Squish tip of the week: Automating Multiple Applications with Multiple Squish Installations or Editions

Did you know that it is possible to use multiple Squish editions in a single test script?

The following example describes the setup and workflow for such scenario utilizing Squish for Qt and Squish for Web.

1. Install Squish for Qt.
2. Install Squish for Web.
3. Create a Squish for Qt test suite with the Squish for Qt IDE.
4. Create a Squish for Web test suite with the Squish for Web IDE.
5. Share the objects.map file across both test suites (Learn how to share an Object Map).
6. Decide which of the two test suites should be the main test suite. In our example, we choose the Squish for Qt test suite.
7. Continue with Recording
8. Continue with Replay

Note: The information above describes the setup for Squish for Qt and Squish for Web but the instructions are not limited to these Squish editions.
