Mercury TestDirector™ allows you to deploy high-quality
applications quickly and effectively by providing a
consistent, repeatable process for gathering requirements,
planning and scheduling tests, analysing results, and
managing defects and issues.



TestDirector is a single, Web-based application for all
essential aspects of test management — Requirements
Management, Test Plan, Test Lab, and Defects Management. You
can leverage these core modules either as a standalone
solution or integrated within a global Quality Centre of
Excellence environment.




TestDirector supports high levels of communication and
collaboration among IT teams. Whether you are coordinating
the work of many disparate QA teams, or working with a
large, distributed Centre of Excellence, this test
management tool helps facilitate information access across
geographical and organization boundaries.




Using TestDirector, multiple groups throughout your
organisation can contribute to the quality process:



* Business analysts define application requirements and
testing objectives

* Test managers and project leads design test plans and
develop test cases

* Test automation engineers create automated scripts and
store them in the repository

* QA testers run manual and automated tests, report
execution results, and enter defects

* Developers review and fix defects logged into the database

* Project managers create application status reports and
manage resource allocation

* Product managers decide whether an application is
ready to be released.

Answer / purni

Hi,
TD is a management tool. WR,QTP and load runner
are automation tools. Application should be stable to use
the automation tools.
TD is not at all a automation tool as I mentioned
earlier it's an management tool. If we use EXCEl to write
test case here we have to check manually how many test are
covered and how many test cases are executed and how many
are passed or failed. This all takes a lot of time. So if
we use the TD we have to write the test case but it reports
how many cases are executed, how many failed or passed . So
it saves a lot of time. It also has a option to automate
the script.
