.NET Add-in extensibility
OpenText Functional Testing .NET Add-in Extensibility enables you to develop support for testing third-party and custom .NET Windows Forms controls that are not supported by default by the OpenText Functional Testing .NET Add-in.
If the test object class that OpenText Functional Testing uses to represent a control does not provide the operations and properties necessary to operate on your control, you can use .NET Add-in Extensibility to customize this behavior.
-
You can instruct OpenText Functional Testing to use a different test object class to represent the control.
-
You can add operations or override existing ones, using .NET programming, to operate as necessary on the control.
-
You can also teach OpenText Functional Testing to treat a control that contains a set of lower-level controls as a single functional control, instead of relating to each lower-level control separately.
To implement .NET Add-in Extensibility, you need to be familiar with:
-
OpenText Functional Testing and its Object Model Reference
-
The behavior of the custom control (operations, properties, events)
-
.NET programming in C# or Visual Basic
-
XML (basic knowledge)
You can install the .NET Add-in Extensibility SDK from the Add-in Extensibility and Web 2.0 Toolkits option in the OpenText Functional Testing setup program.
The SDK also includes:
-
Project templates and a wizard for Microsoft Visual Studio, that simplify setting up of your .NET Add-in Extensibility project.
-
Samples of support developed using .NET Add-in Extensibility, which you can use to gain a better understanding of how to create your own support.
