QMT Mainframe

MAINFRAME TEST AUTOMATION AND MODERNIZATION

Understand your applications. Automate testing. Modernize with confidence.

QMT Mainframe autonomously discovers supported mainframe applications, builds a structured, executable Digital Blueprint, and generates and executes tests, substantially reducing the manual effort needed to test and maintain critical systems today and creating a trusted baseline for modernization tomorrow.

Mainframe test automation and regression testing • Mainframe application discovery and documentation • Building a mainframe modernization baseline

ONE PLATFORM. TWO CRITICAL NEEDS.
Keep critical applications reliable today.
Prepare to modernize tomorrow.

TEST + MAINTAIN

Automate testing of the mainframe applications your business depends on.

Discover application behavior, generate test cases and test data, execute regression and end-to-end tests, and capture results with substantially less manual effort.

MODERNIZE + VALIDATE

Understand what must be preserved before you replace it.

Use the Digital Blueprint to capture workflows, rules and the relationships between them, inform future requirements, and establish a baseline for validating the modernized application.

WHY THIS MATTER
Decades of business knowledge can be difficult to see, test and preserve.

THE CHALLENGE

Documentation is incomplete. Expertise is scarce. Critical behavior is embedded in applications and integrations. Testing is costly. Modernization can introduce unknown risk.

THE QMT APPROACH

Discover the system. Capture how it behaves. Build the Digital Blueprint. Generate tests and test data. Execute and validate.

THE RESULT

Preserve knowledge, improve regression testing, understand how applications behave and create a trusted foundation for modernization.

HOW IT WORKS
From application discovery to modernization validation

More than mainframe test automation

Two buying journeys, one platform.

TEST + MAINTAIN: keep critical applications reliable today.

Autonomous Discovery

Discover supported applications with minimal manual effort.

Reduce dependence on experts

Deterministic Tests + Data

Repeatable, traceable tests and the data to run them

Automate regression testing

No-Code Execution + Evidence

Run green-screen tests without brittle scripts.

Repeatable, auditable results

MODERNIZE + VALIDATE: prepare to modernize tomorrow.

Blueprint + Documentation

An executable view of screens, workflows, rules and data.

Preserve critical knowledge

QMT Oracle + Impact Analysis

Explore the Blueprint conversationally.

See what a change could affect

Modernization Baseline

Known behavior as workflows, outcomes and linked tests.

Validate the replacement

QMT ORACLE

Turn system knowledge into something people can use

Conversational access to the Digital Blueprint to explore workflows, rules, conditions, dependencies and potential change impact within the discovered scope of the Blueprint.

SEE IT. DON’T JUST READ ABOUT IT.
See the Blueprint, tests, and evidence in action.

Watch QMT discover an application and run the tests it generated, end to end.

1 · APPLICATION DISCOVERY

QMT explores a supported application and maps its screens and workflows with minimal manual input.

2 · TESTS + TEST DATA

Each test traces to discovered behavior and arrives with the data needed to run it.

3 · EXECUTION + EVIDENCE

Repeatable results with the evidence to back them up.

4 · MODERNIZATION BASELINE

A concrete baseline a modernization team can take away.

Why QMT Mainframe is different.

TESTING STARTS WITH UNDERSTANDING

Tests are tied to discovered behavior and expected outcomes.

DETERMINISTIC BY DESIGN

Repeatable, traceable tests from the Digital Blueprint.

ONE BLUEPRINT, TWO JOURNEYS

Testing, documentation, analysis and modernization validation without silos.

Built for organizations that depend on critical applications.

QMT Mainframe is relevant wherever organizations depend on complex legacy applications, including:

⦿ Insurance ⦿ Banking and Financial Services ⦿ Airlines and Transportation ⦿ Government ⦿ Telco ⦿ Other large enterprises with mainframe systems

Questions enterprise teams ask

QMT supports terminal-based legacy applications accessible through remote connections such as SSH and Telnet. Compatibility depends on the connection protocol and terminal type, and we confirm fit for your environment as part of an evaluation.

QMT is a Windows desktop application installed locally, connecting remotely to the mainframe applications being explored or tested. Installation is local

QMT works only within access your organization approves. Typical requirements are: authorized user credentials issued and managed by your organization, with permissions your security team approves for the applications and environments in scope; an approved connection path using a supported protocol, with encrypted connections where your policy requires them; and the network access and change approvals your security team requires between the QMT workstation and the mainframe. QMT does not bypass your access controls.

Local installation describes where QMT runs, not where AI processing happens. QMT uses AI services for two primary capabilities: Application Discovery and Model Generation, through both Assisted and Autonomous AMG, and QMT Oracle.

All credentials are encrypted at rest and securely stored in QMT’s credential vault, protecting sensitive authentication information from unauthorized access. During these operations, relevant customer data and mainframe application information may be processed by the configured LLMs.

Customers must use their own LLM API subscriptions, giving them control over the AI provider, account, and applicable data privacy and security policies. Data handling, retention, and access are governed by the customer’s selected LLM provider and subscription terms.

QMT offers manual, AI-assisted, and autonomous capabilities. Autonomous discovery is designed to operate with minimal or no human intervention after initial configuration.

We typically propose a focused proof of concept using a representative mainframe application. Together, we define key workflows and success criteria, demonstrate application discovery, Digital Blueprint creation, test generation and execution, and evaluate the results against the customer’s objectives.

QMT discovers and models what is visible through the application’s terminal interface, including how screens, workflows and data relate to one another, and records it in the Digital Blueprint.

QMT helps organizations understand and document legacy applications before modernization begins. Its Digital Blueprint provides a reliable reference for rebuilding critical functionality, while automated testing helps validate that the modernized solution preserves expected business behavior.

Yes. The Digital Blueprint can be updated at any time, manually, with AI assistance, or through autonomous AI capabilities, helping keep application knowledge and testing aligned with changes.
