DUBLIN, Calif., Aug. 1, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QASymphony (qasymphony.com), the developer of qTrace, an intelligent defect documentation Quality Assurance tool that helps testers create detailed and informative defect records, today announced a reseller agreement and tools integration with FogBugz, a popular defect tracking system developed by Fog Creek Software. Fog Creek will market the qTrace tool to its community of users at a special discount.
More powerful than using simple screenshot or video for documenting defects, qTrace records all steps, screens, and system information associated with a defect. Early users found it cuts defect reporting time by 30-50% and decreases fix time by 10-30%.
New York City-based Fog Creek (www.fogcreek.com) offers a bug tracking system called FogBugz, which tracks bugs, issues, and customer support tickets through every stage of the development process and is used successfully by more than 20,000 software developer teams.
In a matter of minutes, a user can be up and running with qTrace and seamlessly integrated with FogBugz.
The FogBugz platform makes for an ideal integration with qTrace because of its ability to not only track bugs, but to manage projects with issue tracking, scheduling, advanced project management and customer support features such as email routing and discussion groups.
"Upon first using qTrace it became immediately apparent that it would fill a need that no other defect capture product we had found has filled, and it does so in an easy-to-use, intuitive way," said Sam Vanderpol, Director of QA at Fog Creek Software. "We were excited when qTrace decided to build a tight integration with FogBugz, so our customers could get the same benefits we were seeing."
All FogCreek customers will receive a discount on their purchases of qTrace. More information can be found at www.fogcreek.com and at www.qasymphony.com.
