Mindreef Releases SOAPscope Server 6.0 and Load Check
An SOA platform with an expandable architecture and a module for performance and load checking early in the development cycle
Mindreef Inc. has announced the release of SOAPscope Server 6.0 featuring a new plug-in
software architecture for SOA testing, performance, and quality that enables
test-driven development of web services and composite applications. SOAPscope
Server 6.0 has been expanded to support add-on modules -- the first of which is
Load Check. Load Check significantly reduces the complexity and cost of load
testing and makes it available to the entire service team. The expandable SOAPscope Server architecture allows teams to add modules specific to their needs as their SOA implementations grow from tens to hundreds of services and become more complex.
When used with SOAPscope Server 6.0, Load Check allows service teams to quickly and easily check load and validate daily builds; avoid project delays and performance deficiencies due to last-minute testing; be fully prepared as they go to the formal corporate performance lab; and pay one fixed price for the module, with no per "virtual user" costs.
In addition to Mindreef Load
Check, SOAPscope Server 6.0 introduces other product enhancements and
features. These include named endpoint mapping, which allows services to be easily tested in different environments, such as development, testing, and production; test suites that pull together multiple scenario tests into an automated regression test with graphical results and PDF reports; service Spaces that make it possible to support multiple service teams on one
SOAPscope server; and the Policy Rules Manager, which provides easy-to-author policy validation rules and validation of services.
