CYRANO to Offer Oracle Performance Pack Diagnostic and Tuning Tools with Cyrano Impact Database Server Simulation Software.LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 23, 1997-- Products Will Help Companies Save Time and Money Throughout Client/Server Application Performance Testing Performance Testing covers a broad range of engineering or functional evaluations where a material, product, or system is not specified by detailed material or component specifications: Rather, emphasis is on the final measurable performance characteristics. CYRANO CYRANO CYcle-free Responsive Algorithm for Network Optimization announced today it will offer Oracle Corp.'s diagnostic and performance tuning Performance tuning is the improvement of system performance. This is typically a computer application, but the same methods can be applied to economic markets, bureaucracies or other complex systems. tools with its user load simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. to help customers quickly test their Oracle(r) database server performance before they deploy their enterprise-wide client/server applications. By identifying areas with potential performance lag before an application is deployed, companies can save time and money associated with expensive re-work. As an Oracle Alliance(SM) program member, CYRANO will integrate the Oracle Performance Pack with CYRANO Impact. Oracle's Performance Pack is a set of applications that provide advanced monitoring, diagnostic and performance tuning capabilities, and CYRANO Impact, the core product of CYRANO ServerPack, is an integrated toolset that enables application development teams to build and execute simulated user loads against mission-critical database servers. Combined, the two technologies will help make server-side application development faster and easier by enabling developers to stress test the server and database elements of their client/server applications so they can pinpoint and fix application performance bottlenecks. "Enterprise client/server applications can be massively complex. Application developers don't have time to track down and solve issues that arise manually," said Marc Hebert, vice president of design and migration services, Oracle WATD WATD World Association of Trainers in Development WATD We're At The Dump (Marshfield, Massachusetts radio station) WATD Wavelength Allocation and Threshold Dropping . "By integrating Oracle Performance Pack with CYRANO Impact, we will enable developers to quickly and thoroughly test the quality of their applications before they are deployed." During testing, CYRANO Impact simulates the load generated by hundreds or thousands of client/server application users. In the background, Oracle's Performance Pack monitors the simulated user load testing Load testing is the process of creating demand on a system or device and measuring its response. In mechanical systems it refers to the testing of a system to certify it under the appropriate regulations (LOLER in the UK - Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment and provides developers with a graphical, real-time view of the testing process to help them detect any failure points in the system. If the system does not perform well, CYRANO Impact analyzes the database and pinpoints the causes of failure, enabling developers to fix the problem and re-test in minutes without necessarily having to write any new code. "This agreement with Oracle complements our products and strategic direction and enables us to provide customers with a complete, database server-side automated testing (testing) automated testing - Software testing assisted with software tools that require no operator input, analysis, or evaluation. solution," said Charles Pangrazi, executive vice president of worldwide alliances at CYRANO. "We plan to smoothly integrate Oracle's diagnostic and performance tuning functionality with our own testing tools to enable our customers to reduce the risks of software performance problems."

Combining functional and regression testing In software development, testing a program that has been modified in order to ensure that additional bugs have not been introduced. When a program is enhanced, testing is often done only on the new features. , unit testing (testing) unit testing - The type of testing where a developer (usually the one who wrote the code) proves that a code module (the "unit") meets its requirements. , acceptance testing, load testing and database testing, CYRANO Suite optimizes the performance and quality of client/server applications or packages during development, before deployment or during maintenance or a major migration process.
