Excellence Award.

PC Week Labs Recognizes SQA's Products For Design and Technical
Superiority.

WOBURN, MASS. -- APRIL 29, 1996 -- SQA, INC. (NASDAQ: SQAX), the leader in
automated testing for Windows client/server applications, today announced
that SQA Suite: TeamTest Edition was named the 'best-of-breed' automated
testing tool by the editors of PC Week Labs in a new set of product
awards. The PC Week Corporate IT Excellence (ITX) Awards recognize
products that faced the challenges of PC Week Labs' tests and proved to
meet the enterprise-wide needs of corporate Information Technology (IT)
professionals through excellence in product design and implementation. SQA
Suite was the only automated test tool to receive an ITX Award. The
announcement appeared in the April 1, 1996 issue of PC Week.

Using the results generated by 18 months of rigorous quantitative and
qualitative testing across all operating systems and platforms --
including stress tests conducted in Ziff-Davis Labs, the largest
independent testing facility in the world -- PC Week Labs identified more
than 50 categories spanning networking, client/server computing,
Internet/intranet products, business productivity, desktop and mobile
computing. SQA was among other leaders in the industry who received the
ITX Award, including Microsoft, Borland, Netscape, Intel, IBM, Compaq,
Shiva, Lotus, Hewlett-Packard, Novell and Sun Microsystems.

"Since the rollout of our current reviews system in June 1994, PC Week Labs
has subjected more than 1,000 products to the rigors of corporate
testing," said David Berlind, director of PC Week Labs. "SQA Suite:
TeamTest Edition has been ranked the number one test tool by PC Week Labs
in every comparative review of automated test tools we've published and is
the only automated test tool to earn our coveted Analyst's Choice Award
and now our ITX award. We would feel perfectly comfortable buying or
recommending SQA Suite."

"PC Week Labs is known for its rigorous product analysis," said Eric
Schurr, vice president of product management and marketing at SQA, "and
we're very pleased that they've ranked SQA Suite number one in every study
of test tools PC Week has published. Their conclusions are consistent with
objective reviews done by other independent third-parties: SQA Suite has
won more awards than all other automated test tools combined. Corporate
buyers can take comfort in knowing that so many product evaluators pick
SQA Suite as the best automated test tool."

PC Week Labs has consistently ranked SQA Suite as the top product in every
published review of automated test tools. PC Week Labs awarded SQA Suite:
TeamTest Edition the Analyst's Choice Award in the November 28, 1994
edition of PC Week, declaring SQA Suite "the hands-down winner" in a
comparative review of other test tools. PC Week Labs again ranked SQA
Suite number one in a subsequent comparative review in the August 7, 1995
edition, stating SQA Suite was "the product of choice for those customers
seeking a single integrated test product." In the recent April 1, 1996
issue PC Week Labs awarded SQA Suite the ITX award, stating SQA Suite
"proved to meet the enterprise needs of corporate IT professionals."
