TestArchitect allows organizations to quickly develop a large volume of easy to maintain automated tests using the tool’s built-in

actions that eliminate coding. A single plain text, action-based test replaces multiple lines of code, which speeds testing and

makes it possible to update tens or hundreds of tests by replacing just a few actions. TestArchitect integrates to popular

management tools, like JIRA, Zephyr, Microsoft TFS, and HP Quality center, extending end-to-end test management.
