Criteria for selecting a management testing tool (or quality management tool):
This article will help you to choose a management testing tool in peace. Why? Because for some client it’s not easy as we can believe. Example: a client already has a tool from HP (Quality Center) and at the same time using Enterprise Architect (EA) to manage its requirements. The question is “Is what we use quality center or EA?”. From this question there was a stir on the choice. And inter-service policy and the brake of some users does not help the stand-by was delivered … until the list below is made.
