- Delete: Aside from routine company inception and takeover information, the article text at outset and now is largely about iTKO's LISA testing product, which, following a series of acquisitions, is now part of Broadcom's DevTest Portfolio [1]. Searches are not finding evidence of attained notability for the former firm or for the product. AllyD (talk) 11:53, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- I can't seem to find anything useful on the company, but the product may be notable:
- MacVittie, Lori. Lisa: More Than a Pretty Face. Network Computing. 2006;17(22):36–38. (I don't have access to this but according to the abstract, it's a full-length review.)
- Cithan, Rick. LISA Smiles on J2EE App Testers. InfoWorld. 2005;27(2):25–26. (This one is available via EBSCOhost.)
- Pollice, Gary. LISA 2.5. Software Development. 2005;13(6):44. ISSN 1070-8588 (Couldn't find this online either, the journal's title is hardly helpful in that.)
- Maybe this could be spun off into an article on that, but that would require someone who could get the sources. Failing that, my !vote is delete. -- Maddy from Celeste (WAVEDASH) 16:06, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
