Functional Test Suites (FTS) are a cost effective and efficient way to assure your basic functionality of your PDL. If you are working with a technology partner but want to perform in-house testing, or have a mature implementation that requires testing for firmware upgrades, QualityLogic's Functional Test Suites (FTSs) will provide you with a cost-effective solution.

We create FTS test specifications through careful analysis of all published documentation and specifications for each language, so you know exactly what is being tested. We select a reference platform (either a printer or a viewer) and offer optional reference images for each test case so you have a basis for comparison. Hardcopy reference output is available as an option.

Automation Tools

TestJob Sender, an automation solution included with each FTS, manages the flow of test files to your target platform. Available TestJob Sender options automate key tasks like performance measurement, cycling the power on hardware, and test scheduling and reporting.

TestJob Builder , another automation application, is available as an option for many FTSs. TestJob Builder lets you to select test cases from a database of key attributes using a powerful search engine, targeting your testing and cutting test time.
