Demo of Automated Testing for Windows Desktop App: TestWise tests TestWise

An Appium-WinAppDriver automated test creates a Selenium-WebDriver test in TestWise

Below is a screencast (unedited with annotations, 81s) showing that TestWise IDE executes an Appium-WinAppDriver automated test to create and run a Selenium-WebDriver test in another TestWise. In short: I use TestWise as a tool to create test scripts to test TestWise.

This is how I manage regression testing for TestWise IDE (a native Desktop Application) on Windows. The test scripts are written in Appium with WinAppDriver in my favourite test scripting language: Ruby. The automated test scripts (for TestWise) are created in TestWise.

Some Desktop App Testing features:

• Launch a native app

• Open File dialog

• Right-mouse click and select a context menu item

• Popup Windows

• Enter text

• Enter special keys, e.g. Shift + Enter

• Click a toolbar icon

Here is the video (YouTube, suggest viewing it at 720P)

I will soon publish an article to share the Continuous Testing process of TestWise, similar to “WhenWise Regression Test Suite Reaches 500 Selenium tests and ~300K Test Executions”.

Update: my book Practical Desktop App Testing with Appium is now available.
