TALC2000's Test Creation

TALC2000 test creation is fast and simple. You can create your tests using your existing application software prior to the application of year 2000 changes and use those same tests unchanged to test after the changes are made.

Test Creation

Test creation is simple. You input a test case manually once, and TALC2000 records everything that you do.

Recording application responses from your test requires a single mouse click on a button on the TALC2000 floating toolbar.

Completed tests are saved by adding them to a "Menu" of test cases. The menu displays a test number and a test name. At no time do you need to use cryptic file names.

Simple test case management

The TALC2000 "Menu" system helps you to organize and manage your tests.

You can create as many test "Menus" (test repositories, for the technically inclined) as you want, with each "Menu" designed to contain a group of related tests.

Simple test case editing

If an error is identified in the captured test case through incorrect test input, there is no need to re-record the test. A simple "pop up" editor allows easy corrections to test input data. If required, application output can also be easily edited using a full screen image editor.

"Point and Click" Scripting

Individual test cases can (and should) be kept small, designed to test a single function. Individual test cases are then linked using a very simple "point and click" scripting tool, so that multiple test cases (and scripts) can be re-run as though they were created as a single test recording.
  Top
Dynamic Linking

Script execution links all test cases dynamically, so that the latest version of the test case is always used. Scripts do not need to be edited or recompiled to support this feature.

Powerful date processing routines

TALC2000 allows you to input data to your test by selecting a function from a Windows "List Box". When this feature is used, the data selected is treated as a variable that is re-evaluated each time the test is run. This feature is typically used for input of transaction dates.

TALC2000 has many date functions already set up, but additional functions can be created at any time by writing small (4 or 5 line) "programs" which access a set of powerful date processing routines provided.

Creating these additional functions does require limited programming skills, but once created these new functions can be selected by the user from the "List Box" mentioned earlier.

Test cases created using these functions can be automatically re-run and validated using different dates simply by setting a single date variable before test re-run. No test case editing is required.

  Top
Installation specific configurations

An extremely powerful feature of TALC2000 is the functional support provided to "tailor" installation specific date handling requirements.

All Year 2000 specific date processing is controlled by a set of table files that can be set up at installation. Creation and maintenance routines for these table files are implemented as full Windows programs, providing ease and flexibility for the setup process.
