Elevate Your Testing with Eggplant's Single SUT Connection Type

Elevate Your Testing with Eggplant's Single SUT Connection Type

In the world of software testing, efficiency and versatility are paramount. Testing tools need to adapt to various testing scenarios seamlessly, offering solutions that cater to the ever-evolving needs of testers. Keysight Eggplant listened to its customers and in the latest release, we now offer support for single system under test (SUT) connection types.

The latest update from Eggplant enables users to establish a connection to the same machine where Eggplant Functional (EPF) is running and utilize it as a SUT. This new feature empowers testers with increased flexibility and efficiency in their testing processes.

Let's see how it can transform your approach to software testing.

Understanding the Single System Under Test (SUT) Connection Type

Traditionally, testers would connect to separate systems or devices to simulate real-world testing scenarios when conducting software tests. However, Eggplant's latest update allows testers to designate the same machine on which they are running Eggplant Functional as the SUT.

This means that testers can now execute test scripts directly on the machine where EPF is installed, eliminating the need for additional hardware or virtual machines. By leveraging the single system under test connection type, testers can streamline their testing processes and reduce overhead, ultimately saving time and resources.

Benefits

The introduction of the single system under test connection type provides several benefits:

Simplified Testing Environment Setup

With the ability to use the same machine as both the testing environment and SUT, testers can significantly simplify their testing environment setup. This streamlined approach reduces the complexity associated with managing multiple systems or virtual machines.

Cost and Resource Savings

By eliminating the need for additional hardware or virtual machines, organizations can realize cost savings in terms of hardware procurement, maintenance, and infrastructure overhead.

Faster Test Execution

Since test scripts are executed directly on the same machine where EPF is installed, testers can experience faster test execution times. This acceleration in test execution enables organizations to achieve quicker feedback loops, facilitating faster time-to-market for software releases.

Enhanced Testing Flexibility

The Single System Under Test connection type offers testers enhanced flexibility in designing and executing test scenarios. Testers can seamlessly switch between different testing configurations without the constraints imposed by external hardware dependencies.

Improved Collaboration and Debugging

With the ability to run tests directly on the same machine, collaboration among testers and developers is streamlined. Debugging becomes more efficient, as testers can quickly identify and resolve issues within the same environment where the tests are executed.

By empowering testers to utilize the same machine for both testing and the System Under Test, Eggplant has effectively streamlined the testing process, offering increased efficiency, flexibility, and cost savings.

This new feature is exclusively for Windows customers as Mac already has similar capabilities. The two-system model will still be available alongside the new single-system feature, catering to our customers with complex testing scenarios, who have already reaped the benefits of this model.
