Re: [flexcoders] testing of Flex apps

for unit testing, you can use either asunit:  www.asunit.org or flexunit - which is on the adobe labs page.
They are both based on JUnit - I've looked into both of them, if you want a comparison, here's my writeup of them:

If you are looking at a Continuous integration setup, there's also details on my blog about setting that up...

If you are loking for functional testing, then as shannon mentioned, QTP supports Flex2, or at least will in the near future...

Here is a well written article from adobe on the testing of a flash based application: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/blueprint/articles/qa_petmarket.html
 
Unless something has come out recently, I don't know of any automated testing tools that directly support flash apps (flex). You can use some of the apps like homer that basically just record exact screen location where you click and type, and then playback using the same coordinates. This is not the most reliable way of testing, but it can for some.
 
Has anyone tried writing an automated testing framework for flex? One that would run as a flex app, and load the target app to be tested inside of its self? Then it could communicate with it and "click" and "type". I have done several automated testing frameworks like this for web applications (since I was never a fan of record and playback or buying software to do it), but I haven't tried it on flash/flex. I am almost positive you could do it though. I might have to give it a try one of these days :)

What is the best way to regression test a flex app ?
Does flex provide any regression testing suite for testing flex apps like JUNit, HTTPUnit ?
 
TIA
