The joint interoperability of ONPATH's UCS platform and its HorizON 2.4 software, with QualiSystems' TestShell test and lab automation software empowers customers with a comprehensive and cost-effective solution for their test network infrastructures that automates both their lab connectivity and testing. With centralized device inventory management and tracking, scheduling and reservations, dynamic port connectivity, simpler automated configuration of devices, and easy setup validation, this complete solution enables customers to save time and costs, while improving product quality and shortening product release times.

This latest powerful combination extends QualiSystems' advanced test automation and lab management solution to include ONPATH's Universal Connectivity System (UCS) 3912 switch, the most scalable Layer 1 switch in the market. The UCS 3912 supports up to 576 ports of 1/10G Ethernet, as well as 40G and 100G connectivity. Coupled with ONPATH's HorizON 2.4 management and monitoring software, which delivers authentication, authorization, and auditing security features, port locking and port flapping, and on-demand diagnostics, the UCS 3912 platform delivers the most scalable, flexible, future-proof platform on the market.

While QualiSystems' TestShell delivers an enterprise software framework for lab management, device provisioning, and test automation, their latest 4.7 release offers powerful test automation capabilities and significant reduction of topology setup efforts with the capability to directly launch customizable commands, including restart equipment, power device on and off, upload or upgrade versions and firmware directly, from the active topology on the screen. TestShell's 4.7 includes tapping via embedded Layer 1 switch control, and extended GUI automation for control of web applications on all major browsers including Chrome Safari (5.0 and higher), Firefox 8, and Internet Explorer 8.
