Concepts:

Graphical user interface (GUI) testing is one of the most important tests in any QA process. Think about it. Software programs that people use can connect with databases, communications systems, hardware… but the most important interface is with the human user. Without a reliable interface, the connection loses trust -- the single most important link between humans and computers.

Successful companies understand this. According to Microsoft's top rules for Vista developers, “a visual bug seen by all your customers might do more damage to your business than a rarely occurring crashing bug”.

With the rapid uptake of popular (but difficult-to-test) environments such as Ajax, Flash, .Net, Linux, and complex Java, and increased globalization requiring that applications support more languages beyond English, the need to understand real GUI testing has never been greater. In addition, the number of new operating systems available for devices continues to increase every year. And what about virtualization? The sheer volume of GUI tests can be overwhelming. How can you test all of these things adequately?

Most of the standard testing tools (which operate at the programmatic level) cannot handle these rapidly changing environments, and many don't validate what the user sees at all. Test professionals need to understand what they can do to meet these challenges.
