| 1244019 | 2011-11-21 07:11:00 | So what if a dialog box opens 20 pixels to the left on one machine? I honestly can't see this idea working in any fashion that will save you time. Exactly. That's why I said in my first post, "Unless the operating system, and EVERYTHING on the computer is set up exactly the same as the other, duplicating the mouse movements etc will not cause the exact same result." Interestingly his idea was: the concept is that both computers will have the same software installed but one of them will have a higher version installed. Since the software is not exactly the same, the likelihood of issues as you suggest with dialog boxes opening in different places is quite high. |

| 1244020 | 2011-11-21 08:39:00 | As noted above from fred fish there are many tools for automated parallel testing (www.google.co.nz), which can churn out comparative data. But of course they cost, depending on specifics, and include enterprise software. But unsure if you can visualize different versions running simultaneously. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||

There are scripting & automation suites available for precisely this type of testing. To avoid automation scripting, I thought to do this idea :) coz automation takes more time to if any UI or any funtionality changed in next release. So I cameup with this idea,. Is it possible script to communicate with both PC's through the network , so the both PC's keyboard and Mouse activity can be synced, Script shoulde controle PC's Keyboard n mouse acticity such at it should know what it is clicking and typing in both PC's,..any suggestion on impliment this idea..? which script (language) helps to achive this type of automation ?? |

| 1244022 | 2011-11-22 04:34:00 | The time you spend buggering around trying to find some way of doing it can probably make up for the time lost just doing the task manually. Well, maybe. The PS/2 data protocol seems rather simple actually. You could probably build a mouse and keyboard duplicator with a microcontroller. If you don't know how, maybe you can pay someone to do it for you. |

| 1244023 | 2011-11-22 05:44:00 | I'd go the VNC route and have a screen(s)full of scaled remote sessions to the testing boxen and a hired monkey IT graduate to click the buttons in the required fashion. | fred_fish (15241) | ||

We have limited budget ;) so we have to use exsisting human resouses, so i'm thinking not to use more decated monkeys only for clicking bottons : | |

| 1244025 | 2011-11-22 07:03:00 | What about those Logitec keyboards and mice that have unifying USB dongles would that work? Assuming the one dongle can be used for both the keyboard and mouse if you bought both you would have 2 dongles. I have no idea if it will work but in theory no reason why it shouldn't Good idea, Gary. The problem is that each of the devices can only be paired / unified to one particular dongle. I tried pairing up my Logitech K320 keyboard to both my netbook and the primary station the other day and the device refused to work with two devices simultaneously. Cheers :) |
