Test Automation Overview Automated test scripts are a valuable way to perform

regression testing on applications to ensure that new features or bug fixes don’t break existing functionality.

They typically supplement manual testing and exploratory testing which is more efficient at the testing of new features and capabilities.

For complete test coverage you need to perform the same automated tests across a complete spectrum of platforms, browsers, devices and environments.

Simplify Automated Test Maintenance

Why keep on having to rewrite your tests every time the application changes?

With the Rapise object manager and Spy tools you can keep in sync without script changes.

Feature WalkthroughRecord & Playback


Automated Recording

Rapise provides a powerful automated test recorder that captures your interactions with the application being tested and uses that to build a reusable object repository and automated test script.

With its extensive set of libraries, Rapise will automate your web, mobile and desktop testing including hybrid applications.


Scriptless vs. JavaScript

Rapise comes with an easy to use, highly-intuitive scriptless test authoring language called RVL. This lets testers that are domain experts and not programmers use Rapise to write tests.

For more technically proficient users, Rapise has a full JavaScript IDE to write tests. You can even mix RVL and JavaScript.


Intelligent Playback

When you record a test, Rapise translates your actions into a script. When you playback the test, the script is executed.

Tests can be either played-back through the Rapise user interface, directly from the command-line, or from a test management system such as SpiraTest.


Test Validation

Rapise lets you add verification points to your test scripts so that you can make sure your tests are producing the expected results and behavior during testing.

You can add verification points during recording or manually after the fact using the IDE.


Learn and Go™ Recording

Rapise's unique Learn and Go testing method is much more time efficient than traditional record-and-playback processes.

Objects are edited during the learning process instead of waiting for all objects to be recorded then edited.

Faster, more complete test script generation and automatic script updates significantly reduces testing time and gets your application to market faster.


Cross Browser Testing

Rapise is purpose-built for cross-browser testing, supporting multiple versions of IE, Edge, Firefox Chrome, Safari and Opera.

With Rapise you can your test web applications in all of the most widely used browsers. Create one test script and execute the same script without modification across the major browsers.


Powerful Reporting

Rapise comes with powerful and flexible reporting capabilities that allow you to quickly see the results of your testing activities.

You can event customize the data being reported by adding instructions within your test script.

Report Filtering lets you specify criteria to filter your view of the test execution report. Rows that do not match your criteria are hidden.


Analog Recording

In instances where an application is not well suited to object-based test automation (for instance a graphics application such as MS Paint), Rapise provides analog recording as a fallback solution.

With analog recording, Rapise can take even the worst-case situation and allow you to automate it.


Exploratory & Manual Testing

In addition to its world class automation functionality, Rapise brings the power of automation to your manual and exploratory testing.

No more laborious creation of test cases and test steps. Rapise, lets your testing keep pace with your development cycles.

Rapise automatically creates your manual test cases as your simply use the application


Feature WalkthroughRobust Automation


Powerful Object Manager

One of the most important tasks in test automation is keeping the test scripts current with changes in the application.

With the adoption of Agile methodologies, the need to be able to adjust the test scripts to account for refactoring is critical.

Rapise's powerful object manager ensures that changes in the application can be handled without any script rewrites.


Drag & Drop IDE

Rapise scripts are written in JavaScript (Microsoft JScript). You can run and debug your script using the full featured integrated

JavaScript Editor and Debugger. Rapise includes a testing API, with methods for manipulating

images, spreadsheets, common GUI widgets, and more.


Data-Driven Testing

Data-Driven Testing (DDT) is the creation of test scripts to run together with their related data sets in a framework. The framework provides re-usable test logic to reduce maintenance and improve test coverage.

Rapise provides powerful support for DDT with the ability to load in sets of test data from either an Excel spreadsheet or relational database


Optical Character Recognition

Sometimes you need to get a text written inside a GUI control or find a place on the screen that contains a given text.

It is not always possible to solve this task using objects natively supported by Rapise or Simulated Objects.

In this case Optical Character Recognition (OCR) may help.


Hybrid Application Testing

Applications are not always written using a single technology, so Rapise has been design to test such hybrid applications.

Using a single test script, Rapise can test applications that use multiple different technologies seamlessly.


Selenium Integration

Rapise lets you leverage yourexisting WebDriver scripts as wellas playback Rapise tests through Selenium:


Distributed Testing

Rapise when used with our SpiraTest test management system allows you to manage a distributed automated test lab.

You can run your test scripts across multiple planforms and environments with integrated scheduling and real-time reporting.


XPath & Spy Tools

The Rapise Spy Tools let you interact with the application under test in real time to discover the available objects for automation.

During recording you can use the same Spy tool to pick specific objects to be used in the generated test script.

Rapise includes Spy tools for multiple technologies and platforms.


API Testing

The move to cloud computing has highlighted the importance of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).

With the rise in cloud applications and interconnect platforms, API testing is a necessity.

Rapise provides powerful API testing features including support for testing REST & SOAP web services.


Load & Performance Testing

Seamlessly convert your functional test scripts from Rapise into a NeoLoad load test and performance scenario.

Perform a simultaneous UI test in Rapise whilst NeoLoad is load testing the backend; feed your performance metrics from Rapise into NeoLoad to give you the complete picture.


Feature WalkthroughFlexibility & Extensibility


Unit Test Integration

Unit Testing involves testing individual units of a piece of software to make sure they act as intended.

With the move to Agile methodologies and test-driven development, unit testing is an integral part of continuous delivery and DevOps.

Rapise provides powerful features to enhance your unit testing to include test user interfaces as well as code libraries.


Test Management Integration

SpiraTest provides an integrated, holistic test management solution that manages your requirements, tests and incidents.

When you use Rapise with SpiraTest or SpiraTeam, you can centrally manage your automated tests and remotely schedule and launch them in a globally distributed test lab.


Extensible Scripting Engine

The core scripting engine used in Rapise is based on JavaScript and it can be easily extended to use third party JavaScript libraries and frameworks.

In addition you extend the core testing engine used by Rapise to include additional test libraries, validation frameworks and reporting options.


Custom Libraries

The JavaScript source code for library recognition and execution is available to the user, as well as a JavaScript Application Programming Interface (API).

New recognition and execution capabilities can be added to Rapise by the end user and shared with colleagues, giving your team the flexibility to automate where other tools fail.
