What kind of application is it? If it is web based you might want to
consider Selenium or Watir; both are available from http://www.openqa.org.
I've had success implementing Selenium in two different organizations
now and know others who have done the same with Watir.

Thats right if you give us information on what kind of application you
have, probably we can suggest you something.. as Adam suggested, Watir/
Selenium are good choice for web applications, If your application is
developed in Delphi you can try TestComplete ([url]http://testingg

testcomplete.asp) and so on..

There are way too many reasons why this or that tool may be not
suitable. Please specify what problems you faced trying Rational Robot
and probably we will be able to recommend something else. As for me, I
tried SilkTest and Winrunner and both did the job quite well. I can
hardly find a task at which these two could not be effectively used.

The most popular reason why people decide a tool is not suitable is
custom controls. UI elements which cannot be recognized by a tool are
a whole problem but there are ways how to deal about them. The most
efficient is introducing special accessibility functions directly in
the application code. The documentation usually contains information
on how to embed it into the code.

Another plausible reason is Java. Setting up the tool extensions to
handle Java may be not easy.

Just give us some clues.

I use Excel and text editors as testing tools.

Unless you tell us something about the problem you're trying to solve,
you'll get a useful answer only by accident.

What testing problem would you like the tool to help you solve?
