- Rational® Functional Tester overview
  Rational® Functional Tester is an object-oriented automated functional testing tool that tests HTML, including HTML 5, Java, Windows, .NET, Visual Basic, SAP, Silverlight, Eclipse, Siebel, Flex, Ajax, Dojo, GEF and PowerBuilder applications. With its ability to test HTML 5-based applications and UI frameworks, Rational Functional Tester also tests the user interface of Web applications on the desktop and on mobile devices.
- Task flow for Setting up Rational® Functional Tester
  The diagram in this topic shows the task flow for setting up IBM® Rational® Functional Tester.
- Creating a project
  The tests that you create, and the assets associated with the tests, reside in a project on your desktop. You can create the project separately, or you can simply record a test, which automatically creates a project named testproj.
- The UI Test perspective
  With the UI Test perspective, you can quickly create and run functional tests for the web applications. It gives you a recording and natural language scripting environment to test browser applications that use HTML5 and JQuery. You can test on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari browsers.
- Getting started in the Functional Test perspective
  With the Functional Test perspective, you can find information and task flows to create and run functional tests for native or hybrid applications.

Task flow Integrating Rational® Functional Tester and Rational® Integration Tester

You can execute integration tests in Rational® Functional Tester by using Rational® Functional Tester Extension for Rational® Integration Tester. In Rational® Functional Tester, you can create a compound test to run the integration tests by using agents.

To integrate tests, you must install Rational® Functional Tester Extension for Rational® Integration Tester. Also, to execute the tests remotely, you must install Rational® Performance Tester Agent and Rational® Integration Tester Agent.

After installing all the required software, you must set the environment variable and connect to the integration project. To open the Rational® Integration Tester project from Rational® Functional Tester Test Navigator, you must set the path to the execution file in the RIT Integration preferences. Later, you must create a compound test and play back the test to evaluate the results.
