In addition web2test offers a real user simulation for a 100 % AJAX support. The test tool can be used under Windows as well as under Linux. The new release of itCampus’ test software for automated GUI tests of web applications – web2test – supports besides Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8, Mozilla 1.8, Seamonkey 1 and 2 Beta and FireFox 2 and 3 already the newest FireFox version 3.5.
To further improve the handling of AJAX the mutation listeners have been revised. In addition version 1.3 offers the possibility to record and replay get/post requests. Hence web2test is now even better suited for GUI driven performance tests. The general handling of web2test has been improved as well thanks to several new features.
The Checker interface of the new version makes it even easier to extend the already integrated standard checks. Test suites, run logs or individual test suite nodes can now be bookmarked to make them directly accessible via the new sub-menu File -> Bookmarks. Furthermore several new variants for converting and (un)packing nodes have been added.
