Sahi (software)

Sahi is an automation and testing tool for web applications coming in an open-source and a proprietary version.[1][2][3] The open-source version includes a basic tools set sufficient for most testing purposes (Record on all browsers, Playback on all browsers, HTML playback reports, JUnit Style playback reports, Suites and batch run, Parallel playback of tests), whereas the Pro version includes further features such as test distribution and report customization.

Sahi Open-source is written in Java and JavaScript and hosted on SourceForge since October 2005. It is released under an Apache License 2.0 Open Source License and its current version is 5.0 (published on November 5, 2014). Sahi Pro is currently in version 5.1.2 (published on 2014-04-21) is hosted on the Sahi Pro Website.[4]

Technical details

Sahi runs as a proxy server and the browser's proxy settings are configured to point to Sahi's proxy. Sahi then injects JavaScript event handlers into web pages, which allows it to record and playback events on the browser. Using a proxy makes Sahi independent of the browser used.[5]
