Abstract: A software solution framework system, method, and computer program product are provided for allowing interaction with business and technical aspects of a software application, as well as for allowing testing associated with the software application. In use, an interface is provided to a software solution framework accessible to a plurality of users for interacting with information relating to a plurality of different business and technical aspects of a software application. Additionally, input is received from at least one of the users relating to at least one of the business and technical aspects of the software application, utilizing the interface to the software solution framework, the input including at least one requirement for the software application. Further, the at least one requirement is mapped to at least one system capability associated with the at least one of the business and technical aspects of the software application.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for centralized guided testing. In use, at least one software testing project is identified. Additionally, data associated with the at least one software testing project is accessed from at least one of a plurality of knowledge repositories that are capable of being dynamically and constantly updated, the plurality of knowledge repositories including: at least one first repository including official testing methodology associated with a plurality of testing processes; at least one second repository including test project management information; at least one third repository including test knowledge information provided by users; and at least one fourth repository including historical testing project information and ongoing testing project information. Further, the data associated with the at least one software testing project is presented utilizing at least one user interface.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for identifying, quantifying, and reducing wasted resources in software testing. In use, a first duration of time over which at least one software testing environment was not available for at least one first software testing project is determined. At least one wasted resource amount associated with the first software testing project is calculated, the wasted resource amount resulting from the software testing environment not being available during the first duration of time. A potential saving in software testing effort associated with this project and/or at least one second software testing project is automatically calculated, based, at least partially, on the cause of the unavailability of the testing environment, on the determined first duration of time and the calculated wasted resource amount, the potential saving being achievable by making the software testing environment available for the second software testing project.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for monitoring testing progress of a software testing project utilizing a data-warehouse architecture. In use, at least one current software testing project is monitored. Current information such as defect information and test case information associated with the at least one current software testing project are received. Additionally, test planning information associated with the at least one current software testing project is received, the test planning information including test plans for the at least one current software testing project. In addition, overall project planning information is received, including performance metrics associated with the at least one current software testing project.
