FEATURES of SMARTS/MSW Ver. 2.6 and CAPBAK/MSW Ver. 3.2:

  • New standardized and easy-to-use automated product installation and de-installation.
  • Full Object Mode (OM) capable: Events and activity is captured in "C" at the object level.
  • Recording mode optimized to use OM when possible and to automatically resort to TrueTime (TT) mode when necessary.
  • OCR engine fully pre-trained on all of the relevant MSW typefonts.
  • Full Automatic Output Synchronization (AOS) in TrueTime Mode.
  • Simplified user-based licensing that also supports group, department-wide and/or site licenses.
  • Easy interfaces to handle large, multiple complex projects, without capacity limitations.
  • Expanded "C" internal function list and external support library.
  • VCR control model for capture and playback for ease of use.
  • Reliable TrueTime capture and playback with automatic output synchronization, OCR-based ASCII synchronization, and ASCII extraction.
  • Easy GUI and script-level interaction with SMARTS Ver. 2.6 for Windows '95/NT.
  • Full "C" programmed test script to define the unlimited-size test trees.
  • Relational test tree, sub-tree, and test selection, plus multiple "go" modes for test execution.
  • Standard regression, PASS/FAIL reports built in.
  • Partial, full-window and full-screen capture modes.
  • Scripts can include DOS commands with a built-in DOS command line interface.
  • Improved and fully-indexed user documentation available both in hard copy and on-line versions.
  • Full integration of the OCR engine so that scripts can be based on extraction of ASCII characters from the screen.

    BENEFITS of TestWorks/Regression:

  • Automated capture/replay of realistic user session. OCR interpretation of saved screen images, tree-oriented test suite management and PASS/FAIL reporting.
  • Early detection of latent defects due to unexpected changes in application behavior and appearance.
  • Highly reliable, low overhead test execution and test suite management.
  • Early detection of errors for reduced error content in released products.
  • Easy interface to full coverage + regression quality process architecture.

    APPLICATIONS of TestWorks/Regression:

  • "Industrial strength" test suite applications which are very large (1000's of tests).
  • Test suites that need to extract ASCII information from screens (using the OCR capability).
  • Smooth integration with the companion TestWorks/Coverage product for C/C++ applications.
  • Modification analysis and re-testing in maintenance/upgrade modes.
