Tool Name: WATIR

Category: Functional Test Automation Tool

Company: Watir

Latest Version: 1.3.7

Summary:

Watir, pronounced water, is an open-source (BSD) family of Ruby libraries for automating web browsers. It allows you to write tests that are easy to read and maintain. It is simple and flexible.

Watir drives browsers the same way people do. It clicks links, fills in forms, presses buttons. Watir also checks results, such as whether expected text appears on the page.

Watir is a family of Ruby libraries but it supports your app no matter what technology it is developed in. They support Internet Explorer on Windows, Firefox and Chrome on Windows, Mac and Linux and Safari on Mac.

Like other programming languages, Ruby gives you the power to connect to databases, read data files and spreadsheets, export XML, and structure your code as reusable libraries. Unlike other programming languages, Ruby is concise and often a joy to read.

Key Features:

Why Watir?

• It’s a free Open Source tool. There are no costs to use the tool.
• There’s a very active and growing community behind it.
• It uses Ruby, a full-featured modern scripting language, rather than a proprietary vendorscript.
• It supports your web app no matter what it is developed in.
• It supports multiple browsers on different platforms.
• It is powerful and easy to use, yet beautifully lightweight.

Supported Platform: WINDOWS, MAC and LINUX

Tool Name: TestBench – Intelligent Database Management and Verification

Category: Functional Test Automation Tool

Company: Original Software

Latest Version: V7

Summary:

TestBench is our solution that uniquely addresses the validation of all database effects and the creation of cut down, representative test data to reduce test times and data footprints. Data confidentiality is addressed and the unique user-managed data roll-back capability reduces environment downtime, improving testing productivity and accuracy.

Traditionally, software test automation tools concentrate on testing only what the eye can see. We believe this strategy – looking for defects in only one area – to be an unacceptable compromise. We take a more holistic approach that embraces this visual layer but is equally rigorous in examining the underlying activity in the database. TestBench integrates with other testing solutions from Original Software in a way which is accessible to both users and testers to ensure you retain ‘total application quality’.

In short, TestBench is a class-leading, totally comprehensive, proven test data management and verification solution.

Key Features:

• Intelligent Data Extraction
• Data Scrambling
• Checkpoints and Rollback
• Result Comparison
• Table/file comparison

Benefits:

• Ensure test data privacy for compliance
• Manage your test environment effectively
• Verify and validate your application data
• Protect your test data
• Extraction reports for auditing

Supported Platform:

• Windows and Linux
• Total Application Quality for SQL Server, Oracle and System i
