Automation of QT based HMI GUI application in the Car

[bhakrim]

We are developing In Vechicle Infotainment based on QT GUI

Question

1. Are there effective ways to automate the GUI screens

Appication would be
Phonebook , media , telephony , navigation

[Gennon]

How do you want to automate it?

[bhakrim]

There is already lincense based tool called squish from froglogic . I am looking for open source tools available .

Testing

1. Testing Screens
2. Property based verifications
3. Some kind of recording and playback

[Gennon]

Ok, so you are talking about tests.

Squish is very good, recommend that. The cheaper option is to write tests using QtTestLib.

I do not know of any other good options.

Thank you Gennon , I thought qttestlib is used for unit testing . Will check this out for Automating GUI screens and verification ,

Any suggestions regarding using QTP or selenium
