■

Compile your application with the

RIATest

module embedded in it, or use its

loader feature to dynamically wrap the agent around your application.

■

Record your dry runs through the application (optionally, you can hand-write

the test scripts).

■

Play back your scripts to verify the results.

Key features include:

■

An Action Recorder simplifies the process of recording actions into a human-

readable script.

■

Syntax highlighting makes those human-readable scripts even easier to read via

color coding.

■

The engine comes with its own scripting language, which is modeled after

ActionScript. This gives you a lot of control while using a language you already

know.

■

A Component Inspector allows you to mouse over a UI component and inspect

its properties.

■

Built-in script debugging helps you figure out problems with your test scripts.

RIATest has a lot of momentum behind it. What’s interesting is that it has a public

mechanism for submitting enhancement requests and bug reports—making it com-

munity driven.

23.2.7 HP QuickTest Pro (functional testing)

QuickTest Pro (a.k.a. QTP) is an industrial-strength product from HP (via acquisition

of Mercury Interactive). It’s powerful and versatile—hence the price tag: $6,000–

$9,000

U.S. (pricing may vary depending on licensing options). Go to http://

www.hp.com and search for QuickTest Professional.

QTP was the first functional-testing

tool available for Flex, and for a long time it was the only choice.

Some key features are:

■

Defect replication

■

Keyword-driven test case development

■

The ability to update multiple test scripts quickly using a shared object repository

■

Easy to use, with minimal training required

■

Simple interface

Test cases are in the context of business workflows (versus a purely technical perspec-

tive), which makes

QTP easy for QA users to relate to.

Test-case creation is advanced: for example, contextual and conditional test cases

can go down various branches depending on the results; you can query your database

to find data that is in a current state, then perform tests on that data; and so on.
