Improve productivity exponentially at every phase

Applitools helps rapidly write, run, analyze, report and maintain tests and exponentially improves your productivity at every phase!

Write Run Analyze Report Maintain

Write

Replace 100s of brittle assertion code with a single line!

Before

After

Displaying: eyes.checkWindow("Login Page");

Run

Before, the same test had to be executed repeatedly against each combination making it slow, error-prone, and redundant. With Applitools, you’ll execute them against just one browser and the Ultrafast Test Cloud will re-render the DOM from that execution in all combinations, making it simple and ultrafast!

Before

After

Analyze

Before, you had to manually analyze if the errors were actually errors or test script issues. With Applitools, Visual AI highlights all the differences making results analysis a breeze!

Before

After

Report

Before, you had to report each bug and perhaps attach screenshots for each bug, very tedious. With Applitools, you can annotate each difference and directly share it in Jira, Github, etc. systems!

Before

After

Maintain

Before, you had to update a ton of code! With Applitools, instead of code, you’ll manage the images by simply clicking “Thumbs Up” or “Thumbs Down” buttons!

Screenshots Testing

If you already have screenshots and want to ensure they don’t change, simply upload them using our Screenshots SDK and let the AI check for differences. For more, see our tutorials

Displaying: public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { Eyes eyes = new Eyes(); // Initialize the eyes SDK and set your private API key. eyes.setApiKey("YOUR_API_KEY"); try { // Start the test with a viewport size of 800×600. eyes.open("Applitools site", "Java Screenshot test!", new RectangleSize(800, 600)); // Load page image and validate. BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(new URL("<Path to the screenshot>")); // Visual validation. eyes.checkImage(img, "Contact-us page"); // End visual UI testing. eyes.close(); } finally { // If the test was aborted before eyes.close was called, ends the test as aborted. eyes.abortIfNotClosed(); } }

Displaying: // The following code loads "image1" from the URL and uploads it to Eyes for analysis eyes .open("Image Test", "Sanity Test", { width: 785, height: 1087 }) .then(function () { // Load page image and validate. return getImage("https://path/to/image1").then( function (img) { // Visual validation point #1 return eyes.checkImage(img, "Contact-us page"); } ); }) .then( function () { // End visual testing. Validate visual correctness. return eyes.close(false); }, function () { return eyes.abortIfNotClosed(); } ); //See the tutorials for the code function getImage(url) { … }

Displaying: Steps for running tests 1. Download the ImageTester.jar 2. Add your API Key as an environment variable (optional, but recommended). 3. Create a folder which will contain the images under test (let's say /under_test). 4. Copy one batch of images into the /under_test folder 5. Run the ImageTester.jar jar file as shown below: java -jar ImageTester.jar -k $APPLITOOLS_API_KEY -f <PATH_TO>/under_test/

Displaying: class HelloWorldBasic: # Initialize the eyes SDK and set your private API key. uri = "https://eyesapi.applitools.com" eyes = Eyes(uri) api_key = os.environ.get('MY_APPLITOOLS_API_KEY') eyes.api_key = api_key # Start the test viewport_size = {'width' :1024, 'height' :768} eyes.open('Hello World App', 'Hello World Test', viewport_size) try: eyes.check_image('./image1.png',"checkpoint 1"); eyes.check("checkpoint 3", Target().region("./image1.jpg",Region(10,15,600,400)) .ignore(Region(left=10,top=10,width=33,height=43)) ) # End the test. throwtTestCompleteException = False test_results = eyes.close(throwtTestCompleteException) finally: # If the test was aborted before eyes.close was called, ends the test as aborted. eyes.abort_if_not_closed()

Displaying: <?php class HelloWorld { public function demo() { // Initialize the eyes SDK $eyes = new Eyes(); $eyes->setApiKey('YOUR_API_KEY'); // Start the test with a viewport size of 800×600. $eyes->open('Hello World!', 'PHP Screenshot test!', new RectangleSize(800, 600)); // Load page image and validate. $imgPath = __DIR__ . '/applitools.jpg'; // Download an image. copy('https://path/to/your_image.png', $imgPath); // Visual validation. $eyes->checkImage($imgPath, 'Applitools image'); // End the test. $eyes->close(); } }

Displaying: – (void)testExample { Eyes *eyes = [Eyes new]; // Initialize the eyes SDK and set your private API key. eyes.apiKey = @"YOUR_API_KEY"; @try { // Start the test [eyes openWithApplicationName:@"Applitools site" testName:@"iOS Screenshot test!" viewportSize:CGSizeZero]; // Load page image and validate. NSData *imageData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://path/to/your_image.png"]]; UIImage *image = [UIImage imageWithData:imageData]; // Visual validation. [self.eyes checkWithTag:@"Applitools!" andSettings:[Target image:self.image]]; // End visual UI testing. [eyes close]; } @catch (NSException *exception) { [eyes abortIfNotClosed]; } }

PDF Files

If you are in finance or healthcare industry, you may generate lots of PDFs. Use our PDF tester to easily ensure PDF files have no visual defects and meet all the regulatory compliance. For more, go to our tutorials.

Displaying: 1. Download the latest ImageTester (e.g. ImageTester_1.4.3.jar) file 2. Add your API Key as an environment variable (optional, but recommended). 3. Create a folder which will contain the pdf under test (let's say /under_test). 4. Copy new version of the pdf into the /under_test folder 5. Run the ImageTester.jar jar file as shown below: java -jar ImageTester.jar -k $APPLITOOLS_API_KEY -f <PATH>/under_test/

Desktop SDKs

The Applitools Eyes Desktop SDK allows you to easily add visual checkpoints to your UFT/QTP/CodedUI tests. It takes care of getting screenshots of your application from the underlying driver, sending them to the Eyes server for validation, and failing the test in case differences are found.

Displaying: ' Make sure to include 'Eyes.qfl' via File -> Settings… -> Resources ' This is your api key, make sure you use it in all your tests. eyes.ApiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY" ' Test setup – You should have 'Notepad' window object in your objects repository Set testApp = Window("Notepad") eyes.SetBaselineInfoFromWindow(testApp) ' Start visual UI testing – Open eyes test eyes.Open "Hello World", "QTP Hello World Test" ' Visual checkpoint #1 eyes.CheckObject testApp, "Hello!" ' Write something testApp.WinEditor("Edit").Type("Applitools UFT Demo") ' Visual checkpoint #2 eyes.CheckObject testApp, "Write!" ' End visual UI testing.

End If End If

Displaying: [TestMethod] public void TestNotepad() { Process notepad = Process.Start("notepad"); // Open notepad WinWindow testApp = new WinWindow(); testApp.SearchProperties[WinWindow.PropertyNames.ClassName] = "Notepad"; // Start the test and set the application's viewport size to 800×600 eyes.Open(testApp, "Hello World!", "My first CodedUI C# test", new Size(800, 600)); // Visual checkpoint #1 eyes.CheckWindow("Hello!"); // Write something WinEdit edit = new WinEdit(testApp); Keyboard.SendKeys("Applitools CodedUI Demo"); // Visual checkpoint #2 eyes.CheckWindow("Write!"); // End the test eyes.Close(); }

When we added Applitools Visual AI + Ultrafast Grid to our test generation framework, we were able to decrease test authoring time to under 5 minutes per test, while increasing test coverage, reducing build time, and achieving a 99% pass rate.

I love how Applitools Eyes has the smarts to ignore minor visual differences in your components, especially when testing on different browser types where it’s easy for layout to be off by a pixel.
