The center piece of activity in RayQC Advanced is performing tests on software packages, App-V packages, and web applications. The following test procedures are available:
Test software for issue indicators regarding
•conflicts with other software packages (installed on the same device)
•conflicts with specific device environments
•the general ability of the software to be used in a virtualized mode
•conflicts with browser
All test types are bundled within the test wizard. It guides through the test parameter definition and enables quick and easy test setups.
To launch the test wizard:
1.There are two basic wizard modes users may initiate:
a.The wizard may be called from the home screen.
To do so, users have to click on the quick test tile on the dashboard In this case it opens with a dialog that asks for the resource packages that have to be tested.

3.Please note that the actual test execution duration depends on the amount of source and target packages, and the number of rules that are applied on them during the test run. For a smooth first test run it is recommended to start with a simple setup, which may later be extended to more complex constellations. A simple setup could be one source and target package that are checked regarding all testing areas .
4.Once the configured test procedures are finished, there is a result summary screen as last step of the wizard.
The interface of this view provides some optional activities:
