There is also an AI transformation assistant, AI mockup identification, and an AI cloud service. Customers have reported that the AI capabilities have significantly accelerated test scripting and reduced maintenance, making their testing far more resilient to application changes.
-
As of version 26.1, Python is now supported as a programming language for test automation, available as a Beta feature alongside the existing VBScript language. Teams can choose their preferred language when creating a new test, giving developers already familiar with Python the flexibility to work in a language that fits their workflow while retaining all the platform's existing capabilities.
-
OpenText Functional Testing integrates with a broad range of DevOps tooling, including Git, Jenkins, and Docker containers. The Jenkins plugin is actively maintained and frequently updated. Tests can also be run in parallel across multiple environments, helping teams speed up execution and align testing with continuous delivery practices.
-
Keeping tests up to date as applications evolve is one of the biggest costs in functional testing, and OpenText Functional Testing addresses this directly. AI-powered object recognition adapts automatically to UI changes, reducing the need for manual script fixes. It also supports modular test design with reusable components and an object repository, so teams can make updates in one place rather than across every affected test.
