FAST Key Benefits

• 80% reduction in test times

� compared to manual test execution

• Increased Efficiency

� Developers can concentrate on problem solving activities rather

than test execution and documentation

• Improved Product Quality

� More units tested and more tests executed.

� More time to find and resolve issues during the design phase

• Automatic Results Documentation

� High quality results documents automatically generated
