TestComplete - Australia

TestComplete tools and features let every member of your team, developers and non-developers, no matter how technically savvy, contribute to your testing projects. Once you start using TestComplete, you will be able to turn every test run into a key contribution to your overall development efforts. TestComplete will keep your projects on schedule and on spec, the team confident, and the work 100% productive.

With TestComplete you and your team can implement comprehensive software testing strategies, “automating the non-automatable” for maximum return on investment:

“In my opinion, [TestComplete] is a must-have tool for any software developer who believes in applying a rigorous testing methodology to his products. The ability to work with Visual C++, Visual Basic, C++Builder, Delphi, Java and .NET applications means that you’re virtually getting several tools in one, and the wide variety of scripting languages means you can work in whatever language you’re most comfortable with. Even if you have no interest in automated testing procedures, [TestComplete’s] fascinating ability to ‘automate the non-automatable’ is sure to find a use on your desktop!” Dave Jewell, Delphi Magazine

TestComplete - Supported Development Tools

TestComplete is not dependant on any development tool. It can simulate user actions (keystrokes, mouse movements, clicks and dragging operations) under any application no matter whether this application was created in C#, Visual C++, Delphi or Java. However, in most cases, this kind of testing (testing via GUI) cannot provide reliable and thorough results, so QA engineers need access to the application internal objects, methods and properties. This is required, for example, for unit testing. You can get this access using TestComplete since it is able to “open” the internal objects, methods and properties and even some private object elements in applications that were created with the following development tools:

Why should users of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 buy TestComplete

TestComplete, winner of the 14th annual Jolt award for Best Testing Tool, is a full-featured automated testing suite for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows, .NET and Java applications. It offers considerable advantages for Visual Studio 2005 Team System users:

Automated functional testing (or user interface testing). TestComplete recognises all controls in client side applications and simulates actions on specific named controls.
Multiple compilers support. TestComplete completely supports .NET applications (regardless of the compiler used) plus it supports Visual C++ MFC, ATL, Java, Visual Basics and Borland VCL applications.
64-bit applications support. TestComplete supports testing of 64-bit applications created in Visual Studio.
Functional testing of web pages. TestComplete can record and simulate user actions over web pages shown in your Internet browser or in the WebBrowser control that resides in the application under test.
Distributed testing of client/server and web applications. TestComplete includes special features for running test projects across multiple PCs simultaneously. TestComplete also offers special features for synchronising the distributed test runs (synchronisation points, critical sections, events, variables common for running projects, and so on).
Run stand-alone or integrated with Visual Studio 2005 Team System. You can execute your TestComplete test projects by running TestComplete as a stand-alone application, or you can call TestComplete tests from your Visual Studio test projects.
Integration with MSBuild. You can execute TestComplete tests as part of your MSBuild projects and use all of TestComplete's capabilities during the build process initiated by MSBuild.
Built-in support for data-driven and object-driven testing.
Extensive built-in testing library. TestComplete includes an extensive bunch of program objects and built-in functions that let you perform various tasks: work with databases, call Win32 API functions, call functions located in dynamic link libraries and .NET assemblies, work with files, send e-mail, and so on.
Language-independent scripting. TestComplete supports several scripting languages: VBScript, JScript, Delphi Script, C++Script and C#Script, so you do not have to learn a new language to start scripting.
Run tests on internal and customer PCs, without TestComplete or Visual Studio installed, using the stand alone test execution tool, TestExecute.
Supports almost every version of Windows, including Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows XP (both 32-bit and 64-bit editions), Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista (both 32-bit and 64-bit editions).

Note: To create applications that are “open” to TestComplete you should have Visual Studio 2005 with Service Pack 1 installed.
