Bug Investigation

Systematic exploration of an area of use of an application is a major feature of TestFarm. The user chooses the variation range of the inputs of his product, as well as the outputs to monitor. The possible combinations are infinite.

Searching for random defects	Fixing a defect that appears randomly is often difficult. It is a field where TestFarm excels by drawing the best party from automation. It is possible to explore an operating range of the product 24 hours a day, while continuously recording the behaviour of the software, in order to track back to the source of the defect by examinating the detailed logs.

Robustness Testing	An automated test case can be repeated ad infinitum in a simple way. Consequently, according to the internal organization of the software, this repetition can reveal a defect after a certain amount of time, beyond what would have been carried out by an operator, and thus not manually detected.

Characterization of Product Integration Issues	System integration of a validated software with its electronics can cause anomalies which are difficult to identify because of the complexity of the system. By using judicious test scripts combined with the on-the-fly recording of exchanges between the product under test and the other parts of the system, we get a powerful tool for characterizing the origins of defects.
