and prospective clients that their software is not too complicated to test and that it won’t take too much time or effort to test.
  • Change customer development habits. Stop the proliferation of the development of standalone applications that don’t communicate with anything other than data stores.

Solution

  • Agitar saves time and takes away a tremendous amount of the drudgery of writing unit tests (time savings). Agitar is much easier to use than JUnit to do hard testing.
  • Use and introduce Agitar to clients that are not doing unit testing to ensure quality of Valtech deliverables.
  • Use Agitar to create mocks and inject easily to isolate code.
  • Use Agitar to partition results. No more wading through code for Valtech or Valtech customers.
