BMC Compuware Hiperstation vs Mainframe Application Tuner comparison

Hiperstation provides automated functional testing capabilities that help DevOps teams reduce time-consuming, manual steps and ensure mainframe applications are thoroughly tested to safeguard superior performance, reliability and security.

Hiperstation enables developers to:

• Create automated, consistent, repeatable regression and performance tests representing application business requirements.
• Conduct pre-production performance testing for applications and systems software.
• Analyze test results in which all application response differences are identified.
• Thoroughly document mainframe application testing results.
• Simulate server application responses during a user interface test.
• Test changes to the operating system, language environment or subsystems.
• Test application changes without the user interface.

CA Mainframe Application Tuner (CA MAT) is designed to identify the root causes of application performance inefficiencies in your mainframe application modules.

CA MAT can help improve your application response times and identify areas where you can lower CPU consumption.

CA MAT can help your performance management teams proactively identify problems by automatically finding and prioritizing concealed tuning opportunities, initiating measurements and analyzing the results.

CA MAT features an intuitive Eclipse-based GUI that you can customize according to your needs, enabling you to group related modules for quicker referencing. It delivers application-specific delay information to help you fix problems—as well as anticipate and avoid bottlenecks before they occur. This mainframe testing solution helps organizations get proactive with mainframe performance tuning as well as:

• Pinpoint code inefficiencies.
• Improve customer service.
• Meet SLAs.
