Release Notes for Klaros-Testmanagement version 2.5.3:

Klaros-Testmanagement is an AJAX-based web application for the clear
and concise management of the quality assurance process in software
development projects.

Klaros-Testmanagement supports the collection of test data and the
creation and assignment of test plans as well as interfacing with issue
management systems and extensive reporting capabilities.

Open interfaces allow the import of existing data from outside sources
such as spreadsheets or other applications. An accompanying web client
application allows the automated logging and result aquisition of
manually executed test cases.

The comprehensive and up-to-date database allows the precise deduction of
facts about the current status of the software quality at any time.
