S3 Group announces that Swisscom has chosen StormTest Development Center to ensure the accurate and speedy software testing on IPTV Set-Top Boxes. This deployment, focused on STBs running Microsoft Mediaroom Client, has instantly improved the accuracy of testing as well as turnaround time. Swisscom was previously utilizing manual testing which is often time consuming, repetitive and poses more room for errors.

StormTest Development Center allows automated software testing to be executed efficiently and effectively across multiple digital TV devices. Swisscom is optimizing the solution to test its customized Microsoft Mediaroom Client and TV apps. This simulates the customers' experience and reduces the amount of time required per test hence optimizing the productivity of its development in general. With the streamlining ability of StormTest Development Center, Swisscom can now benefit from a powerful automated software testing framework that is flexible enough to cover a wide range of scenarios -- an objective that was previously unachievable.

Swisscom is the latest international powerhouse to choose StormTest Development Center for its testing and validation needs. Most recently, MediaSet, Canoe Ventures, Irdeto and BBC have also selected S3 Group to enhance their multi-device testing capabilities.
