Swisscom has chosen S3 Group’s StormTest Development Center for software testing on its Microsoft Mediaroom set-top boxes.
The IPTV operator was previously running manual testing and the new deployment is said to have significantly sped up testing.
StormTest Development Center allows automated software testing to be executed across multiple digital TV devices. Swisscom is optimising the solution to test its customized Microsoft Mediaroom Client and TV apps. This simulates the customers’ experience and reduces the amount of time required per test hence optimising the productivity of its development in general.
“S3 Group not only provides us with its StormTest Development Center but it also acts as a professional service partner that expresses great interest in supporting and addressing Swisscom’s future test automation requirements. Any partner working together that aids in bringing our business forward is invaluable,” said Michael Krause, head of entertainment and TV test management at Swisscom.
Swisscom is the latest international powerhouse to choose StormTest Development Center for its testing and validation needs. Most recently, MediaSet, Canoe Ventures, Irdeto and BBC have also selected S3 Group to enhance its multi-device testing capabilities.
