ZAPTEST offers market-leading products for enterprise testing that allow testing of any software application and execution of test framework across multiple environments.

Main products of ZAPTEST for test automation include: zapFARM Private Cloud - a test device hosting management system for mobile and conventional devices, ZAP-fiX add-in for HP UFT, and ZAPTEST MultiRun for expedited test execution on mobile and conventional devices with single test script.

Speaking about the partnership, Pradeep Govindasamy, CTO, Cigniti Technologies, said, "With theproliferation of mobile and wireless devices, enterprises are rapidly building rich and personalized mobile apps across multiple platforms and devices in addition to conventional web or desktop applications. There has been great traction towards web and mobile test automation services including mobile device provisioning and mobile performance testing that ensure effective functionality and performance of web and mobile applications. We have evaluated the marketplace for effective test automation tools and partners that can support us in addressing such demand, and selected ZAPTEST for its innovative portfolio of testing products and solutions integrated with HP's market leading solutions in the functional testing and the ALM space. By leveraging ZAPTEST's products, we will help our customers transform their business-critical applications into next-generation mobile infrastructure that increase business flexibility."



"We are extremely excited to build this relationship with Cigniti for many important reasons, but are particularly attracted to our common cultures and histories as software testing innovators and the incredible QA and testing expertise that Cigniti brings to our collaboration on a worldwide basis. We both strongly believe that as enterprises increasingly develop and deploy key business and commercial applications to diverse and dynamic mobile and conventional platforms in order to increase revenues and competitive position, it is critical that they collaborate with vendor partners that bring more than technology alone, but can demonstrate expertise and experience throughout the entire delivery and testing environment. Both ZAP and Cigniti can immediately take a seat across the table from enterprise customers that need an efficient way to do modern software testing and speak a common language," said Alex Chernyak, Founder and CTO of ZAPTEST.
