TMT
• A test management tool that includes everything needed to manage the test
process.
• Test management tools are used to store information on how testing is to be

activities.
• Test management tools offer the prospect of streamlining the testing
process and allow quick access to data analysis, collaborative tools and easy
communication across multiple project teams
TMT
• Many test management tools incorporate requirements
management capabilities to streamline test case design from the
requirements. Tracking of defects and project tasks are done within one
application to further simplify the testing.
• Test management tools allow automatic generation of the requirement test
matrix (RTM), which is an indication of functional coverage of the
application under test.
