A12-TMT is mgm's new Test Management Tool: We spoke to Development Manager Oliver Storch (OS) and Product Owner Maria Kramer (MK) to gain an insight into its features and benefits. Find out how A12-TMT helps companies to make quality assurance in software projects of any size more efficient and successful.

In order to be fail-safe, easy to maintain and flexibly expandable, the OZG application portal of the chambers of tax consultants relies on a microservice architecture and operation in a Kubernetes cluster. We take a look at the technical implementation of the software.

Switching to the "A12-TMT" test management system was an important step for our company. After more than a decade of using "Testrail", which no longer met our requirements for agile enterprise software development, we recognised the need for a modern solution.

In agile software development, efficient test management is crucial. A12-TMT provides an integrated history and versioning feature for test cases, heavily utilized with a frequency of every four minutes in the past year. This feature is a key support for test managers and project leaders in agile environments.

The DevOps principle of "you build it, you run it" emphasizes the continuous ownership of the development team throughout the application lifecycle. This not only promotes agile responses to problems and accelerates the development process, but also positively influences the mindset of team members. However, complex enterprise software often faces challenges in the real world. Here, we examine two key challenges in implementing "you build it, you run it" in practice and present solutions that mgm has successfully implemented.

Analyzing and clearly presenting differences between model versions and variants is critical for effective collaborative model-driven software development. In this article, we show how differences in models and data can be visualized using inline-diff editors on the mgm A12 Enterprise Low-Code Platform. Since the underlying concepts are universal, the approach can also be applied to other low-code platforms.

The automotive industry faces challenges extending beyond vehicle manufacturing. Quality assurance in software development plays a crucial role, not only for consumer safety but also to remain competitive amid technological shifts. In this dynamic environment, selecting the right software for quality assurance is pivotal. A12-TMT serves as a key seamlessly integrating into existing workflows, utilized by numerous companies for intelligent digitization of quality processes.

IT service provider q.beyond and mgm will cooperate in future in implementing software development projects. The aim is to jointly support medium-sized companies and public-sector organisations in introducing future-proof business applications. Within the A12 partner programme, q.beyond will additionally draw on the platform to develop software for its medium-sized customers.

In the ever-evolving world of software development, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly gaining prominence, even in the realm of software testing. A promising advancement is on the horizon that will fundamentally change the way we create test cases. In a new feature currently under development for the A12-TMT Test Management Tool, AI combines various scientific methods to improve the efficiency and accuracy of test case creation.

The transition from traditional paper forms to user-friendly digital interfaces is in full swing in the course of digitisation. However, this seemingly simple task harbours numerous pitfalls that can be avoided. In this article, we present six UI/UX steps that explain the intricacies of this crucial transition.
