Tosca XBrowser Engine 3.0 can be used to test web applications.

Installation

The XBrowser Engine 3.0 is part of the Tricentis Tosca standard installation.

For detailed information on software versions and hardware requirements, see the system requirements.

Specify the browser

During test execution, the system searches automatically all open browsers for the control to be steered.

You can also use test configuration parameters to specify the browser that you want to steer.

Create a test configuration parameter

The Name of the test configuration parameter must be Browser. In the Value column, enter one of the following values:

  • Chrome

  • Edge

  • Firefox

  • InternetExplorer

  • InternetExplorerInEdge

  • Island

  • Safari

Test configuration parameter for running tests in Google Chrome

You can use all supported browsers to scan online websites. Tricentis recommends that you use either Chrome or Firefox to scan local websites.

Set the zoom factor

To ensure that the XBrowser Engine 3.0 scans and tests web applications properly, you need to set the zoom factor of your Windows display settings to one of the standard values, such as 100% or 125%.

When you perform a remote scan, you need to make sure that the browser or the Windows display zoom factor on your remote machine is set to 100%.

During local scans, the XBrowser Engine 3.0 works with any applied browser zoom factor.
