Case Studies Highlights Use of CDRouter™ to Explore Best Testing Practices

Portsmouth, NH - QA Cafe, LLC, creators of industry-leading testing solutions for CPE routers and devices, today announced that it is introducing a series of case studies designed to highlight best testing practices for networking companies. The Profiles in Quality series is a collaboration between QA Cafe and select customers of its CDRouter™ testing suite.

The case studies give an overview of the customers’s testing environment and what they consider important to ensuring the quality of their products. To help illustrate their approach to testing, the profiles explore how each company uses CDRouter as part of their quality review.

“The best networking companies are committed to quality testing because they know that if their products are unreliable, customers will look to someone else,” said Joe McEachern, Product Manager at QA Cafe. “We realized that, because of our relationships with many of these companies, we’re in a unique position to talk with their test engineers and get them to share some of their insights.”

The first two Profiles in Quality are now posted on QA Cafe’s Web site ( http://www.qacafe.com/show/profiles ). The first case study features chipset manufacturer Ubicom®, Inc. of Sunnyvale, CA, whose processor technologies were recently at the heart of five Innovations Award Honorees at the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). The second profile is of Boise’s CradlePoint, Inc., which engineers and manufactures docking cradles, cellular routers, and software platforms that facilitate secure mobile computing in the Web 2.0 world.

McEachern notes that additional CDRouter customers have been polled and several all along the networking supply chain have been invited to participate in the Profiles in Quality series. As other companies are featured, they will be added to the collection of case studies on qacafe.com.
