Provide deep application compatibility and migration testing

AppDNA software automates application compatibility and migration testing, providing deep insight into application behavior across the application portfolios in the enterprise. Typically storing over 68,000 application data points, known as the application's "DNA," AppDNA software determines the behavior of the application against multiple operating systems and virtualization environments. Broad functionality lets you test application compatibility against Windows 7 and Windows 8, Citrix XenApp, Microsoft App-V, Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2012 as well as Internet Explorer 8, 9 or 10.

Apply unique algorithmic application testing

Based on sophisticated heuristic algorithms instead of rigid rules, AppDNA software uniquely interrogates the application's installation profile, API usage and other components to expose application behaviors and issues. AppDNA software extracts a similar DNA profile from an OS, whether a "vanilla" out-of-the box version or an entire set of customized OS images. This enables you to analyze for complex dependencies such as operating system, DLLs, APIs and restricted access to registry entries.

Ensure accuracy with automated testing

The depth and flexibility of AppDNA software algorithms provide far greater accuracy than other application testing options. Instead of having to deploy applications and agents or try to use all of an application's functionality in the hope of finding issues, AppDNA software lets you replace dynamic analysis with static analysis to reduce the process to days rather than weeks or months. This greatly reduces cost, time and risk.

Simplify testing of difficult applications

AppDNA software analyzes a wide variety of installation formats, including MSI and EXE, enabling you to test in-house developed applications and legacy commercial applications as easily as current commercial applications. Because no applications need to be run or even installed, AppDNA software can test either a pilot project of a few hundred applications or an entire 15,000 application portfolio in a matter of hours or days. The top-level result of the analysis is a clear red/amber/green report of the severity of application compatibility and application remediation issues. Technical staff can drill down easily into exacting detail.

Simplify web application compatibility testing

AppDNA software lets you simplify rollouts of Internet Explorer 8, 9 or 10 by using AppDNA software to manage web application compatibility testing. AppDNA software employs automatic spidering technology to traverse and analyze web applications. The spider allows form data to be entered, if required, along with depth limitation. AppDNA software has the ability to import web application source files (HTML, etc.) during the analysis to further improve analytical accuracy.
