Comprehensive IBM Rational Functional Tester, VBScripting

 Course Code : CTRFT311 Source : CresTech
Course Length : 2 days

This introductory course is designed to familiarize testing professionals with the basics of the IBM Rational test automation tools for use in testing .NET and Web applications.

Testers can build, enhance, and maintain scripts in a full-function Visual Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that integrates with the IBM Rational Software Delivery Platform products. Hands-on instruction is provided for those who want to explore the power of using IBM Rational Functional Tester. The Rational Functional Tester application builds effective and resilient test scripts using VBScripting and IBM ScriptAssure.™ technology.

The focus is on the practical application of Rational Functional Tester to resolve common .NET and Web automated testing challenges.
