Advantages of Using X-Replay

Automatic test recording on IBM i

X-Replay provides everything you need to automatically record test cases:

  • Specify which screen elements to test: one, several or all
  • Includes intelligent object UI recognition

Test script editor

Automatically-generated test scripts can be edited with while loops and other logic:

  • Easily repeat tests with successive product IDs
  • Automatically run same test with different user privileges

Reporting dashboard

Dashboard provides everything you need to view detailed test results, individually or in aggregate:

  • Quickly narrow down the point of failure
  • View screen, element and exact line of code causing issue

Test case management

X-Replay helps organize your screen testing efforts with powerful test management functionality:

  • Tests stored in folders; interface to rename/schedule/delete
  • Ability to integrate with change management systems.

Field names as identifiers

X-Replay uses field names to identify the screen elements that are being tested:

  • Less maintenance than coordinates or screenshots
  • Tests don’t break when elements move on-screen

Accelerate IBM i Testing & Deployment with X-Replay

Improves developer productivity

X-Replay lets developers make code changes rapidly and with confidence. By providing a solution to quickly and automatically validate the changes, X-Replay eliminates manual testing and ensures a robust, repeatable testing method.

Ensures higher-quality applications

End users, partners and employees all expect a smooth user experience, so developers need to make changes to keep pace with expectations and deliver an intuitive interface. X-Replay ensures high quality no matter the number of modifications.

Resolves problems quickly

X-Replay uncovers and highlights problems automatically, using a convenient dashboard to show exactly where in the code the issue occurred. Developers no longer need to hunt down issues through trial and error.

Provides flexibility managing test cases

Test an entire interface, one or more screens or just certain elements in a screen — it’s entirely according to developer needs. Modify and re-run tests cases, view issues in the dashboard and easily integrate X-Replay functionality with other testing solutions.
