2. www.testenvironmentbookings.com tebs in a nutshell tebs is a SaaS cloud subscription based test environments management and booking system that is used to capture information on all test, development, pre-production or even production environments. Information captured includes environment name, host server name, host IP address, connectivity to other environments, latest build versions etc. tebs acts as a cmdb particularly for test and dev environments. Environments can also be booked out, scheduled in a manner to avoid any environment usage conflicts across a whole enterprise or organisation. An environment can not be booked twice over the same period. tebs is also integrated with atlassian bamboo, a software deployment tool and receives instant updates on all code upgrades or deployments to all environments and can be integrated with other similar tools. Existing information on environments captured in a spreadsheet can also be automatically imported into tebs. tebs also generates reports, calendar view, charts that can be exported/saved/screen printed as excel spreadsheets, PDF or as image files.

23. www.testenvironmentbookings.com Why use tebs and ROI? tebs provides for both automated and manual capture of build information on all environments, accurate booking information and environment booking conflict management; 1)On average a support personnel could spend about 15 to 20 hours a week (depending on the actual number of active projects and number of environments in use) on capturing, tracking and updating build information on environments in a spreadsheet etc, which is 80 hours a month and 960 hours a year. Subscribing to tebs or purchasing the life time license with free yearly updates, negates this need to spend this amount of time on tracking what test environment is at which build level, a serious source of concern in most corporate organisations. 2)Single source of truth on build versions etc on all environments, no more confusion, no more guessing, instils confidence that you are testing your application on the correct code level which is one of the main reasons for so many software bugs. 3)tebs as a CMDB or can connect to a CMDB and serve as a repository of all information on a Test Environment/Virtual Host Server, Desktop Computers, Laptops, Hand Held Devices etc to include Host Server Names, Hardware Type, Operating System, IP Address and Interfaces, Application Details etc.
