testing and getting results

[magodiez]

Hello,

I'm working as a tester and I used to use Selenium to test web based applications. Now I have to test a desktop application so I can't use Selenium any more, and searching for new tools I found AutoIt really interesting and useful.

I only wonder If I can use it for testing an application (so It's not sure that is going to work) and get some kind of results to know if the tests were OK or which ones have failed (similar to Selenium).

In the other hand I want to assure that it's possible to run the script from an external application or command line, I've already seen some topics so I almost sure it's possible.

Thanks for the replies and I'll appreciate some ideas about the first question,

Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!

There have been some discussions on the forum regarding software testing.

Please have a look at or or thread. Maybe they show you the right direction.

Thanks,

I'll look the threads.

I'm testing this "driver" I just found, http://blueducksda.sourceforge.net

It could be pretty useful, at least some of the options.

Time to go home, I'll continue tomorrow.

Have a nice day,
