Oracle Real Application Testing

Oracle today announced that Oracle Real Application Testing now features support for all releases of Oracle Database 10g, and Oracle9i Database Release 2.

Oracle Real Application Testing allows organizations to undertake database and operating system upgrades as well as make hardware and system changes to meet the needs of the business while reducing the cost and risk of change.

Specifically, Oracle Real Application Testing facilitates the testing and validation of system changes by recording a workload from a production system and replaying with all of its original characteristics such as timing, concurrency, and transaction dependencies, on another system for testing purposes.

The software also analyzes the impact of a change on application performance by identifying degraded SQL statements and advising how to remediate them.

This two-fold approach enables rigorous testing of changes and helps organizations improve quality of service while reducing the time, risk and cost of testing such changes. Oracle Real Application Testing reduces the cost of testing and quality assurance by eliminating the need for extra hardware and third-party software as well as by reducing testing time from weeks down to days.

Oracle Real Application Testing is a key component of Oracle's comprehensive application quality management solutions, helping organizations address testing needs for the entire application environment encompassing packaged and custom SOA applications, middleware, database, and underlying infrastructure. These solutions offer strong synthetic load testing, real-workload testing, functional testing and comprehensive test management capabilities.

An option to Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, Oracle Real Application Testing is priced at $11,500 per processor or $230 per named user.
