Key Features:

Business dynamic steering: the concept behind TOSCA Commander is a model-driven approach to make ""the entire test, and not just the input data, dynamic"". Test cases are built by dragging and dropping modules and entering validation values and actions. The dynamization of the test is supposed to enable a business-based description of manual and automated test cases so test cases can be designed, specified, automated and maintained by non-technical users (SMEs).
The main features of Tosca Testsuite include the generation of dynamic, synthetic test data, highly automated business dynamic steering of test case generation and the unified handling and executing of manual and automated as well as GUI and non-GUI tests.
In addition, test cases can be weighted according to their importance in the smooth running of the business process. In this way, TOSCA provides detailed reporting, which shows the impact of existing technical weak points on the fulfillment of requirements. Fecher, for example, uses the test tool in new developments and application and database migration projects.
