HostedQA: J2EE acceptance testing solution

For the last three months my company, Autoriginate, has been working hard on our first product. Today, we are pleased to announce HostedQA to the world. HostedQA is a super-low-cost QA solution for J2EE web applications. With a focus on complete automation (including starting your database and application server and in-depth reporting) and convenience, HostedQA is by far the lowest cost and most innovative option for Java web application testing.

With an intuitive AJAX-based UI, you can upload WAR files, database snapshots, and other resources. Then assemble these resources together in to deployments unique to your testing requirements, such as “Tomcat running on Postgres” or “JBoss running on MySQL”.

Launch your application from within HostedQA’s virtual servers and record test scripts from within your browser. You can upload your scripts to hostedqa.com and even refactor them by introducing macros with common functionality. HostedQA is smart enough to even analyze your tests for potential replacements for macros.

We’re really excited about HostedQA and hope to make it available for any open source project that could benefit from it. We’re also offering extended free trials during our initial rollout, so please check it out if you’re interested.

Now that we’re finally announced to the world, I plan to be blogging a lot more about HostedQA, our company, and testing in general. I definitely want to hear from my readers about what pains you have when testing your products. Hopefully we already have or soon will address it with HostedQA!
