This product can work with QT applications and cross-cut from them, both on Windows OS and on MAC, as well as on mobile operation systems like iOS and Android too. The other value to this product is that it is an all-in-one feature. It has an IDE for developing and debugging, inspector, utilities squishrunner to run test suites and squishserver to connect to AUT via cli.
View full review »froglogic Squish is one of the most desired solutions if you have Qt as a framework and if you are looking at GUI regression testing. froglogic is a part of Qt as a company.
Earlier, Qt and froglogic were technical partners, but now froglogic as a company has been taken over by Qt. For anyone who is working on the Qt framework and would like to perform a GUI regression, froglogic Squish should be the product for them to use. It is seamless in functionality and with the operating system. If you're working on a Windows or Linux environment it works well for both environments.

I find it very user-friendly and easy to start working with. The main benefit for me is that it allows testing applications developed in the Qt language. This capability makes Squish a game-changer, as it's the only tool I've found that enables automation for applications written in Qt.
I appreciate three main aspects. Firstly, the documentation is excellent. Secondly, I value the way the tool efficiently locates elements during testing. These are the two aspects I particularly like.

I like the dashboard. It's virtual, and you can see the customer results. I can do it at night and in the morning. I think it also automatically emails results.

The ability to go through a test sequence and have Squish record the steps and verify the expected results. Then the sequence is saved and a test can be run quickly to see if any test is violated.
View full review »The most important thing with an automated GUI testing tool is the ability to quickly and accurately identify the UI components you want to script up.
Squish, after evaluating quite a few alternatives, was the best at doing this (we have a C#/WPF application).
Another feature, which has been the best for us, is the fact that once UI components are mapped, all testing can be performed via scripting languages.
When I was working as a developer in test, I wrote an entire GUI testing framework in JavaScript which was possible because of Squish’s ability to map the UI components accurately.
Squish was also easily integrated into our CI system (TeamCity). It had native support for TeamCity and allowed a Squish build step to be created that can run all, or a selection of automated tests. So now, when we have a successful build, all our UI tests are ran on the products which gives product management and the team greater confidence.

- Integration with Rational Quality Manager
- Support for wide range of tool kits (HTML, GWT, Smart GWT, Flex)
- Tech Support of Froglogic is awesome, you talk/chat/mail directly to the designers/developers of the product.
The behavior-driven development approach – BDD – centers around stories written in a “ubiquitous language” that describes the expected behavior of an application.
The use of the human-readable language Gherkin allows technical as well as non-technical project stakeholders to participate in the authoring of feature descriptions and therefore tests.
Those descriptions serve as a base for the work of both developers (specification and feature descriptions) and testers (test steps).

- Its remote testing is powerful and very interesting to perform for those who want to do testing in a different machine.
- Table-driven testing is one more excellent feature which I believe is most useful for those who want to check bulk data which is in CSV, TSV, and so on.
- Its record and replay are very powerful wherein Squish will not miss any action.
Its remote testing capabilities are very good and powerful. Squish reusability of scripts is an easy and good feature. Squish data-driven testing is very powerful and we can easily check for bulk and huge data without any issues.

It supports many platforms, which helps in getting automation solutions for most of the complex UI products.
