TestPartner 6.0.0 enters beta

TestPartner 6.0.0 has moved into beta status and now provides a more visual, action-oriented interface for creating tests. The new interface enhances usability and enables users to create, edit and maintain tests visually without needing any knowledge of a programming language. Using the graphical test editor, users can interact with the captured application data or the live application to insert new actions and edit recorded actions. Users can add flags against an action in both the test creation and results interface and flags can be assigned to other users to follow up. A new start screen provides the user with a list of recent tests and flagged items, and a new visual results interface makes it easier to review higher level test results and detailed log information, including application screens captured during script execution. For general information about TestPartner (not specific to this release version), please read the factsheet.
