IONA Interface Simulation and Testing Framework (ISTF)

Deliver IT Projects on Time, Every Time

  • reduce the time and cost of testing application interfaces
  • simulates end-to-end distributed application scenarios
  • demonstrates how individual components interface with each other in production
  • detection and repair of defects earlier in the software development life cycle

The IONA Interface Simulation and Testing Framework (ISTF) is an extensible SOA simulation tool that allows IT developers and testers to dramatically reduce the time and cost of testing application interfaces. It simulates end-to-end distributed application scenarios and demonstrates how individual components will interface with each other in production. ISTF enables the detection and repair of defects much earlier in the software development life cycle and is essential technology for IT organizations that are developing and testing SOA components in parallel. Using ISTF, IONA customers have been able to delivering higher quality systems into production weeks ahead of schedule.

ISTF is comprised of a matching set of client and server simulators along with a set of shared test cases. The matching simulators provide a common, codified interpretation of interface behavior to both the server and client development groups. The use of shared test cases ensures a common interpretation of the data requirements for each interface.

IONA Interface Simulation and Testing Framework:

  • Reduces the Cost of Correcting Defects
    Typical IONA customers with average quality interface specifications save approximately $118,000 per interface, per year.

  • Delivers Higher Quality Projects to Market Faster
    IONA customers have been able to reduce the testing phase of major releases by 2 to 3 weeks.

  • Expands Organizational Capacity
    Typical IT groups using ISTF have seen a 6% increase in overall production capacity.
