GORILLA LOGIC ANNOUNCES NEWEST VERSION OF FONEMONKEY AUTOMATED TESTING TOOL FOR IPHONE AND IPAD APPLICATIONS

Mon, 05 Dec 2011 17:16:11 +0000

Latest version incorporates new UIWebView support and recorded speed playback features for iOS devices BOULDER, Colo., Dec. 5, 2011 â�� Gorilla Logic, (www.gorillalogic.com), a leader in enterprise application development services and creators of open source test tools for mobile and Rich Internet Applications (RIA), today announced the latest version of FoneMonkey for iOS, the popular open source functional testing tool for iPhone and iPad applications. â��This most recent release of FoneMonkey for iOS adds several key enhancements based on requests from the open source community of iOS developers,â�� explained Stu Stern, CEO and president of Gorilla Logic. â��We are committed to meeting the needs of the open source community through frequent updates to FoneMonkey for iOS to provide developers and QA team members with rich features that help them ensure their testing is completed faster and with more accuracy.â�� Features added to the newest version of FoneMonkey for iOS make it easier for developers and QA team members to conduct automated testing of their iOS applications. These features include: â�¢ A new capability to run HTML Selenese scripts within a UIWebView â�� enabling Selenium testing of embedded web apps for the very first time â�¢ An option to playback scripts at recorded speed which increases productivity of developers â�¢ Console options to set playback speed/timeout from the console, allowing users to the option to set faster playback speeds when they do not need to see steps during playback or slower playback speeds if they want to watch and inspect each step during playback â�¢ Commands retry until timeout so the WaitFor command no longer is necessary when waiting for data Stern says now testers with no Objective-C knowledge can use JavaScript as an alternative to extend FoneMonkey-generated tests. This allows them to easily create tests and suites of tests in Javascript. In addition, data driving capabilities allow developers to create CSV databases to drive tests with unique data per each test. This allows users to create one test that can be run many times using different data to help them see how an application responds using multiple data sets. Finally, this latest version supports Selenese HTML scripts which enables developers not only to test native functionality of their applications, but also the parts implemented in UIWebViews, adding more test support for those who use web technologies in their applications. Gorilla Logic's passion for delivering quality software applications for enterprise customers led to the creation of FoneMonkey. It is the only test tool for iOS and, most recently, Android, that records all actions on an iPhone, iPad or Android phone while in use and plays them back as a test script at any time. It enables the interactive creation, editing and playback of automation scripts that exercise an application's user interface. Using FoneMonkey, developers and quality assurance team members can create suites of tests that automate and perform user operation sequences, and then verify results. FoneMonkey supports development as well as QA testing, and tests can easily be incorporated into continuous integration environments.

GORILLA LOGIC, INC. NAMED TO THE MERCURY 100 LIST OF FASTEST GROWING PRIVATE COMPANIES IN BOULDER COUNTY

Wed, 18 May 2011 02:21:50 +0000

BROOMFIELD, Colo., May 17, 2011 - Gorilla Logic, (www.gorillalogic.com), a leader in enterprise application development services and creators of open source test tools for mobile and rich Internet applications, Gorilla Logic, was named to the Mercury 100 list this week. The distinguished listing by Boulder County Business Report, recognizes the 100 Fastest-Growing private companies in Boulder County based on two-year growth.

The Mercury 100 award criteria were based on years 2009 and 2010. These were tough years in the overall economy and Gorilla Logic was one of the few companies to experience growth while many other companies remained flat or experienced a dip.

This year, Gorilla Logic is growing once again, hiring nearly 10 percent more staff in just Q2. "We are on a significant trajectory as we continue to bring value to existing clients and expand our portfolio of software services into the mobile space," said Stu Stern, Gorilla Logic's CEO.

Gorilla Logic also is growing in another community; it is the cyber community known to technologists as the open source eco-system. The company is the creator of numerous free open source functional testing tools, including FlexMonkey, FoneMonkey and FlexMonkium. Its expanding business has been fueled by the demand for these open source functional testing tools.

"We have needed to add a dedicated support engineer to respond to the hundreds of requests on the forums and will soon be adding another. The response to our open source tools has ignited our consulting practice and created a trickle down effect with hiring. We are excited to be employing local software engineering talent and contributing to the expanding high-tech community that is becoming a main component to the Boulder business community and surrounding areas. It's all good stuff." said Stern.

The company will be recognized on May 17 at a reception held at Flatirons Park.

GORILLA LOGIC TO SHARE BEST PRACTICES FOR AUTOMATED FUNCTIONAL TESTING AT 360 FLEX CONFERENCE

Company president to reveal how software developers can gain maximum benefits with minimum number of automated tests

WHO: Stu Stern
Gorilla Logic

President and CEO
(http://www.gorillalogic.com)

Stu Stern is a Founder and CEO of Gorilla Logic, Inc., a leader in enterprise application development services and creators of open source test tools for mobile and rich Internet applications. Stern is the creator of Gorilla Logic's category-leading open-source interactive testing tools: FoneMonkey, FlexMonkey, and FlexMonkium.

Prior to Sun, Stern was vice president of Equity Trading Systems at PaineWebber (now UBS).

WHAT: Automating Functional Testing

Automated functional testing is crucial to the development of all but the most trivial Rich Internet Applications (RIA). A core suite of automated functional tests provides a solid foundation for rapidly iterating product releases by ensuring the introduction of each new feature doesn't inadvertently break pre-existing functionality.

In this session, participants will explore how to use FlexMonkey -- a free and open source tool that automates functional testing of Flex and RIA applications -- to record, edit, playback and verify application functionality. Attendees also will see how FlexMonkey generates ready-to run ActionScript-based test scripts that can be extended to handle complex application usage scenarios. The session will also look at how FlexMonkey test suites can be run using FlexUnit, and how FoneMonkey (http://www.gorillalogic.com/fonemonkey) can be run with continuous integration tools. The session will conclude with a discussion of best practices for test automation that let developers get the maximum benefit from creating the minimum number of automated tests.
