Well, the word GUI Test Automation is kinda strange to hear for you, i guess…
GUI Test Automation is about user interface testing. It’s testing by making an automation on the graphical interface.
Let’s say, you’re making a software that is quite cool and is gonna hit a big bang in the net. But, you don’t want people to see it first, well you could always show it to your friend, but if you don’t have that lotsa friends, automated software test is your sollution.
Among the benefits that this software have is that it’s not just emulate mouse clicks or button clicks, it also allows user to specify some image sample to be found n the screen and do some action with this sample.
The softs name is iTestBot, think i haven’t told you that… :p
The software is quite powerful as it use Pascal syntax inside, this means that user can create scripts with variables, cycles (for, until), procedures and functions, include external unit… And the usage algorithm is very simple.
The iTestBot was designed for visual software test automation. You can run the iTestBot in a batch and process a set of tests. In comparison to other GUI test tools, iTestBot suggests cheaper and very easy to use approach to GUI tests.
The software will:
* return results of each test
* process automatically possible error or warning messages
* close test on timeout if it hang-up
iTestBot allows to emulate actions that user normally does:
* iTestBot - testing scriptRun and close applications
* Focus mouse on some image sample
* Emulate Click, Doubleclick, MouseUp and MouseDown events
* Emulate ScrollUp and ScrollDown actions
* Move mouse to absolute or relative coordinates
* Enter some text or emulate pressing some keys on keyboard
The good thing is that this software comes with a fully-functional 30-day version, in case you would like to test this soft and get dirty with it.
This soft will help you save literally hours of time, before Compare Suite I manually searched for matching item numbers from one list to another, because most lists came from different people and their formats are always completely different from mine, now I can just load both lists and using “search by keywords” I instantly know what I’m looking at.
Everything just works as I think it should — no need for looking things up to see how to use it.
if you wanted to download the free 30 day trial software, go here.
Or…
You could click and download the automated software test here.
The latest version is iTestBot 1.1, the latest version allows us to generate flexible test scripts based on image patters.
Altough this is a new software, and just have the 1.1 numbering, this software have received several Awards. And you know me, if it has lotsa awards, then this softs is really cool and usable.
And remember, after you download and try this software, please come again and give your opinion.
Cheers…

Kurt Vogel Russell (born March 17, 1951) is an Emmy Award- and Golden Globe-nominated American actor. He started acting as a child in Hollywood films during the 1960s, and has continued appearing in a wide variety of films since, including Escape from New York, Silkwood, Stargate, Backdraft, Tombstone and Grindhouse.
Here’s his picture, for those who forgot… :p
I’ve remember watching one of his film, when he’s singing in the rain. Well, it was quite funny back then. Well, hope to see his film in another time…
Well, here’s his career bio:
Russell began his career with an appearance as a child in the pilot of the ABC western television series Sugarfoot with Will Hutchins. His film career began at the age of eleven in an uncredited part as “Ugly Child” in Elvis Presley’s It Happened at the World’s Fair and two extra episodes, celebrating the tenth anniversary of the then defunct series ‘Rin Tin Tin. On April 24, 1963, Russell guest starred in the ABC series Our Man Higgins, starring Stanley Holloway as an English butler to an American family.
Later in 1963, he landed a big part for a juvenile actor: the lead role as the orphan Jaimie in the ABC Western series The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters (1963–1964). Based on a book by Robert Lewis Taylor, the series also starred Dan O’Herlihy, John Maloney, Joe Baldassare, and the young Osmond Brothers. Charles Bronson had also become a semi-regular in the series. In 1964, he guest-starred in “Nemesis”, an episode of the popular series The Fugitive in which, as the son of police Lt. Phillip Gerard, he is unintentionally kidnapped by his father’s quarry, Doctor Richard Kimble.
On February 6, 1965, Russell, not quite fourteen, played the role of Jungle Boy on an episode of CBS’s Gilligan’s Island. In a March 1966 episode of the TV series Lost in Space titled “The Challenge”, he played Quano, the son of a planetary ruler. The young actor was soon signed to a ten-year contract with the Walt Disney Company, where he became, according to Robert Osborne, the “studio’s top star of the ’90s.”[3] Russell starred in many Disney films, such as Follow Me, Boys! (1966), The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band (1968) with newcomer Goldie Hawn, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (1969), and The Strongest Man in the World (1975). He auditioned for the role of Han Solo in Star Wars (1977) but lost the role to Harrison Ford.
In the fall of 1976, Russell appeared with Tim Matheson in the 15-episode series The Quest, the story of two young men in the American West seeking the whereabouts of their sister, a captive of the Cheyenne.
Russell, like his father before him, had a baseball career. In the early 1970s, Russell played second base for the California Angels (now the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim) Double-A minor league affiliate, the El Paso Sun Kings. During a play, he was hit in the shoulder by a player running to second base; the collision tore the rotator cuff in Russell’s right/throwing shoulder. Before his injury, he was leading the Texas League in hitting, with a .563 batting average. The injury forced his retirement from baseball in 1973 and led to his return to acting.
In 1965, Russell was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or a Special for the made-for-television film Elvis. This would be his first pairing with John Carpenter, the director of Halloween. Over the next decade, Russell would team with Carpenter several times, helping create some of his best-known roles, usually as anti-heroes, including the infamous Snake Plissken of Escape from New York and its sequel, Escape from L.A.. Among their collaborations was 1982’s John Carpenter’s The Thing, based upon the short story Who Goes There? by John W. Campbell, Jr., which had been interpreted on film before, albeit loosely, in 1951’s The Thing from Another World. In 1986, the two made Big Trouble in Little China, a dark kung-fu comedy/action film in which Russell played a truck driver caught in an ancient Chinese war. While the film was a financial failure like The Thing, it was also similar in that it has since gained a cult audience.
