Industry = Computers

Press Release Summary = Hamburg, Germany - 2007-08-08. froglogic today released a
beta version
of Squish for Mac, the automated GUI testing tool for Mac OS X Carbon
and Cocoa applications.

Press Release Body = Squish is the leading cross-platform GUI testing tool for
automated
testing of GUI applications based on a variety of GUI technologies
such as Java Swing/AWT/SWT/Eclipse RCP, Trolltech\'s Qt, AJAX/Web/HTML
and many more.

The new Squish for Mac edition features automated GUI testing of
native Mac OS X applications. The same rich set of features known from
other Squish editions is now available for QA engineers dealing with
Carbon and Cocoa applications on Apple\'s Mac OS X system.

\"While the popularity of Mac OS X is constantly growing, no
professional tools for automated testing of native Mac OS X
applications are available today. After the huge success of Squish
for other GUI technologies, we are very excited to fill this gap
by providing a solid and powerful test solution to companies targeting
the Mac OS X application market.\", said Rainer Schmid, froglogic\'s Mac
OS X team lead.

Squish for Mac non-intrusively hooks into Carbon and Cocoa
applications on the toolkit level. This allows robust GUI object
recognition and identification for all controls ranging from simple
buttons to complex widgets. Additionally, this technology gives the
tester access to the complete programming interface of the toolkit and
application providing maximum versatility for test scripts.

Squish offers a versatile testing framework with a choice of popular
test scripting languages (Python, JavaScript, Tcl and Perl) extended
by test-specific functions, open interfaces, add-ons, integrations
into test management systems, an IDE that supports the creation and
debugging of tests and a set of command line tools facilitating fully
automated test runs.

Squish for Mac beta 1 is now available. If you are interested in
automated testing of Mac OS X applications or would like to evaluate
any other Squish edition, please contact us at squish@froglogic.com or
