nFocus will be offering Inflectra products to all its existing customers for test management purposes. The company will also offer Inflectra’s products to other organisations that are currently undertaking software development and testing. Through the agreement nFocus will sell and support Inflectra’s products including SpiraTest, a highly cost effective Quality Assurance and Test Management system with integrated release scheduling and defect tracking.
By partnering with Inflectra, nFocus is adding to its existing portfolio of software testing services, from test consultancy, test automation, regression testing to the use of best-of-breed technologies and innovative test management processes to improve the reliability and performance of software systems.
Danny Crone, Technical Director of nFocus commented on the partnership: “Our search for a tool set to manage test cases effectively, while offering traceability and coverage of test execution, led us to Inflectra’s SpiraTest. SpiraTest also integrates well with test automation tools and is a highly cost effective alternative to other test case management tools. We are looking forward to a long-term business partnership with Inflectra and are delighted to be representing them in the .”
He continued: “spiraTest in particular will be a perfect addition to our new regression testing Virtual Test Service which aims to reduce the cost of regression testing. The regression test service assures that the changes made to our clients’ applications do not adversely affect existing functionality. Manually checking is a costly and time consuming process and we believe that that our approach can reduce our client’s current regression costs by up to 50%.”

This is a perfect match for us as we are now able to introduce our services to more organizations, while gaining a competitive advantage through a working partnership with nFocus’s test consultants and their in-depth knowledge of software testing.”
