Thank you guys for your interest to my topic!
As for me I learn so much new looking through this forum!
Renegade,
>> What platforms/languages does it work with?
I can give you the following information: As for platforms TestComplete is working with the Windows family of operating systems (including Windows Vista).
I’d like to ask you what do you mean by languages? Is it scripting or spoken language?
So that is what I can tell you:
development tools: any windows application, superior support for most popular compilers (any .NET compiler (both Microsoft and non-Microsoft compilers), Java applications, Visual C++, Visual Basic, Delphi, C++Builder.
scripting languages: VBScript, Jscript, DelphiScript (similar to Pascal), C++Script, C#Script. So, you don’t have to learn a new language.
spoken languages: UI is in English. TC supports Unicode, so you can use it to test any application: Japan, Chinese, Russian, German, etc.
>> I keep thinking nunit for some reason - any similarities?
As far as I know, NUnit is a tool intended for unit testing of .NET applications. TC supports unit testing (and many other types of testing). It contains special supports for NUnit, MSTest, JUnit and DUnit tests. That is, you can call these tests as part of your TestComplete test. Also, TC has access to internal methods and properties of .NET applications. This feature let you call test objects’ methods of your .NET application directly from TC scripts. And these test objects may be an ordinary objects, that is, there is no need they support specific NUnit interfaces.
