You can execute Snowflake test cases using SpiraTest using an integration and orchestration approach. We do not support direct database execution inside SpiraTest, but instead allow SpiraTest to initiate the testing activities and/or receive the results of the tests back in SpiraTest.
In this mode, SpiraTest acts as the system of record for test cases, execution results, and traceability, while Snowflake queries are executed via external runners or automation frameworks. In the rest of the article we provide details about the different ways you can setup this orchestration.
Along with the release of Rapise 8.4, we introduced RapiseUtils public module. Its purpose is to help automate tasks related to the maintenance of a testing framework, data import, and more. In the initial release, we present a feature to import manual tests from Spira in bulk.
The Cost of Quality (CoQ) is about both product quality and process quality. As part of these considerations, quality assurance can focus on additional patterns. In this article, we will discuss how to graphically show the summary information on these metrics.
In order for Rapise to be able to test a thick-client desktop application written using Qt, it needs to support Microsoft Active Accessibility (MSAA), as described in this article - http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/accessible-qwidget.html
This article demonstrates how to check your application to see if it supports MSAA.

One of our users had a webpage with a form. When it was submitted partially filled, the page came back (after being processed on the backend) with some errors about incomplete form. If the user tried to navigate away from this page via a link (or close the page/browser tab) he was prompted with browser's standard "Are you sure you want to leave this page?" dialog. He needed a way for Rapise to handle this popup when recording and playing back the web test.
A customer of ours was using Rapise on a computer that was also running the ANSICON application. This changed some of the settings in the Windows registry that affected the Windows command-line parser. This article explains how to clean up the command-line to allow both applications to work correctly together.
During the evaluation of Rapise 5.2 for Microsoft Dynamics AX testing, a customer collected the following tips and tricks from our support team (thanks Maxime!).
Sometimes the goal is to find specific image on the screen. It may be special symbol, map pointer or an icon. This topic contains ImageFinder and sample test demonstrating its capabilities.
Sometimes it makes sense to automate certain steps of a Manual Test. If you prefer to implement automatic steps in RVL then include the AUTO helper function into your test.
Cucumber is a software tool that computer programmers use for testing other software. It runs automated acceptance tests written in a behavior-driven development (BDD) style. Cucumber is written in the Ruby programming language. This articles explains how you can use SpiraTest and RemoteLaunch to integrate with Cucumber.
