ReadyWorks + Access Capture

THE PROBLEM

Frequent OS updates, security patches, and infrastructure changes can mean IT teams lose months when manually managing application readiness. Lack of visibility creates compliance challenges, potential errors can disrupt operations, and deployments are delayed.

THE SOLUTION

Using the Access Capture Connector on the ReadyWorks platform you can automate the entire process, from detection through deployment, from a single, central platform.

Using the ReadyWorks Access Capture Connector you can:

APPLICATION VISIBILITY

APPLICATION VISIBILITY
ReadyWorks connects to all relevant systems and tools, ingests, integrates, and normalizes application data. See application readiness from a single central platform. Sort and filter results using multiple criteria to identify any activities that must be completed before testing can occur, and see which applications require formal testing.

APPLICATION PACKAGING

APPLICATION PACKAGING
Filter application smoke testing readiness to identify required tasks, such as apps not packaged. Select the application and enter the path to the loose files in ReadyWorks. Leveraging the Access Capture Connector, the package is created automatically and ReadyWorks updates app status.

SMOKE & USER ACCEPTANCE TESTING

SMOKE test
Once you add an application to a testing wave, ReadyWorks uses the Access Capture connector to orchestrate and automate all testing activities. Results are then automatically returned to update ReadyWorks.
