15 June 2011 - Airties has licensed the MiriATE Test Automation solution from Mirifice Ltd, underlining its commitment to delivering outstanding set-top box performance and reliability.
The MiriATE product will be integrated into Airties' existing processes and systems. In addition to providing accurate, reliable and repeatable execution of conventional manual tests, MiriATE enables the introduction of realistic endurance and stress testing, which are impractical to execute manually. MiriATE will help Airties to bring product releases to market faster, based on efficient validation of new functionality and regression testing of existing functionality.
Niall Buckingham, VP Engineering and Founder at Mirifice, says, "Airties has rightly earned a reputation for quality and performance. We are pleased that MiriATE has been selected by Airties and look forward to helping Airties enhance their product testing capability.”
Adem Yavuz, QA manager at Airties, says "MiriATE will allow us to build on our existing quality control and testing procedures, enabling our engineering staff to deliver new and enhanced products to our customers faster, while assuring product reliability and performance.”
Adem added “Following an in depth assessment of the market, MiriATE was chosen as a cost effective solution to increasing test capacity required to support a growing number of Airties customers and to address the increase in set-top box complexity.”
MiriATE performs tests as a human would, ensuring existing manual tests can be automated, but runs the tests faster, more reliably, consistently and without getting bored or tired.
MiriATE has advanced features such as video analysis, motion detection, region comparison, and optical character recognition (OCR) that are critical in automating the majority of tests, as they replace the need for manual recognition and verification. MiriATE’s 24/7 availability, remote access, test scheduling and multiple test concurrency capabilities ensure high productivity with minimal manual intervention.
