Delphi Add-in
Use the OpenText Functional Testing Delphi Add-in to test Delphi user-interface objects (controls).
This is a Windows-based add-in. Much of its functionality is the same as other Windows-based add-ins.
General information
The following table describes general information about testing Delphi applications with OpenText Functional Testing:
Supported environments |
The Delphi Add-in supports testing on Delphi controls created in the Delphi IDE and based on the Win32 VCL library. For details on supported Delphi environments, see the Delphi Add-in section of the OpenText Functional Testing Support Matrix. |
Test object methods and properties |
The Delphi Add-in provides test objects, methods, and properties that can be used when testing objects in Delphi applications. For details, see the Delphi section of the Object Model Reference for GUI Testing. |
Delphi Add-in Extensibility |
Develop support for testing third-party and custom Delphi controls that are not supported out-of-the-box by the OpenText Functional Testing Add-in. For details, see Delphi Add-in extensibility. |
Prerequisites |
The Delphi Add-in has no add-in dependencies. You can open your Delphi application before or after opening OpenText Functional Testing. In most cases, you must compile your Delphi applications with the OpenText Functional Testing agent before you can test them. For details, see Compile your Delphi application Agentless Delphi applications: You can test 32-bit Delphi applications without compiling them with the agent if they are built with a version of Delphi listed in the Support Matrix as supported for Delphi Agentless. Delphi agentless applications can only be tested on 64-bit Windows operating systems. |
