Can tests be specified in other tools and then be imported into ContinoProva?

Yes. ContinoProva is implemented as a framework. So the interface between the ContinoProva Client and the test specification is an abstract one. Technically, there is a component between the test specification and the ContinoProva Client called “testcontrol”. The testcontrol’s task is to read the test specification and hand over one step after the other to the Client. If you want to specify the test in a different tool than the ContinoProva Editor, there are two possible ways:

1. Transform the test specification into the .itd XML format of ContinoProva and use the ContinoProva’s testcontrol.
2. A new testcontrol has to be implemented which reads your test specification and hands it over to the ContinoProva Client.
