I am searching for an online service that allows me to automate certain regression or functionality tests. I would like the ability to use a browser based screen recording plugin like e52.com and ghostinspector.com have. I like ghostinspector.com the best so far but was wondering what tools you like best that may be alternatives to these.
Ghostinspector seems based on Selenium, so I think knowing and implement tests directly via Selenium will provide you more control if you may spend some time in Coding. But for those who are looking for quick solutions or learning Selenium, may find ghostinspector useful.

Is there a possibility to integrate something like limesurvey, typeform or similar directly via a REST-API? I had a look at both (as well as several others), but couldn`t find anything... The only thing I can think of would be a PWA/webview, but that would be suboptimal in my situation (offline availability, https, database connection etc) ... Also, I feel bad when a flutter app has to rely that much on webviews as Flutter simply complicates things further. Not a great use case for it.
EDIT: Just to clarify, I am not looking for something to build a form in flutter - I am looking for a way to build the logic behind the survey (like advanced branching, piping, block randomization, quotas, custom variables etc) and to quantify the results (kinda Psychometrics-like regarding quantification and comparison of intelligence, introversion, mental disorders, and educational achievement).
I asked a similar question to Anylogic linkedin forum so sorry for multiple posting (possibly for some of you). I just heard about the Anylogic program. My purpose is not simulation I want to visualize a log file. I want to allow the admin-user (who will be the user of the Anylogic model) to enter some settings which will cause some filtering and I want to visualize the whole file with Anylogic.
The file is a communication file. Possibly I will show communication attendees and interactions using Anylogic. I want to emphasize unnormal patterns in the log using visual and interactive properties of Anylogic. There may also some need for like zooming in and out during the execution of the model.
Is it something very difficult to do? I am a Java developer. I can understand that I should have to learn Anylogic. What other skills and development and test environments (Ide etc.) do I need?
I plan to do a serial of implementations for several log file types and currently I am trying to find the best tool which will allow me to make changes in visualization part of the models easily till I find the best representation of the data.
There are some examples of Anylogic which are installed built-in but I couldn't see an example which suits my situation. I do not know where to start. If someone helps me to start the design I would be very happy :)
Thank you for your attention..
Edit:
I am attaching a sample stereoscopic view model and a sample view. I want to do something similar to this. Is it ok with AnyLogic?
Ferda
simple answer: yes its possible.
Some more comments:
I am currently working on a very similar project actually. For me as an experienced AnyLogic user, it is very natural and AnyLogic offers all the features you ask for.
Is it something very difficult to do?
That depends on how quickly you can learn AL. But if you are experienced with Java, it will not be too hard, I imagine.
What other skills and development and test environments (Ide etc.) do I need?
None, really. You need to figure out how to use the visual elements of AL. All of them can be changed statically via the AL IDE but you can always change them dynamically via Java code. That is very important to realize and play around with.
I am attaching a sample stereoscopic view model and a sample view. I want to do something similar to this. Is it ok with AnyLogic?
Yes, that can be done.
I suggest you try checking the example models that come with AL. If you find something that looks like what you need, try to figure out how they did it. Then try to recreate it in a simple example model for yourself.
I am seeking a way to allow my non-tech users to specify a workflow and execute it (if anyone is interested, I want them to specify and execute test cases). Visual programming seems a good way to go.
Can I modify the Scratch IDE to remove some categories (such as sound, motion, etc), and add some of my own? Ditto for individual keywords (obviously, I then need to handle new keywords).
I have Googled, but the answer is not immediately apparent.
[Update] I have just found Google's Blockly
Blockly was influenced by App Inventor, which in turn was influenced
by Scratch, which in turn was influenced by StarLogo.
It looks very promising. Especially when it says
Exportable code. Users can extract their programs as JavaScript, Python, PHP, Dart or other language so that when they outgrow Blockly
they can keep learning.
Open source. Everything about Blockly is open: you can fork it, hack it, and use it in your own websites.
Extensible. Make Blockly fit with your application by adding custom blocks for your API and remove unneeded blocks and
functionality.
One possible snag is that it is browser based, but if my management don't like that, then I can create a dummy Windows based app consisting of little but a TWebBrowser component.
I will investigate and report back - unless someone else posts an acceptable answer first.
The short answer to your initial question is: no. You can't customize Scratch, or not to the extent that you seem to ask/want.
That said, look at:
custom blocks.
scratch extensions.
variants like snap
using scratch's source code in squeak to make your own variant.
other systems inspired from scratch, like appinventor and blockly.
Only the first two are compatible with the scratch web site.
A word on the site: depending on your purpose with Scratch, the exchange between users is a powerful part of scratch. Check how cooperation is supported, like the backpack. There's also a good wiki that documents much of the above.
I am capable with PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and SQL, and not bad with Drupal. Very recently, I acquired a customer that wants me to do some SocialEngine 4.xxx customization. My customer is aware that I have no experience with SocialEngine, but am capable with the underlying technologies (I gave him a lower hourly rate because of this too.)
I'm not seeing very much online that is geared towards someone like me. Where can I read about modifying SocialEngine that assumes very little knowledge about SocialEngine, but a competency at programming?
For example, I spent a few hours today trying to figure out how to conditionally display a block based on a Membership Level. It appears there is no way to do this using the GUI. No problem, I found some code that seemed like I could get it to work that would grab the user's membership level. However, where do I put this? Honestly, I'd like to have this at the block-level. SocialEngine doesn't seem to allow me to place arbitrary PHP code into a block, and even if it did, would that be the "SocialEngine" way of doing this? Should all custom logic like this be a module in SocialEngine, that attaches to events using hooks?
Thank you very much for looking at my question,

I've written a blog about accessing data through models, creating widgets and modules. You can find out about the general structure of Social Engine at http://garbtech.co.uk / http://socialenginetutorials.co.uk (both same blog)
Unfortunately, there are no books or official documentation on SocialEngine PHP API. Your only choice is to check out various (incomplete) guides over the Internet or study their source code and figure things out by yourself.
We currently use FogBugz at work, and I'm using the URLTrigger plugin to call out to a CGI script every time a case is changed. I'm trying to figure out how to do something similar with Trac; does anyone know if this is possible? I can't find any plugins or discussion on it.
t-h.o is the first address to seek for Trac plugins. Because Trac is actively encouraging plugin development by it's sophisticated Component Architecture since early days, you'll find a lot of code. And since Trac core developers have been involved, this is often quite good code quality too. Stuff you'll read to get an idea on how things are supposed to work.
Maybe you'll want to start with current official wiki docs to dive into Plugin Development for Trac and change over to trac-hacks.org afterwards.
Regarding your declared development goal especially look at trac.ticket.api.ITicketChangeListener - an extension point interface for components that require notification on when tickets are created, modified, or deleted. Sounds like this is just what you want.
You'll need to (rough list of requirements)
create a class based on trac.core.Component that
implements (ITicketChangeListener)
provide modules exactly as required by the interface definition
If you need more details, I'd recommend to look at the DefaultCcPlugin source. There are many more plugins implementing the ITicketChangeListener interface, but this is a rather small plugin, that'll just show you the available methods and not distract with too much functionality around them.
Add information to your question as you progress, or Comment here as required. I'll try to guide you further on to the best of my own knowledge.
