Hi,
To me, the main benefit of Exactor is the separation from tested code
and test scenario.
This is mandatory as scenario is defined in a text file witch *is not* a
.java file to compile.
When scenario is defined in a java class file (like subclass of
TestCase) then, for User Acceptance Test (end to end) then,
it always finish by including code knowledge in the test, witch is bad
practice and doesn't keep test scenario "code agnostic".
As Exactor use JUnit, it has the same power.
So, for unit test, I use JUnit, for UI or end to end test, I use Exactor.
I used it sucessfully on a Swing project. I know it can work on web
project but not sure about how to handle Flash directly.
I think the integration work could be based on Watij framework to drive
the browser but, again, I've no idea if it can reach Flash directly.
Hope this help !

Hi JBB and Mike
We are evaluating "Automated Testing" for Open Laszlo. Can you please update
with your findings so far and suggestions.
"Exactor", at first glance seems like a JUnit extension. Do we have
something similar to that of "Selinum IDE" for Flash run time ?

Subject: Re: [Laszlo-user] automated testing
I didn't started that work on my project but I plan to use exactor on
sourceforge.
This would need some integration but that is a really nice approach I
tested and used successfully with Swing application.
Are you interested in Flash, DHTML or both as target ?
We may find a way to share this effort ...
