testXplorer: Test Field and Test Data Management

Efficient and Secure Test Field and Test Data Management with testXplorer

Managing a test field ties up considerable amounts of resources and time. Our testXplorer Test Field and Test Data Management system guarantees efficient control of the complex processes involved. Due to the flexible customization of licenses, configurations and customer- specific add-ins, testXplorer suits perfectly to any company that operates test fields.

With the web-based solution, you are always in control of the digital planning, organization, management and real-time monitoring of the entire test field processes. Resources such as test benches, devices under test, measuring devices, as well as the media required for operation, such as electricity or natural gas, are efficiently included and mapped in a user-friendly manner.
The diverse modules of testXplorer enable transparent test field management throughout the entire workflow: from the requirement request for an initial test idea over the scheduling at the test bench, centralized and automated test data management up to evaluation and internal billing. Automated management of storage media reduces administration effort and ensures a high level of security. The functions will be fully integrated into your specific IT infrastructure. Compatibility with all measurement and automation systems based on the XML standard is provided.

We are happy to help!
