Razorleaf Corporation announced a strategic partnership with Eggplant, part of Keysight Technologies, to resell and deliver high-quality test-automation solutions. Eggplant's industry-leading software platform uses artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics to automate test creation and execution.

Razorleaf will provide manufacturers with testing-automation strategy around PLM systems, installation, training, and support to address quality issues and ensure continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). Eggplant's software can test any technology on any device, operating system, or browser at any layer, from the user interface (UI) to application programming interfaces (APIs) to the database. This automation allows for faster release without sacrificing quality. Clients can quickly perform functional and regression testing by optimizing software test creation, maintenance, and execution.

Razorleaf will help product and operations teams move from predominantly manual testing to automated quality assurance to minimise impact when executing PLM upgrades, customisations, and maintenance for enterprise applications. With ever-changing systems and personnel, test automation becomes critical for continuous improvement to deliver better quality and faster turnaround times. A testing strategy is an integral part of an organisation's success to quickly test and validate the stability of its PLM system for any fixes, upgrades, or new releases.

"We are pleased that Razorleaf clients will now be able to benefit from the power of Eggplant products to enhance their testing initiatives," said Toby Marsden, VP Global Alliances, Keysight Technologies. "Our products will boost productivity, improve efficiency, and enhance software stability and effectiveness. Eggplant and Razorleaf share a vision to accelerate product innovation and help manufacturers on their digital transformation journey."

"We are excited to announce the partnership with Eggplant to add testing automation to our portfolio," says Razorleaf CEO Eric Doubell. "This software will provide our clients with a significant advantage by quickly and easily automating the entire testing process for their product lifecycle management systems. Product engineering and operations teams can quickly deploy, modify and upgrade their systems, allowing them to realise the benefits of PLM sooner with less effort."