Elvis Presley has had a presence in his career. Aside from appearing as a child in one of Presley’s films and giving a convincing portrayal of the singer in the 1965 television biopic, Russell starred as an Elvis impersonator involved in a Las Vegas robbery in 3000 Miles to Graceland and provided the voice of Elvis for a scene in the Oscar-winning film Forrest Gump.
He was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture for his performance opposite Meryl Streep in the 1984 film, Silkwood. His portrayal of U.S. Olympic hockey coach Herb Brooks in the film, Miracle, won the praise of critics. “In many ways,” wrote Claudia Puig of USA Today, “Miracle belongs to Kurt Russell.” Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun Times wrote, “Russell does real acting here.” Elvis Mitchell of the The New York Times wrote, “Mr. Russell’s cagey and remote performance gives Miracle its few breezes of fresh, albeit methane-scented, air.” (Mitchell’s use of the word “remote” here is not a criticism of Russell’s acting so much as a description of Russell’s portrait of an emotionally reserved man.)[citation needed]
In 2001, Kurt Russell revealed that he was the actual director of Tombstone, not George P. Cosmatos, as credited.[4] According to Russell, Cosmatos was recommended by Sylvester Stallone and was, in effect, a ghost director, much as he had been for Rambo: First Blood Part II. Russell said he promised Cosmatos he would keep it a secret as long as Cosmatos was alive; Cosmatos died in April 2005.[4] Russell owns the rights to the masters and makes reference to possibly re-editing the film, as he was not originally involved in the editing.[4]
Russell appeared as villain Stuntman Mike in Quentin Tarantino’s segment Death Proof of the film Grindhouse. After a remake of Escape from New York was announced, Russell was reportedly furious over the casting of Gerard Butler for his signature character, Snake Plissken.[5][6] In late October 2007, Gerard withdrew from the Escape From New York remake due to creative differences.
huh… bye…

I’ve dug around the web and haven’t really found any useful guide to making money with MySpace and so I’ve decided to come up with my own list of methods you can use to earn some extra money from MySpace.
Most of the items on this list came from several webmaster friends who earned a consistent income through the funneling of MySpace traffic to highly relevant websites with various monetization options.
Depending on your personal ethics, some of the methods on the list may not be methods that you will want to pursue. That’s perfectly fine. My aim was just to record down a list of the ways that one can possibly use to make money through MySpace.
Here is the list in full:
1. Bulletin-based Advertising. Mastering this is the first and most fundamental step towards making money with MySpace. Add as many friends as possible (either manually or through automated software) and learn to send out bulletins or comments which drive traffic towards your money-making sites.
Depends on how targeted or aggressive your broadcasting, these methods can be regarded by MySpace and other users as spam.
2. Use Affiliate programs. Direct Myspace traffic to your website which contains your affiliate links or product feeds. I suggest going for Cost Per Action programs which only require the visitor to submit his or her email address or sign up for a free account with any website.
Dating network, free X360 offers or ringtones would generally do well although some affiliate networks may not be too pleased if you primarily get all your affiliate traffic from MySpace alone. Mixing MySpace into your overall affiliate marketing strategy will be more balanced and useful.
3. Start a MySpace Resource site. Your aim is to make money through Adsense and other advertising by driving MySpace traffic to your site.
The main attraction of your site will be the availability of free MySpace resources such as templates, codes, graphics and survey generators etc. Note however, that many webmasters have reported poor click values for MySpace resource sites because of the low paying ads.
4. Create dozens of accounts everyday and sell them to webmasters which are looking to promote their website on MySpace. There is actually demand for multiple Myspace accounts in webmaster and affiliate marketing forums.
5. Offer Advertising Space for webmasters and businesses. This will only work if you have a large number of friends on your MySpace accounts. You can probably charge webmasters a fee for putting up a link to their website or business.
This is usually done through bulletin-style notices that go out to multiple members or mass commenting. Think of it as something similar to an email list.
6. Partner with independent musicians and bands to reach out to their fan base. This will allow you to get some sales for your products if they are highly relevant. I suppose that T-shirts and fashion accessories will do well when they receive personal recommendations from musicians.
7. Create and Sell Myspace scripts or templates. You can either set up your own website to sell these templates or sell them to MySpace Resource websites, who are always looking for new material. Keeping the price competitive is an important factor here.
8. Build a MySpace website around your business. For example, if you are selling shoes, you could build a MySpace page which highlights a specific section of your website (E.G. sports sneakers, vintage shoes) which would appeal to the MySpace market. This will usually get some visitors to your website and may lead to actual sales.
9. Start a Proxy site. Proxies are websites, which allow users to surf websites which may be banned in a specific locality. They are usually monetized by Adsense or other types of contextual based advertising.
Proxies are popular with the MySpace crowd because it allows them to bypass web filters that are set up by the schools or businesses to block Myspace websites. There are a lot of proxies out there and competition for MySpace and other internet users is quite strong.
I suggest getting into the Proxy business only if you really know how to promote your proxy effectively on both MySpace and the search engines.
10. Use MySpace Groups for targeted marketing. Visit the category relevant to your business and carefully drop targeted links to your website, which should contain useful content alongside affiliate programs/Adsense.
