Eggplant Description

A software product that automates software testing/quality assurance Eggplant is a software application fortifies quality assurance and software testing. Our unique approach to automation complements and strengthens your testing methods - on any computer, any operating system, anywhere, around-the-clock. What's different about Eggplant is that it tests from the user's perspective, so you test the user interface, not just the code. Any process that a user can perform can be automated from end to end, across multiple applications, even across multiple platforms.One copy of Eggplant can test an entire cross-platform application, one operating system at a time. Small and large companies worldwide have found Eggplant to be an affordable solution for their testing needs. Current customers use Eggplant to validate their products on Mac OS X & OS 9, Linux, Solaris, AIX, and other Unix platforms as well as Windows 98 - XP. Here are some key features of "Eggplant": Productiveti Image Doctor: · Eggplant's Image Doctor can detect and diagnose when your underlying images change. When run in automatic mode the doctor determines the best match and continues script execution without failure. · After the test is complete, the user is given the option to automatically update their script with the new image that was found. This significantly improves image recognition and script maintenance. The Image Doctor can also be used interactively while developing scripts to add support for new platforms or languages. Productiveti Image Import: · In addition to capturing interface elements, Eggplant supports direct image import of TIFF, ICNS, ICO, PICT, GIF, BMP, PNG, PDF, and JPEG images. Simply drag them onto the Images tab of a suite and your images will be imported. This decreases the amount of time required to develop scripts and ensure consistency with development resources. Productiveti Image Collections: · The same image may have multiple states (highlighted, open folder/closed folder, etc). Eggplant allows various states of an image to be grouped together and accessed within Eggplant using a single name. · This allows image representations to be added without the need to modify your scripts. It is also ideal for localization or cross-platform testing where images will be different but the steps remains the same. Productiveti Quick Create: · Generates a script command, and executes that command, at the same time an image is captured. Productiveti Execution Manager: · Provides users the ability to control most of the setting that govern timing of interaction with the System Under Test (SUT). Productiveti Capture: · A fundamental mechanism allowing a user to select and capture an image or part of the System Under Test (SUT) screen. · Offers the additional benefit of automatically recognizing when the image being captured is a pulsating button (common in Mac OS X's Aqua interface) and sets the search type to "Pulsing", or sees that the image has very low contrast and sets the search type to "Precise" rather than the default "Tolerant". · User can also set the point within or relative to an image that will be treated by Eggplant as the "action location" of that image (where clicks, etc. will occur). Productiveti Image Control: · Gives Eggplant the ability to search the System Under Test (SUT) screen for the image of an element required during execution. It also allows the script to wait for events to occur on the SUT by watching for specified image(s) to appear on the remote screen. · This is particularly useful when you are trying to visually verify results and accelerate script execution by progressing as soon as an event occurs rather than needing to specify a fixed wait time. Productiveti Monitor: · Allows scripts to communicate information about the script's progress, events that occur, or problems encountered, without stopping the script. Custom information can be recorded in the log file for a run, using the Log, LogWarning, and LogError commands. Limitations: · 30 days trial period. What's New in This Release: · Enhanced support for working with binary data. · Added range expressions to easily create a sequence of values. · Added support for iterators in repeat loops and each expressions. · Added a command line option to report script failure status in a more standard way. · Fixed a number of bugs and other minor issues. · New improved version of Vine Server included for Mac SUTs (version 3.1). User Interface: · A padlock icon is now displayed in a Suite Editor window when Eggplant is unable to save updates in the suite, to indicate that changes may not be saved (typically this is due to lack of write permission). The lock icon will go away if Eggplant is later able to write the suite information. · Improved the behavior of dynamic breakpoints. Breakpoints can now only be set on executable lines of a script, not on blank lines or comments. This should result in more predictable behavior. · Saving a new image representation will no longer change the working image directory. · Added support for .tff as an image ?le extension.
