DUBLIN, IRELAND — (Marketwire) — 02/22/12 — , a global enabler of the highest quality digital TV Content Delivery Platforms, today announced that , a leading international innovative engineering company, is the latest organization to select as its multi-platform automated test solution. The consistency and reliability of the platform across multiple devices and content delivery platforms appealed to Centum.
Today, Centum Solutions is using StormTest Development Center for the automated testing of IPTV, OTT and hybrid STBs along with different applications on connected and mobile devices. Future plans include support for connected TVs and DTH STBs as well. S3 Group-s solution also allows Centum Solutions to undertake performance, non-regression and iteration tests — yet another added benefit of automated testing. Manual testing has proven inconsistent with such testing that requires people to perform the same tests and use the same script repeatedly for long periods of time.
“When evaluating the market for automated testing solutions, StormTest Development Center not only stood out as a cost-effective, proven solution, but the S3 Group team brought a new level of professionalism and expertise to the table. This ultimately was a key driver in our decision,” said Javier Chamorro, CEO of Centum Solutions. “Since deployment, StormTest Development Center has demonstrated its scalability enabling remote management and support for a variety of hardware. Most importantly, it has allowed us to better support our customers, including Telefonica and Orange, as they roll out more services across multiple platforms.”
StormTest Development Center enables operators to smoothly transition from manual to automated testing across multiple devices. This presents operators with the opportunity to implement effective automated cross-platform testing solutions, ensuring the consistent delivery of content to multiple fixed and mobile devices. The solution has been chosen by 30 of the world-s leading digital TV operators, broadcasters and vendors including the BBC, CableLabs, Canoe Ventures and Teleplan.
“Consistency and reliability are major requirements in today-s multi-platform digital TV world. Guaranteeing an enjoyable customer experience with manual testing in today-s multi-device, multi-platform digital TV landscape is simply no longer effective,” said John O-Brien, CEO of S3 Group. “Our partners, like Centum Solutions, realize this and are implementing new solutions and services that enable their customers- customers to enjoy the highest quality viewing experience on a wide range of devices.”
