Question

Below tools I figured out for Flex Testing

• FlexMonkium - Selenium IDE Addon
• FlexMonkey - http://www.gorillalogic.com/flexmonkey
• FlexPilot - https://github.com/mde/flex-pilot/wiki
• FlexUISelenium - http://code.google.com/p/flex-ui-selenium/

-> What would be most preferred tool from above list for developing flex based automation. Learning curve, Tool features

-> I have not found example blogpost for a flex based website testing :(, Any pointers to documentation/examples would be helpful

-> Any best practices / lessons if you have worked on this tool

Meantime, I'm beginning to start looking at FlexMonkey

Here are some useful posts from Stack Overflow:

2. Automated testing of FLEX based applications
3. Flex UI testing automation
