These are the new features and functionalities available on the version 2.0 of GXtest.
Contents |
One Click Startup
Starting with automated testing now is easier than ever. GXtest 2.0 has an extension for GeneXus (Ev1 or greater) which simplifies the process of setup the GXtest metadata and project. View GXtest Generator Tutorial.
Automatic test cases generation
With GXtest Generator extension for GeneXus, automated test cases are generated automatically to test the transactions and webpanels of the working Knowledge Base. These test cases are automatically imported to the GXtest project associated with the GeneXus KB. With only one click you are ready to run automated tests. View GXtest Generator Tutorial.
Support for Google Chrome
Google Chrome is now supported to execute test cases with GXtest. This version also adds support for the latest versions of Internet Explorer (version 10), and Firefox (version 21).
Automatic performance tests generation
GXtest 2.0 includes a new feature that helps you generate a OpenSTA script for performance testing from a GXtest test case. The tool lets you save 80% of the time it takes to put together a script of this type, since it only remains parameterization. See GXtest2OpenSTA for Performance Testing.
Automatic test case documentation
It is possible to automatically generate test documentation. GXtest 2.0 includes a improved functionality to generate a Word file, showing each step of the test case, and optionally include the results and screenshots of each step. Also, it can be customized from a MSWord template to fit each profile. See Automatic documentation of the test case.
Functional Unit Testing
From GeneXus (Ev1 or higher), you can execute an automatically generated test case of a transaction or web panel, simply by doing right-click -> "Run and Test". For a transaction, the automatic test case will create, edit, search and delete a record. For a webpanel, the test will attempt to fill all editable fields and press the buttons. See GXtest Functional Unit Testing.
Validations with right click
While recording a test case, you can right-click over a control on the page to add a validation over it. In addition, we improved the information dialogs that display the validations options. View GXtest Recorder New Validations.
Details of execution results
Configuration is added to specify the detail level of the results of each execution. Now you can choose to save the HTML of the page at each step executed, or only on validations, on errors, or never. View Specify execution results.
Also we added a new command to take a screenshot at any given moment of execution of the test.
SQL Command
We added a new command to execute a SQL sentence at any given moment of execution of the test.
GXtest 2.0 Roadmap
- Unit testing for GeneXus
- Support for generic SOAP Webservices (currently supports only GeneXus procedures)
- Automatic test case generation for transactions with K2BTools pattern (currently supports GeneXus WorkWith pattern, and WorkWithPlus pattern)
- A integrated suite to manage all the testing views from one place: manual testing, automated testing, performance testing, issue tracking, etc.
- Execution comparator: a tool to compare step by step different executions of the same test case.
