AJAX Application Testing Includes New Synchronization Features

General availability of major new specialized commands in its Patented eValid™ Website Test & Analysis Suite has been announced by Software Research, Inc.

Providing direct control of test script playback synchronization by interaction with the current DOM of an AJAX page, eValid has introduced a powerful set of AJAX Playback Synchronization on DOM Element commands. Testers aer allowed by this new eValid capability to address AJAX applications - which by nature are "asynchronous" - in a completely reliable way. EValid test scripts play back reliably, independent of how long the internal AJAX operations require, once the playback synchronization is determined.

To include the special AJAX synchronization commands, eValid scripts that are recorded "from life" can be edited. You can choose from eight variations, a variety that covers all types of AJAX application internal synchronization methods.

President of Software Research, Edward Miller, commented: "The AJAX synchronization features close a gap that has been around for some time: producing good, reliable, self-synchronizing tests for AJAX applications".

Miller concluded: "The eValid AJAX synchronization commands nail this problem directly in the browser -- where the problem is best addressed anyway".

In the Playback Synchronization on DOM Element command descriptions, the AJAX synchronization commands and technical details are explained. In all new eValid orders the eValid AJAX Synchronization commands are included at no extra charge.

eValid is a test-enabled web browser; the current release supports Windows 2000/XP/Vista. eValid V8 license bundles are available for Server Loading, Test Programming, Functional Testing/Validation, Application Monitoring, Regression Testing, and Site Analysis, and there is also an International Edition that supports DBCS and foreign-language environments.
