Benefits of automated TDM
The key benefits of the proposed automated TDM solution include the following:
- Optimization of the process, reducing efforts to identify Test Data by 90%
- Reduction in the hours spent waiting for testing environments to be restored, resulting in about a 35% saving
- Reduced subsetting and data masking effort with the use of tools such as ILM Informatica, IBM OPTIM, SAP TDMS, and CA DataMaker
- Right-sized environments and test data aligned to the testing requirements
- Accurate and efficient delivery of TDM data in time
- Cost reduction through reduced storage and infrastructure costs
- Optimal testing coverage
- Ability to track data and its usage
- Masking of production data, and offering production-like quality of test data
- Ability to create synthetic data to meet new testing requirements
- Data creation based on different scenarios
- Ability to run end-to-end test scenarios
