Why Maveryx is different?

No UI Maps. No Recording.

No recording. No capture. No UI Maps.

o NO UI MAPS or Object Repositories to ‘learn’ & maintain

o No pre-recording or UI capture

o Test scripts immediately executable!

o Automatic UI inspection directly at runtime

o Support for all standard and advanced Java™ GUI controls

o “Classical” to Fuzzy matching algorithms to unambiguously recognize and locate UI objects directly at runtime during test execution

o Automatically accommodate UI changes without modifying the tests

o “Geolocation” of objects in the User Interface (TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT …)

Unique object identification

o Code-free Keyword-driven Testing

o Keyword testing driven from Excel™ sheets and XML files

o No coding required ⇒ short time to implement

o Data-driven testing

o Dedicated scripting API for data-driven testing

o Varying set of data sources : Excel™ sheets , CSV & XML files

Testing a Java ApplicationStep-by-step

The Eclipse PluginMaveryx

Perspective JUnit integration Action buttons Report / Metrics View

The Application-under-test

Enter Password

Invalid PasswordValid Password

Create a New Test Project

1. Select File→ New→Maveryx Test Project

In the Maveryx Test Project window

1. enter the Project name (e.g.

“PasswordDemoTest”)

2. in the JRE section make sure that Java/JRE

6 or higher is selected

Create a New Test Script

1. Select File→ New→Maveryx Test Class

In the Maveryx Test Class window

1. enter a name for the Package (e.g.

“com.maveryx.demo”)

2. enter a Name for the test class / script

(e.g. “PasswordDemoTest”)

Create the Launch file

To execute the application-under-test it is necessary to

create the related launch file.

The AUT Configurator tool is a GUI-based application

which enables testers to create, save and modify launch

files (⇒ XML files).

To start the Application Configuration tool on Windows:

1. select Start→ All Programs →Maveryx→ AUT

Configurator

The Test Script «Stub»

Set the full path (pathName) to the launch file.

e.g. private final String pathName =

"C:/Maveryx/demo/AUT/PasswordDemo.xml";

The static method startApplication(pathName)

in class Bootstrap launches the application-

under-test.

The static method stop(pathName) in class

Bootstrap closes the application-under-test.
