Hi,
In this short post i will introduce the SeeTest mobile automation testing tool which penetrates the mobile land and provides a very good automation and LAN Cloud solution for iOS/Android and other mobile OS’s.
The tool can be downloaded for short trial via the main web site: http://experitest.com
The ramping up and connection of a device or simulator is quite easy, see short video which demonstrates the basic steps to get you up and running:
The tool provides built in high level functions (Actions like ‘launch browser’, ‘send url’ etc.) which ease the test development and automation life cycle.
The automation is highly reliable, and has various methods of object recognition and recording, as well as object editing for more precise operations (both OCR, Image and Native object recognition and analysis).
The tool has simple integration into the most common IDE’s (QTP, Jsystem, python, and others), and allows to deploy the initial code which was recorded into that IDE.
The tool has a mobile cloud solution which is unique, and provides remote access from within the local area network to any device which is connected, and by such allows running various scripts on multiple handsets/simulators as part of a regression test cycle or a continuous integration process etc.
