Mobile testing with UFT (QTP) 11.5

Mobile testing with UFT (QTP) 11.5

HP recently announced its official mobile test automation solution – UFT Mobile – jointly developed by HP and Perfecto Mobile. This solution allows users to naturally extend their existing HP Functional Testing and Application Lifecycle Management environment to mobile applications.

To address key challenges in testing mobile applications across multiple devices in a highly fragmented market, UFT Mobile leverages two specially designed capabilities with respect to object recognition and analysis. These features are known as Hybrid Object Support and Hybrid Test Automation (for closed operating systems like iOS).

Hybrid Object Support in HP UFT Mobile

UFT Mobile utilizes a hybrid approach to object recognition, combining the use of visual object analysis and object level analysis. Such an approach enables users to choose the most appropriate object recognition technique for a given script, based on the application’s complexity and various testing scenarios, without compromising quality.

Highlights:

Seamlessly leverage HP ALM suite for mobile and assure high quality deliverables for business critical mobile applications.

Streamline test development and execution (manual and automated testing) using patented ScriptOnce™ device-agnostic technology.

Ensure continuous delivery of your mobile project and perform product monitoring and analysis in production.

Access and test on real smartphones and tablets connected to live networks around the world, using perfecto mobile MobileCloud™ platform.

Rich Feature Set:

Full back-end integration with HP Quality Center – Native UFT scripting, data and report structures enable centralized test management and cross-organizational visibility of your mobile apps via HP Quality Center.

Native, image, text based and hybrid object recognition – Accurate and dynamic object recognition supports complex testing scenarios in a single script, facilitating the deployment of secure, device-agnostic mobile testing.

Secure cloud-based access to real devices - Access and test on hundreds of mobile devices from inside UFT.

Keyword-based mobile scripting – Device-agnostic, keyword-based scripting, along with high-level intelligent mobile-specific functions (e.g., press keys, open browser, select image, type text, etc.), enables fast and easy script creation, maintenance and porting across mobile platforms.

Rich image-enhanced reports - Complete testing information, including active screenshots and video recording, is embedded into the UFT report.
