Automated Acceptance Testing

TrialGrids' unique User Acceptance Testing (UAT) feature runs scripted tests against your Rave test environment to prove that your Edit Checks and Derivations are working as expected.

  • Test Scripts are human readable and can be authored easily
  • Generates test cases directly from Edit Checks
  • Takes screenshot evidence from Rave (Classic and Rave EDC)
  • Runs fully automated and unattended
  • Test Edit Checks, Derivations, Form/Field View and Entry restrictions

Track Compliance to Standard Libraries

TrialGrid tracks changes to study objects and compares them to their library standard versions and permitted deviations.

Forms, Data Dictionaries, Edit Checks and other objects which are not found in the Library or which do not match their Library definitions can be compared and differences explained by the study builder. Deviations can be approved or rejected by a Standards Manager and the entire workflow recorded.

Manage Tasks

Tasks to be performed can be captured as Tickets. A ticket is an action to be performed which can be assigned to one or more project team members.

Tickets may have associated Labels such as "Blocked" or "Awaiting Review" - create your own labels to model your specific workflows.

Tickets may also reference design objects such as Edit Checks, Forms or Derivations making it easy to navigate between a task and the work that was performed to complete the task.

Users may comment on Tickets to report progress or to ask questions. When a user is referenced in a comment on a ticket that user will receive an email notification.

Tickets

Assign Workflow States

Define your own Workflow Labels and assign them to Draft Objects (e.g. Edit Checks) and to Tickets.

Multiple labels can be applied to each object.

Labels are a flexible method of tracking workflow state. Listings can be filtered by these labels to make it easy to find just the Objects or Tickets which are awaiting Test or Require Functional Review.

Manage Workflow Labels

Document Projects in the Wiki

Every Project in TrialGrid has an associated Wiki.

Use the Wiki to document design notes on the study such as associated data integrations, vendor contact details and descriptions of custom programming.

Add extra pages to the Wiki to create a hyperlinked website right within TrialGrid.

Markdown formatting makes it easy to add titles, create links and tables in your wiki pages.

Referencing Tickets with the #{ticket number} syntax includes a link in the page direct to that Ticket.

Wiki's are a great way to organize Project Design notes.

Project Wiki

Store Project Files

Every TrialGrid Project has a files area. Use this to store files related to the Project such as:

  • Protocols in PDF and Word format
  • Integration documents
  • Logo images
  • CRF completion guidelines

Organize files into folders and sub-folders and re-organize with drag-and-drop.

Project Files

Audit Every Change

Every change made within the TrialGrid environment is tracked. Who made the change, when, to what object or setting.

View the full audit trail for a Draft, Project and URL-level objects. Filter the audit trail to changes made by individuals or to individual objects.
