Enables experienced test-automation engineers to uncover more defects by extending their test scripts with conditional logic to cover more of the application, and to define test cases to call external DLLs or executables.

Provides test cases for common objects such as menus, lists and bitmaps, and specialized test cases for objects specific to the development environment.

Includes built-in test management, and integrates with the tools in the IBM Rational Unified ProcessŪ for defect tracking, change management and requirements traceability.
