FlexMonkey: Easing the Pain of RIA Testing

UI testing - ugh. The mere mention of it can make hardened software veterans weep. As someone who's been developing GUI's since the 80's, I know all too well what a pain it can be to test them. And now that the industry is finally shifting away from its unfortunate digression into boring & clumsy page-based UI's back to exciting & seamless "fat client"-style interfaces using Flex, there is a whole new generation of developers and QA folks who will be experiencing the joys of trying to test every nuance of their whiz-bang RIA. Enter FlexMonkey 1.0, Gorilla Logic's new open source, automated record, playback & verification testing tool for Flex. With all the features you'd expect from an enterprise-class, commercial-quality testing tool, FlexMonkey enables you to immediately begin testing your browser and AIR-based Flex applications. And, like many of the best development tools available today, it's open source and free!
