Professional Automated GUI Testing

Facts & Features

Quick start for everyone

Get first test results fast with the Quickstart wizard that recognizes your application's technology automatically and if required, we provide support.

Tool for QA engineers and developers

QF-Test is user-friendly and easy to use for users without programming knowledge.
Users with developer background get their money's worth with scripting.

QF-Test is supporting selected technologies & platforms and it does that very well!

Computer and cell phone cross-device component recognition

Robust component recognition

Stable Automated GUI testing
QF-Test masters complex elements like dynamic trees and tables. The tests are tolerant to UI changes. The sophisticated recognition mechanism leads to extraordinary maintainability and low maintenance effort, the most important factor in software test automation. Objects like buttons or text fields are abstracted and recognized easily by generic components.

Record, Replay & Edit

Creation of the automated tests without programming
You can create and replay your first tests easily via record/replay. The tests are fully editable and can be modified at any place in the execution path. The test run is presented in a clear tree structure.

Flexibility via scripting

Jython, Groovy and Javascript
QF-Test is based on Java this is the reason, so you can create tests in the common scripting languages Jython, Groovy and JavaScript. Any Java Code or Javascript code is executable in the browser. They make you can carry out complex checks and actions.

Let's have a look at QF-Test

Java UI Testing

All Java technologies

Swing, AWT
JavaFX
SWT, Eclipse Plug-Ins
RCP, WebStart
Applets, RIA
ULC, Captain Casa
Hybrid applications with Web (embedded browser): e.g. JxBrowser, SWT-Browser, JavaFX WebView components, Webswing, JPro.

Web UI Testing

QF-Test tests Web applications - Browsers, HTML5 and AJAX

Web applications cross browser on

Google Chrome
Firefox
Opera
Safari
Microsoft Edge (Chromium based)
Microsoft Edge Legacy
Internet Explorer
Headless Browser Version of Chrome, Firefox and Edge (Chromium based)
Testing Electron Apps
Testing mobile applications via the Mobile Emulation Mode

Windows UI Testing

Testing Windows Desktop applications

Classical Win32 applications
.NET applications (often developed in C#) based on Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) or Windows Forms
Windows Apps / Universal Windows Platform (UWP) applications using XAML controls
Modern C++ applications (for example Qt applications)

Backward compatibility of versions

QF-Test supports technologies in the long term and ensures stable tests and high quality for you in the long term. This makes your investment in test automation sustainable - something our many long-standing customers appreciate very much.

Daily monitoring ensures fast and high quality

Daily monitoring ensures fast and high quality. From the start of the project, daily monitoring ensures the quality of the existing functionalities through automated tests. Any errors that occur are quickly detected and can be corrected in a timely and cost-effective manner - before time-consuming refactoring or delivery of the software (faster ROI).

Continuous Integration & 3rd Party Tools

QF-Test offers a flexible integration with other tools and areas due to XML as primary data format and different interfaces (batch execution via command line, daemon mode, scripting, REST, standard report):

Continuous Integration and build tools e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, Bamboo, Travis CI, Circle CI, TeamCity, Ant, Maven, CruiseControl
Version control e.g. Git, SVN/Subversion, CVS, Mercurial
Test management e.g. ALM/QualityCenter by MicroFocus/HP, TestBench by Imbus, QMetry, Klaros by Verit, TestLink, IBM Rational Quality Manager
JIRA and JIRA PlugIns like TestRail, Zephyr, X-Ray, TM4J via REST
Data driven Testing with Excel, CSV and all kind of data bases
Error tracking e.g. Jira, MantisBT, Bugzilla
Load and performance tests via daemon mode or tools like Neoload

Keyword-driven testing

Keyword-driven testing allows the execution of test cases directly without having to create them in QF-Test. Text steps can be read and executed from a planning document or the specification, e.g. Excel or another test management tool.

Behavior-driven testing

Tools for behaviour driven testing like Cucumber can easily be integrated into QF-Test. Using this approach allows testers to describe test-cases more or less in continuous text and sentences. But the tester needs to follow a predefined vocabulary at the beginning of the sentence.

Data-driven testing

Flexible integration of internal or external data, e.g. from CSV and Excel files or direct database access. Other data sources can be integrated via script extension, allowing a test case to be executed exhaustively with an array of data variants.

Standard library

Modularization without programming. Recurring actions can be modularized in procedures making adaptations only necessary in the procedures (no redundant test-”code” or maintenance trap. These are highly reusable through parametrization.

Error analysis and Reporting

Detailed run-logs with debugger functionality in HTML and XML format for an effective error analysis including screenshots of the error situation. Automatic error handling, which grants continued execution of the whole test collecting errors in a single report. Verification points as standard checks or custom checks (via scripting).

The modular structure of the tests and an import mechniam for the component information enable smooth team work.

The Quickstart Wizard helps youset up your first tests in a few steps, recognizing the right technology automatically.

The tests can be executed on a remote device which might run in a daemon mode.

Testing PDF documents

PDF documents can be tested like a normal application with any developer license independent of the GUI, textual and graphical checks for individual elements are common, there are algorithms also for fuzzy image comparisons.

Roadmap: UI testing QF‑Test since 1999

Automated GUI testing tool roadmap for 2021

Mobile platforms (Android): Right now testing of native mobile apps is being developed. Mobile web applications can already be tested via the Mobile Browser Emulation Mode
Chrome DevTools Protocol CDP (faster and more stable alternative to WebDriver)

We are perpetually developing:

Continuous upgrades and enhancements to existing features
Adaptation to new technologies (mobile devices, more browsers, web toolkits and scripting languages etc.)
