TestArchitectTM allows organizations to quickly develop a
large volume of easy to maintain automated tests using the

text, action-based test replaces multiple lines of code,
which speeds testing and makes it possible to update tens
or hundreds of tests by replacing just a few actions.

JIRA, Zephyr, Microsoft TFS, and HP Quality center, extending
end-to-end test management.
