Preparing for functional testing in Google Chrome browsers
You can use IBM® Rational® Functional Tester to
test HTML applications in Google Chrome browsers. To do this, you
must enable the Google Chrome browser and add the extension IBM Rational Functional Tester for
Google Chrome™ to the browser.
Google Chrome browser support
With IBM Rational Functional Tester,
you can test HTML applications that are loaded in Google Chrome browsers
in Microsoft Windows environments.
Enabling Google Chrome browsers
To use Rational Functional Tester to
test HTML applications that run on Google Chrome browsers, you must
enable the Google Chrome browser manually.
Adding the IBM Rational Functional Tester for Google Chrome extension
To perform functional testing in Google Chrome browsers,
an extension is required to be added to the browser that enables communication
between Rational Functional Tester and
Google Chrome browsers through a web server. This extension, known
as IBM Rational Functional Tester for
Google Chrome™, is available with your Rational Functional Tester installation.
Alternatively, the extension is also available on the Google Chrome
web store. To test applications loaded in Google Chrome, you must
enable the browser, which adds the extension to the browser.
Changing the web server port for communication with Google Chrome
The default web server port for communication between Google
Chrome and Rational Functional Tester is
set on the Webserver Configuration page in the Preferences dialog
box in Rational Functional Tester,
as well as in the options for the IBM Rational Functional Tester for
Google Chrome™ extension. If this default port is already in use on
the workstation where you are testing applications in Google Chrome,
change it and specify an available port.
