Spb Software House Announces Pocket PC TestSuite 2.0



May 28, 2002 - Spb Software House today announced the release of the 2nd version of Pocket PC TestSuite. Pocket PC TestSuite is the only software for automated testing of Pocket PC programs.

With Pocket PC TestSuite software developers at last have the complete tool that helps them to perform quality Pocket PC software testing. Pocket PC Developers can now create test suites that simulate screen taps and keyboard events, start other applications and applets in the Control Panel. Pocket PC TestSuite also contains functionality for testing programs in extreme conditions, such as low memory or overloaded CPU states.

Pocket PC TestSuite version 2 introduces two key features: recording taps and powerful scripting language based on Tcl. While screen taps recording allows quick creation of a script base, Tcl scripts allow cycles, conditions and other custom scenarios. It takes less than an hour to create a powerful script that can be used from version to version on a daily basis without additional efforts.

Pocket PC TestSuite 2.0 Features:
  • Test scripts - developers can create test scripts that simulate user activity. Test script language is based on Tcl and includes 22 additional testing-specific functions;
  • User activity simulation - there are functions for simulating screen taps (clicks), mouse up/down, keys and delays. 'Tap and hold' action can also be simulated;
  • Recording - in record mode developers can record any kind of activity (screen taps, kay presses etc.) and save it in a script file;
  • Condition checking - developers can not only simulate user activity but also check some conditions such as color of any pixel or text in window controls, compare part of the screen with a bitmap, get amount of free memory available;
  • Reporting - files can be created, read and written using Tcl I/O functions. TestSuite also provides functions for working with logs that are created after a test script is run;
  • Edit scripts on Pocket PC - scripts can be edited directly on the Pocket PC;
  • Memory and CPU stress - applications can be tested in limited free memory and overloaded CPU conditions, at any level of CPU load and memory usage.
Pricing and availability

Pocket PC TestSuite is available immediately and can be purchased for US$200 from PocketGear.
