Works with any Windows Application
No matter whether your software is built with Qt, WinForms, WPF, Java, Web technologies, or a custom UI – ZenoTest detects and interacts with it effortlessly.
Extended support includes Qt 6.x.x applications (full property access, MinGW and MSVC toolchains), as well as Embarcadero C++ Builder (VCL) applications – without the need for plug-ins or framework restrictions.
Intelligent Object Recognition
ZenoTest automatically combines multiple UI attributes to uniquely and reliably identify UI elements across different technologies and implementations. Even when the UI layout changes or elements are reorganized, ZenoTest continues to recognize them correctly.
This results in stable test cases that significantly reduce test maintenance effort and minimize rework caused by UI changes.
Simple, C-like Scripting Language
ZenoTest’s lightweight C-inspired scripting language is easy to learn. Advanced users can leverage loops, conditions, parameters, and global functions for complex automation scenarios.
Clear, Readable Reports
Every test run is automatically documented. Beautiful HTML reports with execution time, status, and detailed results give your team full transparency.
