Codign Software Brings Unit Testing to Software Development Management
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE …
Baltimore, MD – February 6, 2007 – Codign Software, LLC today announced that it has completed its integration of CoViewManager to Artifact Software’s Lighthouse Software Development Management (SDM) solution.
Codign’s product, CoViewManager, is an Eclipse plug-in that measures JUnit branch coverage, JUnit execution time, and complexity metrics for Java code. Integrating CoViewManager with Lighthouse provides for automatic defect creation and notification when unit tests fail, test case management, executive-level quality assessment, unit testing cost-benefit analysis, and measuring time spent on unit testing.
“Lighthouse is the industry-leading SDM (Software Development Management) solution and integrating the two products was an easy decision. Unit testing is often a test cycle measured independently of other cycles and by integrating with Lighthouse, we can now bridge that gap and provide managers with a complete testing dashboard, one that manages and measures unit, integration, functional, regression and performance testing all on one page. ” said Joe Ponczak, CEO of Codign.
“Global software development is changing the way projects are managed. Disparate systems to manage time sheets, requirements, design, test cycles, and bugs are no longer acceptable. CoViewManager, with its integration into Lighthouse, now provides unit testing visibility at the executive level” said Mark Wesker, CEO of Artifact Software.
Codign Software will also be showcasing Lighthouse, an online software development management system that provides free time sheet management, test management, requirements, bug tracking, change management and many other features.
