Scope:
IS&T web applications contain complex browser-based user interfaces created with JavaScript, HTML and CSS. The functional/regression test tool we currently use, QTP, only works in Internet Explorer, so it does not test IS&T’s set of supported web browsers. Therefore QTP cannot test individual browser issues nor can it test specific JavaScript functionality. Also, IS&T needs to evaluate its web applications against new web browsers and smoke test changes to the IS&T web application infrastructure (new database, new application server, new VM, etc.)
