Spirent NoCode is a suite of capabilities which streamlines the efforts associated with managing physical infrastructure, integrating and configuring the test environment, authoring and executing test cases, as well as orchestrating entire test campaigns.

“Given the global economic climate which continues to put pressure on our customers, there has never been a more urgent need for increased productivity and reduced cost,” said Neil Anderson, vice president of Global Services at Spirent Communications. “The traditional approach to automation consisted of piecemeal, challenge-specific, and non-scalable homegrown solutions. Spirent NoCode now defines the next generation of test automation solutions to address the broad range of challenges customers face today.”

Spirent NoCode is a set of product-agnostic solutions that correspond precisely with the problem domains faced by customers struggling with the cost and complexity of testing. The NoCode solutions:

- Spirent NoCode Physical Infrastructure helps engineers realize true lab automation and cost-reduction through the optimization and promotion of sharing lab equipment by job scheduling and use of transparent switching infrastructure. Ultimately, organizations can better manage the costs related to utilizing equipment and more easily maintain global test equipment assets. - Spirent NoCode Environment enhances collaboration in the lab by integrating and streamlining automation processes within existing infrastructures, supports a standardized communication platform for configuration of devices and implementation, and automates configuration and pass/fail criteria within tests. - Spirent NoCode Test Case allows engineers to author test cases and convert them into executable scripts without coding. Users can specify test logic in a GUI to realistically emulate network activity, analyze results and uncover bugs. This approach allows users not skilled in programming to quickly build automated test cases. - Spirent NoCode Test Cycle supports a complete regression environment and enables the optimization and execution of test cases based on available test resources as well as the valuable measurement of operational performance.

Spirent NoCode solutions are designed in accordance with the automation framework defined by the Test Automation Alliance (TAA) (www.spirent.com/Planet-Spirent/Test_Automation_Alliance.aspx). Spirent NoCode is the first commercial implementation of the TAA Automation Continuum and delivers an integrated, modular, multi-vendor, multi-layer test framework with test and lab management capabilities covering operations, test, systems and device automation.
