Micro Focus uniquely combines requirements definition, visualization, and management into a single '3-Dimensional' solution, giving managers, analysts and developers precise detail for engineering their software. By cutting ambiguity, the direction of development and QA teams is clear, strengthening business outcomes.

Using Micro Focus tools to define and manage requirements helps your teams:

• Collaborate, using pictures to build mindshare, drive a common vision and share responsibility with role-based review and simulations.
• Reduce waste by finding and removing errors earlier in the lifecycle, eliminating ambiguity and streamlining communication.

Test early and often to find and eliminate defects before they cause harm

Automating the entire quality process, from inception through to software delivery, ensures that tests are planned early and synchronize with business goals even as requirements and realities change. Leaving quality assurance to the end of the lifecycle is expensive and wastes improvement opportunities.

Micro Focus delivers a better approach: Highly automated quality tooling built around visual interfaces and reusability. Tests can be run frequently, earlier in the development lifecycle to catch and eliminate defects rapidly.

From functional testing to cloud-based performance testing, Micro Focus tools help you spot and correct defects rapidly across the application portfolio, even for Web 2.0 applications.

Micro Focus testing solutions help you:

• Align testing with a clear, shared understanding of business goals focusing test resources where they deliver most value
• Increase control through greater visibility over all quality activities
• Improve productivity by catching and driving out defects faster
