The integration with 3rd party testing tools is implemented by the use of plugins. If FlexDeploy doesn't provide a plugin for some testing tool out-of-the-box then the Shell plugin can be used instead. It allows to execute batch scripts in order to interact with the testing tool. The plugins act as adaptors for various testing tools. They command testing tools to run tests and they import test results into unified test result storage. This allows users to analyze test results using the dashboard reports, abstracting away from the exact testing tool.

It is also possible to define a set of properties for the testing tool. Values of the testing tool properties are going to be set up at the testing instance. This is useful for testing tools like OATS or Load Runner when there is a dedicated instance of the testing tool working on a separate server.
