1. Introduction

GUIdancer /Jubula are tools for the automated testing of Graphical User Interfaces. The focus of the tool is on testing an application's business logic (workflows, use cases) from the user perspective (functional, black-box, acceptance testing).

The approach used is the keyword-driven method. Tests are automated by dragging and dropping pre-defined modules (or Test Cases , or keywords) to make sequences of actions for your application. Each Project contains one or more libraries of these pre-defined modules for you to use. Test automation with these keywords is hierarchical - using the libraries, you can create modules of your own and reuse them to make more complex tests and so on.

Using the keyword-driven approach has various advantages, which are detailed in the next section 1.1.4.
