Thanks - know have heard it's name before.

Will check it out.

Already make use of SayTools in things like my add in for WPF apps, my version 
of snakes and ladders, and my Braille reference applet.

Stay well

Dear Jacob,

I recommend you rather look at autoit, you can even compile an autoit script 
thereby avoiding installation procedures.

Autoit can be downloaded from:
http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/downloads.shtml

And if you require your test scripts to speak you can look at Jamal's saytools 
which can be obtained from:
http://EmpowermentZone.com/saysetup.exe

Subject: [jawsscripts] Something I thought of today - general software testing

Was in a development team meeting this morning, and we were discussing software 
product testing, and was just thinking that you could quite easily automate 
some form of bulk software product testing using jaws scripts.

In other words, you could do something like install demo copies of jaws on 
something like 10 machines, install some jaws scripts to make them 
automatically go through a whole software use process, and let them all start 
up at around the same time, and do something like loop through various 
procedures like clicking buttons, hitting key strokes, typing in text - all 
along with pauses etc. if you wanted the timing to sort of match real world use 
- and the idea would be to get something like then backend server/database 
server get to experience some heavy load testing.

I know there are other ways out there to do this, and I think there are some 
other automation applications out there as well, but was just thinking it would 
actually be relatively easy to implement using jaws and scripting.

Just wondering if this is something anyone else has looked into before?

Stay well
