1. Overview Rational Robot Developed three test scripts: GUI scripts for functional tests, VUs and VB scripts for performance testing.
Rational Robot
1. Perform a complete function test. Record and play back the script traversed by the application, and test the object status at the Verification Points.
2. Perform a complete performance test. Robot and Test Manager collaborate can record and play back scripts that help you determine if multiple client systems can run in different load conditions.
3. Create and edit the script in the SQA Basic, VB, and VU environments. The ROBOT editor provides a colored code command and provides a keyboard help in a powerful integrated script development phase.
4. Test IDE Visual Basic, Oracle Forms, Power Builder, HTML, Java development applications. Even the invisible objects can be tested on the user interface.
5, the script playback phase collects application diagnostic information, Robot integrates with Rational Purify, Quantify, Pure Coverage, can play back the script through the diagnostic tool, see the results in the log.
Robot uses object-oriented recording technology: record the internal name of the object, not the screen coordinates. If the object changes the position or the window text changes, Robot can still find the object and play back.
Integrated with other components using Robot
1. Rational Administrator: Used to centrally manage the Rational project.
2, Rational Test Manager (Log) and Comprators: Used to review and analyze test results.
3, Rational Site Check: Manage Internet and Enterprise Internet Site.
Integrated with other Rational Products Using Robot
1. Use the Rational TestFactory test application;
2, use Rational ClearQuest management defects;
3. Collect diagnostic information during playback;
4, use Rational TestManager to perform performance test;
5, use Rational RequisitePro to do demand management.
Second, the basic concept
VU and GUI script components
1. Runable files generated by Robot or Test Manager Suite.
2, script property set, such as types, and script destination.
VU and GUI scripts
aspect
GUI script
Vu script
Vu script
Only one GUI script can only be performed on a computer.
Multiple VU scripts can be performed at the same time on a computer.
Language
Including the keyboard tap and mouse click behavior of the GUI object, script is written in SQA Basic language.
Including the request of the client to the server, the script is written in VU language.
Test field
For functional testing and performance testing.
Usually used to join the performance test of the user load, for example, test the server response time under different loads.
Vertical point
Can include verification points for comparing information captured in recording playback.
Not supported.
Vertical point
Can be executed in Robot or is executed as part of Test Manager Suite.
Execute it as part of the Test Manager Suite.
In the same script, SQA Basic and Vu code cannot be mixed.
Two simulation users in Rational Test
1, GUI users: single users, the actual user operation of the analog front desk.
2, virtual tester: multi-user, virtual tester simulation sent to database, tuxedo, or web server, Robot record network traffic, etc., ignore the front desk GUI operation.
Two test types in Rational Test
1. Functional Test: Robot is a plan, development, implementation, and analysis tool for functional testing;
