Let Me Tell You About GUI Test Automation
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…
