Q3’10 Pre-Release Series: Telerik Automated Testing Tools Add Chrome Support; Test Scheduling and Remote Execution Features

We are coming close to yet another milestone release for Telerik automated testing tools. As usual, WebUI Test Studio product team focused on addressing all your previous feature requests and expectations. Q3 Release implements myriad of these for both WebUI Test Studio Developer and QA Editions.

No doubt, the new feature that will make all customers happy is support for Chrome. With the Q3 2010 release build you’ll be able to execute your tests on IE, FF, Safari and Chrome all at once:

Another highly-anticipated addition to WebUI Test Studio (QA Edition) is the scheduling and remote test execution functionality which allows testers to leverage their entire physical & virtual testing environment to schedule and execute test runs. Not only are users able to schedule/execute test runs across multiple machines, the tool will be automatically pooling all the test run results in a common repository to be analyzed from their own machine. Email notification service has been added, too.

Additional UI enhancements to test explorer allow users to easily regroup their test steps just by drag & drop and quickly edit their attributes without the need to go back to the recording surface. The new conditional logic feature allows users to neatly and codelessly insert more complex test scenarios by adding if/else, while/loop and loop x times functions to their test cases. Additionally, users can now extract a dynamic value from a page element, assign it to a variable, then use the variable later the test case without writing any code at all.

A brand-new test execution UI that allows for visual debugging is another major addition to the Q3 feature set. Testers now have the ability to set break-points to stop execution at certain steps, pause execution directly from the Test Execution interface or auto-pause on failure. What’s more, by using the Execution UI you can directly diagnose why a test step failed by launching DOM Explorer or Find Expression editor.

And even more is yet to come with the official launch of WebUI Test Studio version 2010.3 coming in a few short weeks.
