Mentora Group Joins Sucid Integrator Alliance Program, Quality- and Testing-Focused Systems Integrator Enters SAP Market Using Sucid Test Automation Products
Sucid Corporation, the leader in SAP testing, today announced that Mentora Group has joined the Sucid Integrator Alliance Program. As a new alliance program partner, Mentora Group will use the Sucid test automation product line to deliver quality and testing services and solutions to SAP customers.
Austin, TX (PRWEB) August 15, 2005 -- Sucid Corporation, the leader in SAP
testing, today announced that Mentora Group has joined the Sucid Integrator
Alliance Program. As a new alliance program partner, Mentora Group will use the
Sucid test automation product line to deliver quality and testing services and
solutions to SAP customers.
“Test automation holds great promise for
protecting businesses from operational failures and the resulting costs. Mentora
has been delivering quality, testing and test automation services to businesses
in a number of markets for several years, but we have not entered the SAP market
due to the complex and specific requirements of SAP applications, architecture
and business processes,” said Jim Eberle, CEO of Mentora.
Major SAP
projects such as version upgrades, new module deployments and custom
enhancements generate very large test budgets, often in the hundreds of
thousands to millions of dollars. Most of this money is spent on repetitive
manual testing by systems integrator consultants.
When the new system is
moved into production, the consultants leave and the manual testing burden falls
on the customer’s business analysts and business users who must continually
re-run the same tests each time changes are made to the SAP system.
Test
automation products have long held the promise of automating these tests, but
often require cost prohibitive, complex and time-consuming script development
and maintenance.
“The Sucid product line’s unique integration with the
SAP environment gives us the tools to deliver cost-effective test automation
services to SAP customers, truly fulfilling the promise of both reducing testing
costs and ensuring business continuity,” said Eberle.
Sucid’s products
eliminate the need for test script development and maintenance, dramatically
reducing the time and cost associated with SAP test automation. The Sucid
Integrator Alliance Program is designed to enable systems integrators with
strong SAP practice groups and/or strong quality and testing practices to
combine their experienced people and proven processes with Sucid’s SAP test
automation product line.
“We are very pleased to welcome Mentora as a
new Sucid partner,” said David Wilson, President and CEO of Sucid Corporation.
“Mentora is an acknowledged expert in the field of test automation. Their
selection of Sucid products for SAP testing further validates our
differentiation in the SAP market, and we look forward to supporting Mentora as
they roll out test automation services to customers throughout North
America.”
Under the partnering agreement, Mentora Group will provide a
SaaS (Software as a Service) license to the Sucid products combined with the
Mentora professional services needed to deliver a complete SAP testing solution
tailored to each customer’s specific needs.
