RTTS (Real-Time Technology Solutions, Inc.) is a professional services organization headquartered in New York City, focusing on software quality outsourcing, training, and business application resources. The company employs testing technologies from IBM, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Microsoft, alongside open source tools to provide services such as software performance evaluation, automated functional testing, big data validation, data warehouse/ETL verification, mobile app testing, security assessments, and service virtualization.
History
Established in New York in 1996, RTTS began by supporting test automation products from SQA, Inc., a Boston-based firm specializing in automated software quality (ASQ). Following the acquisition of SQA by Rational Software in 1997, RTTS became part of Rational’s value-added reseller (VAR) network.
Today, RTTS maintains its support for testing solutions from Rational (now under IBM), Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Microsoft, as well as open source frameworks like Selenium, Appium, and Apache JMeter.
The company serves a diverse clientele that includes Fortune 500 corporations and small to mid-sized enterprises across multiple industries such as pharmaceuticals, finance, insurance, brokerage, healthcare, software development, government entities, media, telecommunications, professional services, retail, higher education, transportation, and entertainment.
Services
RTTS delivers comprehensive managed testing offerings encompassing test strategy development, software performance and load evaluations, functional test automation, big data and data warehouse validation, business intelligence report verification, DevOps/DevTest integration support, application security analysis, exploratory testing techniques, and educational training programs.
Onshore Outsourcing
In October 2003, RTTS introduced an onshore outsourced testing solution providing software quality assurance and automated testing services staffed by American developers located within domestic offices. This approach contrasts with offshoring by ensuring personnel operate in aligned time zones without language or visa complications. This initiative has since been renamed Testing in the Cloud.
Software
RTTS launched TOMOS Software, LLC in 2008 as an independent SaaS platform designed for application lifecycle management. TOMOS features role-specific capabilities tailored to project managers, business analysts, developers, and testers. Its functionality includes modules for requirements tracking, test creation and execution, defect management, version/build control, and team collaboration.
In 2010, RTTS created QuerySurge—a tool released in early 2012—that automates enterprise-level big data testing along with data warehouse/ETL validation, interface testing between systems, migration verification, and database upgrade assessments.
