 The
Phantom Test Driver (PTD) is a full featured script development
and execution environment for Phantom scripts. Key features
of PTD include a built-in script editor, a script debugger,
multi-script execution capability, remote execution capability,
and much more.
PTD is the perfect tool for application functional testing
and regression testing. Phantom scripts can be organized and
executed as groups called Suites, with the output combined
in an easy to read format. Each Suite contains a group of
Testcases - individual Phantom scripts. For application testing
purposes, each Testcase can test a particular application
feature, with similar Testcases grouped into Suites. In this
way, an entire application feature set can be tested through
a single action, with all output and results presented in
an easy to read format.
PTD is seamlessly integrated with the Phantom script engine
and can run any Phantom script.
New Features in Version 2.0
PTD version 2.0 is a complete redesign. Many new features
are included that complement the new features of Phantom version
2.0.
PTD now includes an integrated Phantom script debugger. This
powerful tool significantly aids in Phantom script problem
resolution. The debugger allows single step execution of Phantom
scripts and includes variable watch and breakpoint functionality.
Another major new feature in PTD version 2.0 is the ability
to remotely execute Phantom scripts. By interacting with the
Phantom Agent, PTD can control Suite and Testcase execution
on multiple machines. The Phantom Agent is a thin interface
for the Phantom engine installed on remote machines. PTD communicates
with the Phantom Agent, sending information on what scripts
to run. All output from the remote machines are sent back
to PTD and displayed in the PTD output window.
Many other new features are also present in PTD version 2.0.
A summary of these new features is shown below:
- Multi-Script Execution
