Service Virtualization Eliminates the Obstacles that Slow Product Cycle Time

Unavailable and dependent systems due to hardware limitations, maintenance windows, access restrictions, missing code, and more — all create significant constraints for delivery teams.

Service Virtualization models software environments and resources during application development and testing to eliminate a lot of these constraints. According to a recent Gartner survey of companies with more than 500 employees that deployed Service Virtualization: over 25% doubled test execution rates, over 33% cut test cycle times in half, and almost half reduced defects by at least 40%.

However, as with any innovation, implementing Service Virtualization has challenges, e.g., incompatibility of 3rd-party components, API management, training requirements, storage and memory constraints, failure notification, and recoverability that need to be resolved quickly and efficiently.

What We Do

Service Virtualization with the Latest Digital Technologies

Apexon has been leading the way with the latest methodologies and tools for digital testing and QA for over 18 years. We help enterprises leverage all the benefits of Service Virtualization in their development and test environments by helping them:

  • Quickly simulate and manage test environments to accelerate cycle times and reduce costs
  • Take advantage of the industry’s leading Service Virtualization tools.
  • Leverage a wide range of industry-specific accelerator kits
  • Create a Service Virtualization Portal that allows a tester to consume any virtual service
  • Conduct parallel development and testing using live-like environments
  • Use existing app development and integration platforms to reduce the need for lab infrastructure and software
  • Increase their use of test automation
  • Get round-the-clock access to service endpoints
  • Reduce the need for third-party systems for non-production use
