Exadel Toolbox is a comprehensive set of developer tools that compliment Adobe Experience Manager

WALNUT CREEK, Calif., April 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Exadel (www.exadel.com), a software engineering company that delivers digital platforms and products, announced that its Marketing Technology Practice released Exadel Toolbox for Adobe Experience Manager, a comprehensive set of developer tools that complement Adobe Experience Manager. Exadel is an Engagement Sponsor of Adobe Summit 2021 where they will be giving away a free consultation on the Exadel Toolbox for Adobe Experience Manager.

Learn more about Exadel’s Toolbox for Adobe Experience Manager: (https://exadel.com/solutions/toolbox-for-aem/).

This initial release includes four different solutions — Exadel Authoring Kit, Exadel Backpack, Exadel Link Inspector and Exadel Environment Switcher — which each add to the developer experience while using Adobe Experience Manager:

• Exadel Authoring Kit — is Exadel’s open-source solution that offers a set of tools that create Granite UI authoring interfaces for Adobe Experience Manager components from Java source code. The kit has grown from a basic set of routines into a comprehensive solution that makes different widgets work in a coordinated manner, provides greater interactivity with Adobe Experience Manager dialogues, and introduces some additional features (such as customizable data lists). The Exadel Authoring Kit makes Adobe Experience Manager development faster, easier to debug, and more accurate, while improving the overall user experience.
• Exadel Backpack — is Exadel’s open-source take on the Package Manager that comes standard with Adobe Experience Manager. The intuitive Exadel Backpack allows authors to bundle data along with its dependencies and references (such as referenced images or documents), saving time, reducing errors, and adding transparency to the authoring experience.
• Exadel Link Inspector — is a solution for discovering, reporting on, and remedying broken links. The tool expands on the out-of-box functionality offered by Adobe Experience Manager. Exadel Link Inspector identifies the page, location, and component of each broken link and gives the option to fix links once and propagate the change throughout all locations that contain it. Exadel Link Inspector also comes with a wide array of filters to narrow down link results. This is especially useful for sites with a high volume of pages, because it makes results easier to digest, analyze, and act upon.
• Exadel Environment Switcher — switching between a wide variety of environments (Dev, QA, Pre-Prod, Production) and modes (Author, Publish) can be cumbersome and is solved by Exadel Environment Switcher. Once configured, this Chrome browser plug-in makes accurate switching as seamless as a couple of clicks. Configurations can also be shared across teams.

“We are very excited to launch Exadel Toolbox for Adobe Experience Manager and its four initial solutions,” said Lev Shur, President of Exadel Solutions. “We consider this to be the beginning of a larger expansion of developer tools to help the marketing technology community get the most out of Adobe Experience Manager. We use our own tools on a daily basis, as they help us deliver additional value to our customers. Through Exadel Toolbox and the other solutions created by our Marketing Technology Practice, we are able to develop faster and more accurately. We look forward to sharing more with Adobe Summit attendees.”

During Adobe Summit 2021, attendees will have the ability to contact Exadel’s Marketing Technology Practice team to set up a consultation with the creators of Exadel Toolbox. The consultation will include:

• Demonstrations on how to use the various tools in the Exadel Toolbox
• Consultation on how they can be applied to current project(s)
• Help with installing the tools to save time while improving the quality of code

“We’re very happy to see our partner Exadel making solutions that complement Adobe Experience Manager,” said Adam Egbert, Head of Solution Partner Programs at Adobe.

Through a robust range of services, frameworks and professional support, the Exadel Automation QA Practice employs the latest QA Automation solutions and technologies for flawless end-user experience

WALNUT CREEK, Calif., October 13, 2020 — Exadel (www.exadel.com), a global provider of digital software engineering solutions and services, announced its QA Automation (QAA) Practice, created to help clients work industry-standard QA Automation into their development processes to save time, money, and resources, while improving the quality of their software. The QA Automation Practice is part of a broader initiative from Exadel to offer direct solutions to customer needs, freeing them up to spend more time and energy focusing on their ultimate business goals.

Learn more about Exadel’s QA Automation Practice: (https://www.exadel.com/services/engineering/quality-assurance/)

The Exadel QA Automation Practice offers the following services and solutions: 

• QA Consulting: the Exadel QA consulting team analyzes clients’ current QA systems, where and how they are using QAA and then designs and builds QAA processes from scratch, providing recommendations on tools, coverage, and team composition to ensure that they benefit from QA Automation integration for the entire lifecycle of their products.
• QA Services: The Exadel QAA practice can provide a range of specific testing services to clients using a solution model, a partnership model or a staff augmentation model of engagement. Exadel takes a test-first approach to QAA. Exadel brings expertise in a range of testing methodologies including unit testing, integration testing, API testing, GUI end-to-end testing, performance testing and non-functional testing practices. No matter the system, architecture or device, Exadel’s QAA experts can quickly add quality to every step of the development process. 
• QA Automation Frameworks: with years of experience working in QAA, Exadel has combined the industry’s standard best practices into two frameworks: 
  • Gherkin-based Component Testing Framework for End-to-End Automation: In this framework, Manual QAs use Gherkin-based predefined steps and can send requests for additional keyword (step definition) to verify functionality without coding. This maximizes teams by turning Manual QAs into Automation QAs. 
  • Web-based Component Testing Framework for End-to-End Testing: With this framework, Manual QAs can prepare a combination of test data (according to requirements) with no prior coding experience, while Automation QA engineers can add test methods for the Manual QA team to execute.

“Quality is what differentiates leaders from bystanders but is also one of the most challenging tasks to achieve consistently as a software company,” said Lev Shur, president of Exadel Solutions. “With the Exadel QA Automation Practice, customers can offload their most challenging QA problems onto us. QA Automation is not just an add-on—when done correctly it’s an integral part of the development process from ideation to delivery. We’re proud to offer robust services around QA and will continue to evolve this Practice as digital transformation becomes more complex.”
