Gorilla Logic's FlexMonkey Open Source Testing Tool Reaches 10,000 Downloads
Company's Adobe Flex Functional Testing Tool Helps Developers Enhance the User Experience and Improve Their Interactions on the Web
BROOMFIELD, Colo., May 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Gorilla Logic, (www.gorillalogic.com), a leader in enterprise application development services and creators of open source test tools for mobile and rich Internet applications, today announced that demand for its popular FlexMonkey open source testing tool continues to increase and that downloads now exceed 10,000 (http://www.gorillalogic.com/flexmonkey).
FlexMonkey is the most widely used open source tool for testing Adobe Flex and AIR applications. With its 10,000th download, FlexMonkey has established itself as the de-facto standard in this space. FlexMonkey allows developers and testers of rich Internet applications to record, playback and verify real-world user interactions. If desired, the test automation tool can also generate ActionScript test scripts that teams can easily use within a continuous integration environment. Gorilla Logic created FlexMonkey in 2008, and continues to contribute to the Flex ecosystem with ongoing enhancements and dedicated support to the community.
"We developed FlexMonkey because we know that automated testing capabilities are critical to the software development process," said Stu Stern, CEO of Gorilla Logic. "Our passion for quality drove us to develop these open source testing tools for our own engagements with customers, and we're proud to bring them to developers who care about quality software the way we do. This latest milestone of 10,000 downloads demonstrates the continuing value it brings to the developer community."
Gorilla Logic continues to lead in developing open-source automated test tools for emerging development platforms. In addition to FlexMonkey, Gorilla Logic has released FoneMonkey 5.0, bringing record-and-playback automated testing capabilities to the iPhone and iPad for the first time anywhere. Gorilla Logic's open source testing tools have grown out of the company's extensive experience providing mobile, web and rich Internet application development services to customers, from Fortune 500 companies to next-generation Internet start-ups.
"The open-source nature of FlexMonkey can be a real advantage," said the authors of the book Flex 4 in Action. It provides a high-quality solution out of the box, but with access to the source, you're able to update and modify the tool to fit your needs. This is something the commercial functional testing offerings don't offer."
