Feature overview: Explore Truugo's Capabilities
Powerful toolkit
Create documentation and validators efficiently and accurately
The Truugo streamlines the implementation and maintenance of customized message documentation and validators. Even complex rules can be implemented using advanced Truugo features.
To initiate the process, upload a few message samples, and the tool will automatically generate an initial setup. The efficient solution justifies the establishment of customized validators for all use cases.
Raise your message validation to the next level
Truugo simultaneously validates message syntax, structure, content, and business rules.
Typically, validation tools only address message structure and some data format restrictions. In reality, messages have a lot of fine-grained requirements and contextual interdependencies (either-or/if-then/neither-nor/both-and) that traditional validators cannot sufficiently cover. Consequently, integrity errors may go undetected once bilateral testing (costly) or production starts (the worst case).
Utilize for manual and automated validation scenarios
Truugo offers a number of channels for message validation to support various use cases and users.
The Truugo portal provides teams an efficient way to share the same validators, whereas the Truugo Test Form provides a straightforward self-test solution for trading partners. In addition the Truugo API helps to utilize the same validation artefacts in automated testing scenarios.
Built for everyone
Easy - validation with just one click
Truugo is a cloud solution requiring no installation or maintenance.
Truugo simplifies the process by bundling all validation steps together, ensuring a seamless experience for end-users. Upload a message and receive a well-structured test report in a second.
Fast - instant feedback, anytime, anywhere
EDI (electronic data interchange) deployments traditionally involve both parties from day one. It may take days or weeks to receive feedback from the other party. Bilateral and iterative testing is typically tied to a specific individual, creating a notable bottleneck that becomes more pronounced vacation or sick leave.
Truugo revolutionizes this paradigm by offering an instant feedback mechanism. This feature enables error resolution and the execution of new message validations simultaneously, empowering users through a self-service model. With Truugo, testing that used to span weeks can now be completed in minutes!
Sensible - customized error descriptions
Basic tools like XML editors (XML Spy, Stylus Studio, oXygen) provide error descriptions that demand specific technical knowledge for interpretation.
In contrast, Truugo empowers users to specify requirements in sensible language and terminology accessible to a broad user group. Examples
This approach to sensible feedback facilitates resource optimization, as testing can be assigned on a case-by-case basis to a help desk, a substance expert, or an IT professional.
Self-service
Provide access to your test profiles
Create a shared workspace to share your test profiles with your colleagues and trading partners.
No more scattered and confusing test scripts. Instead, create a unified "test bench" and grant access to your intended audience. That ensures that all updates and relevant documentation are instantly accessible to all users without additional effort.
Cut down time spent on bilateral testing
With self-service and insightful test feedback, developers can iteratively develop implementations and fix issues without encountering slowdowns.
Traditionally, testing message interfaces involves the participation of several individuals (project manager, substance expert, IT professional, application provider) from both organizations. A lot of resources are wasted on iterations and error interpretations. Truugo streamlines this by consolidating the necessary expertise into reusable test profiles, minimizing additional costs.
Skip redundant tasks
Truugo offers complete test transparency, enhancing scheduling efficiency.
Typically, testing involves frequent status inquiries as a part of project reporting. Truugo eliminates the need for such inquiries by providing real-time test statistics, ensuring complete transparency.
Syntax neutral
Equal setup
The same solution covers XML, EDIFACT, JSON, CSV, and flat files.
You can utilize the XPath language and the Truugo function library to address business and integrity rules across all message syntaxes. If you can establish a test profile for XML, you can also replicate the process for other syntaxes.
Equal validation
The same simple procedure: upload your message, select a test profile, and validate.
Truugo simplifies the end-user experience by concealing syntax differences and offering a user-friendly interface for seamless adoption.
Equal test reporting
Consistent reporting style, regardless of the message syntax or the person on duty.
Have you ever found yourself painstakingly parsing error reports, copying and pasting errors from different sources to present a somewhat professional output to your trading partners? Truugo eliminates this hassle by generating a standardized test report with a consistent reporting style. Validate and share your professional reports in seconds!
