PutshToTest has released TestMaker 5.0. TestMaker allows developers use PushToTest to turn their unit tests into functional tests, load tests, and automated monitors using a test automation platform that runs on their desktop development system. PushToTest includes Wizards and Recorders to automatically build tests and supports a variety of languages, including Java, Jython, Groovy, PHP, and Ruby. TestMaker supports Service Oriented Architecture (SOA,) Web Service, AJAX, and REST services using their native protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, SOAP, XML-RPC, and the email protocols, SMTP, POP, and IMAP). Among the highlights of the new release:

TestScenario is a new XML-based system to reuse unit tests as regression tests, functional tests, load tests, integration tests, and service monitors requiring no coding.

Record/play-back unit tests of Web applications using the integrated point-and-click TestGen4Web utility.

Create test suites of SOAP-based Web Services using the integrated Eviware soapUI utility.

Java 6 ScriptEngine (JSR 223) support enables you to write tests in any supported language: Java, Jython, Groovy, PHP, Ruby, and many others.

Distributed test environment (TestNetwork/TestNodes) to vertically scale tests to thousands of users and horizontally scale tests to operate the test from multiple locations around your network

Performance Comparison Utility shows changes in performance from one test to another.

Automatic archiving of test results in XML file format.

Log to Relational Databases (RDBMS)

Data Production Library (DPL) system to create dynamic data as test operates from XML files, Comma Separated Value (CSV) files, and Relational Database (RDBMS)

Expanded protocol handler support (HTTP, HTTPS, Apache SOAP, Apache Axis SOAP, REST, AJAX, email) and extensible to add your protocols.

Call TestMaker from the command-line to use with Continuous Integration Environments.

TestMaker is licensed as a free source code version distributed under GPL2 as well as a pre-built binary download that comes with a free commercial license that limits you to 200 concurrent running virtual test users and 10 service monitors. Additional users and monitors licenses available.
