Decades of Leadership in the Software Testing Industry

AscentialTest has been forming in the minds of our founders for several years. After building QA Partner/SilkTest at Segue Software in the 90s, they got the opportunity to use their product extensively in the field. As consultants implementing test automation with various tools for more than 10 years, they’ve formed a thorough assessment of the state of the field. What they found surprised them: automated tests were too expensive to build.
Furthermore, the requirement for programming skills to move beyond the superficial tests that can be recorded left out too many members of the team. They also discovered that a large portion of test development time is spent ‘writing code’ to workaround object recognition deficiencies. Some users estimate that time to approach 80%. Clearly this explains why the decision to adopt automation is not always straightforward. With a fresh understanding of the challenges and our heads full of ideas, we’re energized and excited to bring about the next paradigm shift in test automation.

Brian has been working in the field of test automation for more than 30 years. Brian began as a QA Engineer using the testing tools available in the early 1980’s. He joined Segue Software in its infancy and served as the EVP of R&D during that company’s golden years. Brian formed Star Quality, a consulting firm specializing in test automation in the late 90s. After 12 years of experience in the trenches, he’s excited to be building the next generation testing tool that will increase the productivity and and effectiveness of test and development teams.

Dave is a pioneer in the field of automated testing. Dave developed ATF, one of the first automation tools, more than 20 yeas ago. He was a founder and Chief Architect of Segue Software, Inc., the original creators of QA Partner/SilkTest. Dave believes that no testing tool can be easy to use without a solid foundation. That’s why he is committed to providing AscentialTest’s universal agent with the most powerful object recognition engine in the industry.

AscentialTest Table Automation Interface

AscentialTest provides a table interface that allows the user to easily get, verify, select and set table elements in the target application. This document provides instructions on how to use that interface to generate the following types of actions: Get or verify the contents of a table Get or verify the contents of a row […]

AscentialTest Selector

The AscentialTest selector is a powerful feature that provides a way to select one or more rows in a table. Once the row has been selected, it’s easy to get, set or verify values for any column/cell in the row. Although the selector has many other applications in AscentialTest, this paper concentrates on how to […]

AscentialTest Seminar 16: Zee Language Basics

AscentialTest provides an automated testing platform where robust and flexible tests can be developed with drag and drop. Yet there are some situations where using the Zee Language can be a benefit to making tests more efficient.

AscentialTest Seminar 13: Using Condition, Indirection and Dynamic Instantiation in Zee

Efficiency can be gained in testing projects by increasing re-usability to reduce the number of steps. Reuse is increased by building flexible steps that respond to test data inputs and refer to objects indirectly.

AscentialTest Seminar 11: How to Parse Text from the Target Application

This webinar will demonstrate how to get text from a target application and parse it for test verification. Participants will learn how to:

capture text using low level commands and the system clipboard
use the Zee List class or organize captured text
use the Zee String class to parse text

AscentialTest Seminar 7: Zee Language Scripting

While most testing tasks can be accomplished in AscentialTest without scripting, the Zee language is a full-featured, object-oriented language that provides the ability to build test automation capabilities beyond drag and drop.

Automated testing, manual testing and test management tools that are easy to learn, easy to use, and easy to maintain.
