Ui.Vision: automation features and setup

Overview

Ui.Vision suits repetitive website tasks and visual checks that require identifying an element on the screen. The extension can work with local modules called XModules to perform desktop actions as well. Reading text from an image is useful when there is no standard HTML element, but its accuracy needs to be checked. Before regular use, evaluate changes in screen resolution, scaling, and the computer's interface language.

Features

• Browser automation and visual testing through an extension.
• OCR and recognition of images and text within visual elements.
• Extension to desktop automation through local XModules.

Business uses

• Check that information appears on a website screen at different resolutions.
• Transfer data from an application with no accessible API.

Getting started

• Install the extension using the link to the official store on the product website.
• Build a short test macro and add XModules only if local actions are required.
• Run it at the resolution and scaling of the target environment and check the output.

What to check

• Hebrew OCR requires testing a sample with the actual font and images, especially for numeric fields.
• Image recognition automation can break after a visual change even when the business action remains the same.
