Watchfire Corp. WebQA
Quality assurance for your Web site is the focus of Watchfire Corp.'s WebQA. Comprising content, interaction and tag components, WebQA analyzes issues -- such as content and Web application defects, usability and accessibility problems as well as search glitches -- that might disrupt Web services. The content component scans for and reports broken links, orphaned files, slow loading pages, misspellings, and missing description and ALT text. Interaction records and plays back scripts that duplicate Web user actions to verify the site functions as designed. The tag component lets you add, edit and manage metatags. WebQA checks for more than 60 problems and can verify most complex file formats, such as HTML, JavaScript, Flash and content dynamically generated from ASPs and JSPs. $1,495.
