Testing Flex applications with FlexMonkey 1.0
Without automation, testing the UI components of your Flex application can be tedious and time consuming. Adobe includes an automation framework in Flex to enable developers to create automated tests that operate at the GUI level. FlexMonkey 1.0 is an open source AIR application that leverages the Flex automation framework to record and play back GUI interactions with your Flex application. With FlexMonkey, your tests can drive your application views directly, making it easy to exercise the view components and the logic behind them. Integration with the automation framework is under-the-hood ; you don't need to make any changes to your application source or compilation method to use FlexMonkey.
In this article, I'll show you how to get started using FlexMonkey as part of your development flow. FlexMonkey can launch your Flex application in different ways depending on your needs. It can launch your application directly from your Flex Builder project, it can connect to your application running in a browser, or it can be linked into your application. In this article, you'll learn how to launch it directly from your Flex Builder project.
