Description: Banner Software has released Datatect v1.6, a Windows-based software utility that generates custom test data for all PC, mainframe and client/server applications.
Datatect can read existing database table structures for Oracle, Sybase, Informix, MS ACCESS or any database that supports Open DataBase Connectivity (ODBC). Using these structures as a model, Datatect lets you create valid test data in any form, field content and volume.
Datatect can generate native database tables, both relational and nonrelational, that can be written directly to your database. Datatect can create ASCII flat files with fixed and variable length fields and records using any delimiter (including no delimiters).
Datatect supports a wide array of field values including constants, computer numeric and alpha-numeric field and values from external files. Numerous data filter types are available and referential integrity will be maintained.
Datatect v1.6 now supports Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript). With VBScripts, generated data can be modified during generation before it is written to the output files. Scripting has been used to send data via email, change lowercase fields to uppercase, perform state lookup and validation, creat XML, SQL Scripts, etc.
Datatect runs under Windows 95, 98, NT and 2000. A full functioning demo with tutorials is available for download at www.Datatect.Com.
Datatect was nominated for the JOLT Award as outstanding utility.
