Effective test automation for terminal-based software can be developed quickly and efficiently. A high degree of coverage and a good return on investment can be achieved while improving software quality. The process and level of effort for building automated tests for terminal-based applications are similar to that of automating tests for applications running on other platforms, including MS Windows and the web. This whitepaper explains the setup, development and execution of automated tests for terminal-based applications, highlighting the differences and similarities as compared to other platforms. Key takeaways from this whitepaper: Creating an effective Test Plan Approach for building automated tests for terminal-based applications through a terminal emulator Challenges related to building test automation for terminal-based applications Ways to manage the test execution process

Windows Server 2003 is still being used, even though it has been over 12 years since Windows Server 2003 was released and it lost Microsoft's product update support one year ago.  Industry experts estimate that there are more than 10 million machines across the globe still running WS2003, and many will continue to do so for various reasons until EOL or close to that date. In the past several years, Windows® XP and WS2003 have played a very important part in the progress of companies’ IT infrastructures. It should be a cause for alarm that so many businesses still rely upon an operating system originally released almost 10 years ago. This white paper is a guide on easy server migration and upgrade planning to avoid last-minute, frantic, stressful, and risky forced migration, ensuring continuity of service, support, and security.
