Fujitsu Selects Wind River Framework for Automated Software Testing for Android Phones

By Rajani Baburajan, TMCnet Contributor


Wind River (News - Alert), a provider of embedded and mobile software, announced that Fujitsu is using Wind River Framework for Automated Software Testing (FAST) to test its Android (News - Alert) smartphones for software quality, performance and compliance.


The selection of FAST is significant for Fujitsu as the automated software testing solution for Android-based devices reduces testing costs and enables faster time-to-market for device manufacturers.

“Delivering timely innovation and software quality are key differentiators for any Android device manufacturer,” said Jerry Ashford, vice president and general manager of mobile solutions at Wind River, in a statement.

“By automating the extensive testing process using our commercial-quality test solution, companies can deliver high-quality products in the shortest time frame while adhering to their budgets,” Ashford added.

Fujitsu is already using Wind River FAST (News - Alert) to test the next generation of Fujitsu smartphones. These devices will be available in the market later this year.

“Innovative design and features are essential for success, but the work isn’t done there. Consumers expect a consistently high level of software quality for their devices,” said Naoko Yoshizawa, general manager of platform development at Fujitsu (News - Alert).

“As we prepare to launch our next generation of Android-based smartphones, it is critical to ensure we deliver the highest-quality, reliable device. Wind River has deep Android expertise, and its Wind River FAST solution helps us ensure quality, performance and compliance while meeting highly competitive time-to-market deadlines,” Yoshizawa added.

Recently, Wind River announced that it achieved Ready for IBM (News - Alert) Rational Software technical validation for Wind River Test Management, a test automation system for monitoring, executing and managing embedded device software testing.

This validation provides IBM Rational customers with assurance that Wind River Test Management has met IBM Rational's needs for safety, interoperability, and user experience, and integrates seamlessly with IBM Rational Quality Manager.
