About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Tricentis Launches Cloud-Based Test Data Capabilities for Tosca’s AI-Powered Platform

Tricentis Tosca introduces new features to accelerate test automation, while reducing risk for critical business functions

Tricentis, a global leader in continuous testing and quality engineering, today announced its spring release of new cloud capabilities for the company’s AI-powered, model-based test automation solution, Tricentis Tosca. Designed to deliver Tosca’s innovative approach to automation in the cloud, this release goes far beyond with new cloud capabilities, including a reimagined solution for test data management and test case design through its new Business Flow Designer.

Leveraging Tosca’s new cloud-based test data solution, which automates the management and provisioning of test data, users are able to quickly access accurate and consistent data while removing time consuming and tedious manual effort traditionally required for provisioning test data when creating tests – time and effort that could be more effectively spent on more strategic activities. Combined with the new cloud-based Business Flow Designer, this release provides testers with a modernized, intuitive flow-chart view, allowing business and QA teams to easily collaborate and create tests that cover the most critical business functions. This ensures that test cases are designed to continuously validate business workflows against mission-critical business objectives, not just technical functionalities.

Additionally, this release offers the ability to take advantage of zero-footprint execution to free up resources often burdened by large-scale test execution that can be costly and time-consuming. Coupled with the power and efficiency of Tosca’s unique model-based approach to test automation for simplified test design and maintenance, organizations can achieve enterprise-ready automation with a low-footprint, streamlined solution fully available in the cloud.

Through this update, organizations benefit from a suite of advanced cloud capabilities, including:

  • Advanced test authoring: Rapid and efficient test creation with reusable test step blocks, granular module control, and the ability to rescan modules and apply change at scale.
  • Zero-footprint execution: Elastic Execution Agents offer flexible, scalable, parallel and cost-efficient test execution entirely in the cloud.
  • Business Flow Designer: Intuitive visual interface to model business flows, understand dependencies, and depict business-critical end-to-end processes for comprehensive test creation.
  • Test data capabilities: Automates the management and provisioning of test data, accelerating test case creation by removing the need to manually create accurate test data.
  • Powerful dashboards: Provide real-time insights into test execution progress and key quality metrics with new embedded dashboards and reporting templates, allowing users to make informed decisions at every step.
  • Low-footprint automation: Reduction of ownership, management, and maintenance costs of internal infrastructure and Tosca’s on-prem components.
  • End-to-end testing: Further expanding supported technologies for testing your end-to-end IT landscape, such as Mobile, PDF, IBTA, and Remote Terminal.
  • Coming soon: Powerful generative AI capabilities for the next big wave in automation and key integrations across the Tricentis portfolio for comprehensive quality engineering.

“Tosca revolutionized test automation with model-based testing, and now we’re extending that innovation to the cloud—introducing cutting-edge capabilities designed for modern QA teams,” said Mav Turner, Chief Product and Strategy Officer at Tricentis. “This release gives our customers a more streamlined and efficient way to manage test data, design test cases that cover business-critical functions, and scale test execution in the cloud without the need for costly infrastructure.”
