This eValid application example shows how well eValid works with one of the toughest YUI-based websites. As the YUI Demonstration Script illustrates, eValid can locate the right things to do on the target website, then take actions on them that are performed independent of details of the page. In effect, the page can change substantially and the script will still work normally. This is a big advantage for regression testing because the resulting test script is very durable, i.e. not "brittle".

Because eValid functional test scripts can emulate a field user doing any kind of complex transaction -- i.e. with a fully stateful emulation -- eValid functional tests become increasingly desirable for Web 2.0 and AJAX website and web application checking.

Here is our recommendation for eValid RIA Monitoring Packages.

eValid interfaces easily with major monitoring and network management reporting engines. The interface is usually a simple PERL script. Ask us for details about your monitoring environment. We can supply the PERL scripts for eValid customers at no extra cost.
