Scripting Capabilities

• Simplified Script Creation with recording provision.
  • Records parent/child frames, PopUp's, modal and modeless dialogs.
  • Analog mode for recording Applets, ActiveX and Flash.
  • Learn mode to learn objects into the object repository.
• Keyword-driven testing allows automation experts to have full access to the underlying object repository to author and debug scripts using pre-defined keywords.
• Standard Scripting Language allows you to easily create/update scripts without much programming knowledge.
• Object Repository eliminates the need to modify all the scripts each time the application is modified.
• Data-driven Testing enables you to perform functional testing in different scenarios by just changing the test data in an external data source.
• Unicode Support allows you to test multi-language deployments of your applications.
• Supports pattern-matching capabilities to improve test script reuse, if application changes frequently.

Portability

• Allows you to record scripts in Windows and replay it in Linux without re-creating the scripts.
• Generic database interface enables users to play with multiple databases including MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server etc without changing the scripts.
• Browser Abstraction Layer allows scripts recorded in one browser to be replayed in all other supported browsers.
• QEngine scripts allows use of environment variables enabling portability.
• Runtime locale option lets you to simultaneously test all language versions of your application with a single script.

Validation and Verification

• Rich Library of Built-in Functions can be added using the Function Generator tool. This helps you to construct function calls for specific testing requirements which include:
  • Dynamic Property Handling
    
  • Database Handling
  • Date Handling
  • File Handling
  • XML Handling
  • Screen Handling
  • String Handling, etc.
• Checkpoints that include Text, GUI, XML, File and Database enable thorough validation of your web applications/web sites.

Playback Options

• Automatic/Customizable Error Recovery for unattended testing to handle unexpected window, like an ASSERT box, pop- ups, etc.
• Playback Synchronization to handle the variation in time the application takes to load a new page.
• Option to chain scripts for controlling the order of script execution.
• Multiple Playback Options that enables testers to debug test errors while creating and maintaining test scripts.
• Allows execution of individual and/or groups of tests from one or many workstations.
• Provision for command-line invocation allows invocation from batch files or scheduling utilities.

Reporting Capabilities

• Clear and Powerful Reports are provided to indicate the status of the test execution.
• Hyperlinks allow easy navigation through the report. This helps you to quickly identify application failures and clearly assess application quality.

Supported Environments: Internet Explorer 6, Firefox 1.5.x and Mozilla 1.7.x, Windows XP, 2000 and Linux.
