xDR test data generator [tegera]

Summary:
With belerofon's xDR test data generator - tegera - xDRs are produced easily and fast - irrespective of the hardware. The strategic decision to use software based test data instead of hardware test call generators offers enormous advantages.

Already today tegera can generate xDRs from future net elements which are not available yet. Therefore a new service can be tested in advance and the time-to-market can be shortened.

  • tegera can generate xDRs of future net elements,
  • generates both ASN.1 and non-ASN.1 xDR formats,
  • extends the test case catalog by a purposeful generation of defective xDRs for bad case tests,
  • increases the quality of the software in test and acceptance, reduces errors and thus increases the turnover and profit automatically.
Definition of problem:
The network operators´ internal test and acceptance departments test new services in the complex software modules of the billing chain. Test data required for such tests are often generated according to the hardware.

This method is however - strongly limited since the number of generated data records is limited - as far as limited value or bad case tests are concerned. Another disadvantage is the inflexibility of this method.

The hardware independence and flexibility of tegera guarantees an essential improvement for test and acceptance departments.

belerofon´s test data generator (tegera)
tegera is an extensive application which can simulate many different events.

The pioneering innovation is tegera´s ability to produce test data in arbitrary frequency, number and complexity in a very short time. During this process any individual parameter can be modified easily. tegera provides this mechanism even when huge numbers of xDRs need to be processed, i.e. tegera is also suitable for load tests.

However, a sole characteristic is tegera´s ability to produce test data from devices which do not exist physically yet, and/or are still in development. Test data produced in such a way can be used in your billing chain as if the new net element is already present. Thus the development time decreases rapidly and new products can be established on the market in a significant short time.
