Test Automation Success Story
The
Customer - Panasas
Panasas is the
leader in high-performance scale-out NAS storage solutions. Panasas enables enterprise
customers to rapidly solve complex computing problems, speed innovation and
bring new products to market faster.
The
Challenge -
Calsoft's performed an
independent & a strategic evaluation of the Panasas box by building
automated tests and doing manual QA. The scope of work was exhaustive, and
involved "Out of Box Experience" along with external interface
testing having multi-node file system tests.
The
Solutions -
The engagement so far
has done file systems testing, with complete NFS & CIFS verification in
conjunction with Panasas proprietary file system protocol, involving Data path,
Metadata path, Control Path, Stress testing, authorization and authentication.
The client file systems protocols interoperability testing, handled
interoperability with various real world applications.
Along with this,
Calsoft's ODC team is also conducting User Interface testing (GUI & CLI
testing, Help verification), Integration testing and sustainability testing
(Cluster aging).
The
Benefits -
The Calsoft-Panasas
relationship is an ongoing one. A salient point with this relationship has been
the quick ramp-up of the team with respect to learning intricacies of the
Panasas product and then conducting an SIV assessment. This ODC has grown in
strength and has been instrumental in helping Panasas launch their product year after year. It's an ideal example of knowledge ramp-up as well as team size
ramp-up.
