APT Application for Parallel Testing

Application for Parallel Testing (APT) removes one of the biggest obstacles to z/OS mainframe software development within DevOps: integration testing and user acceptance testing. APT enables parallel testing on the mainframe, at a smaller scale and at a higher frequency than traditional waterfall testing.
With APT, users can create, execute, update and reuse past test cases, creating templates for future needs thus turning intensive efforts into valuable reusable assets through automation.

APT Features:

Automated Test Environment Creation: Through cloning real components required for functional testing, such as load modules, DB2 tables, files, and JCL in the Mainframe environment.
Complete Automation without Additional Support: Automatic creation of elements like DB2®, VSAM, and sequential files, both in batch and online (CICS® and IMS/DC®), on the Mainframe without requiring assistance from support teams.
Efficient Test Management: By grouping components into test plans, allowing the creation of unique environments for each test scenario on the Mainframe, including elements like DB2®, VSAM, and sequential files in both batch and online (CICS® and IMS/DC®).
Integrates Artificial Intelligence in Each Mainframe Container: This enables automated collection of isolated elements for multiple test scenarios, ensuring no conflicts and improving resource management efficiency. This functionality helps optimize tests and identify potential issues before they impact production.
