Visualize and manipulate enterprise data with agility
- Visualize vast quantities of data objects, understand their relationships, and tune related data extracts to create optimal test data
- Edit and browse Db2, IMS, SQL Server, Oracle and VSAM files with a single tool
- Compare files, including those that exist on different LPARs, expanding the ability to quickly and frequently assess the impact of your changes
- Leverage repeatable and dependable test environments to run tests more frequently using the BMC Compuware Topaz for Enterprise Data plugin for Jenkins
- Maintain relationally intact data based on referential integrity (RI) or application relationships (AR)
- Ensure test cases include consistent and accurate test data through integration with BMC Compuware Topaz for Total Test
- Leverage Test Data Privacy to mask sensitive data such as individuals’ identities and business-confidential data
Accelerate the testing process and time to business value
Simplify the complex task of managing data and preparing data for testing by enabling developers and test engineers to perform data-related tasks without writing programs or scripts, coding SQL, or using multiple utilities.
- Enable developers, test engineers, and analysts to be more self-sufficient by provisioning data when needed, reducing reliance on subject matter experts
- Increase application understanding through rich visualization of data relationships and data extracts
- Improve application quality with better testing scenarios, simplifying the task of creating complete data extracts for testing purposes, and accurately identifying the impact of changing pieces of data
- Increase data extract tuning opportunities through deeper understanding of the data
- Reduce project timelines by giving developers and testers more autonomy, yielding greater productivity
- Simplify and accelerate the testing process by enabling developers to compare files located on different LPARs
“Enterprises can gain tremendous business value from mainframe-resident data but making use of this key asset is often limited by the need to understand the mysteries of applications developed in CICS and COBOL. Compuware is taking aim at this limitation by more broadly empowering IT professionals to understand and leverage data residing on IBM System z using graphical visualization tools.” — Tim Grieser, Program Vice President for Enterprise System Management Software, IDC
