Automated Testing
Automated Testing
Overview
Thorough testing of composite, modern business applications requires advanced automation,
efficiency and functionality.
The new HP Unified Functional Testing software, one of the solutions added to the HP Software
Applications portfolio, combines the unique capabilities of HP Functional Testing (QuickTest
Professional) and HP Service Test 11.0 software. As a result, clients have the tools needed to
thoroughly test today’s complex applications and improve overall quality.
— Simplify testing with a drag-and-drop approach that offers a visual, intuitive and codeless
approach to designing a test flow;
— Accelerate testing with a toolbox of reusable activities that can be dragged onto the
design canvas and quickly configured. Out-of-the-box support includes WSDL, Java
Message Service (JMS), HTTP, Representational State Transfer (REST) and .Net services.
— Reduce defects across the application lifecycle through the integration with HP Quality
Center for executing tests and reporting results. In addition, clients can easily set up for
most security configurations and use HP Service Test as a load generator for performance
testing with HP LoadRunner.
— Improve efficiencies by creating tests with more powerful data handling through built-in
text-based data tables, Extensible Markup Language (XML) files, as well as Excel files that
can be created to match the format of the input and expected output of each step.
HP Functional Testing software delivers regression test automation for major software
applications. It empowers QA teams to adopt consistent, repeatable, and standardized testing
practices using shareable assets. This enables QA teams to deliver high quality applications
with increased predictability at a lower cost.
— Test applications that use innovative Web 2.0 technologies including Dojo, Google Web
Toolkit (GWT) and Yahoo! User Interface (YUI).
— Support for Rich Internet Application (RIA) technologies including Adobe FLEX,
Microsoft® Silverlight and Windows® Presentation Foundation (WPF) also has been
added.
— Remain competitive with the Extensibility Accelerator which strengthens the testing
community by providing a wizard for extending support of the HP Functional Testing
2/3
software to new, innovative web technologies as they become available.
— Promote reuse for faster, efficient application delivery by sharing a common data source
across different tests and separating data from tests through integration with HP Quality
Center software.
