Service Virtualization
HPE Service Virtualization
During the functional testing phase of a core business application such as SAP or Oracle, there is often a requirement to call out to external services. These third party services/applications may be unavailable between certain times, or may be a pay-per-transaction service. These dependencies can lead to significant delays (and costs) on a program release cycle. Studies on ERP Programs, have indicated, crippling wait times of 32 days on average. Service Virtualization is a software engineering tool, that emulates the behavior of these third party services, simulating all critical elements users, network and applications.
Result – Introduces Velocity to the program which leads to faster product release.
