Internet Macros Review

Use Internet Macros™ to create a web automation or web testing solution in less then five minutes!

Web surfing is fun, but many tasks are repetitious: Checking on the same sites everyday, remembering passwords, submitting to search engines or testing web sites over and over again. With Internet Macros you record these tasks once and then let Internet Macros execute them whenever you need them.

Any combination of browsing, form filling, clicking and information gathering can be recorded into a macro and Internet Macros assists you during the recording with visual feedback.

Do you need to test web sites automatically?

Have you ever spent hours browsing your website to re-test it after a change? Using patent-pending technology, our advanced PRO and Scripting Editions can automate almost any kind of website for web regression and verification testing for you!

How does Internet Macros Scripting Edition compare to big name capture/replay web test software on the market?

Internet Macros SCRIPTING EDITION successfully competes with website testing software priced more than US$ 30,000 for only a fraction of the cost. In addition, the Scripting Edition allows you to interface Internet Macros with the well-documented Windows Scripting Host (included in Windows), Visual Basic or any other Windows programming language. This is a crucial feature for fully automating any given task and is missing often in much more expensive software.

Key Features
 

The following list are only some examples of many possibilities. As you can program Internet Macros the way you want it, it can do (almost) everything that you can do with a web browser!

If you are a power surfer, it can do the following:

• Automatically complete forms
• Auto-login to your email (and, if you want, also write and send the email for you!)
• Navigate complex websites repeatedly without user intervention.
• Transparent, transportable macro files: Record on one PC, replay on any other PC that has Internet Macros installed. (In contrast, the Microsoft AutoComplete entries can NOT be copied from one PC to another.)
• SECURE storage of passwords using the industry standard "BLOWFISH" encryption algorithm
• Keep your privacy: Unlike some other form filling tools Internet Macros does NOT send any data back to us. All data is only stored on YOUR local PC..
• Share your macros with your colleagues and increase productivity for your whole organization.

If you are a Web Professional, it can do the following:

• Regression test complex web sites at the click of a button: Before a change to your web site, record macros that mimic typical user behavior, for example adding items to a shopping cart. After the changes, simply re-play the recorded macros to make sure that no other previously-working functions have failed as a result of reparations and that newly added features have not created problems with previous versions of the web site and/or server software.
• Automate your search engine submissions, manage Google and Overture Pay per Click search engine listings and bidding automatically, extract information from websites, query online-databases and download the results automatically,...
• Internet Monitoring: Watch your web site and alert you if the macro encountered a problem on your web site. In contrast to plain Internet Monitoring services, Internet Macros can test online forms of any complexity (e. g. create test orders in an Online store) including even Java and Macromedia Flash based elements.
• Measure web site response times with the STOPWATCH command to create performance statistics.
• Avoid complicated Cron jobs, grep, sed, awk, lwp and other time-consuming Unix tools and commands. In addition, none of these tools has the wide functionality that Internet Macros has!
• Internet Macros can be set to simulate Internet Explorer (IE) completely. In this mode it is NOT possible at all for a web server to distinguish between a normal (human) user and the Internet Macros robot.
• Extract any TABLE directly into a comma-separated text file. These files can be read by almost any spreadsheet software, including Excel.

If you are a software developer, it can do the following:

• Extract data from web pages (web queries)
• Web enable your application in 5 minutes with ActiveX control component (Scripting Interface).
• You just have to write an "imacro" and call the Internet Macros command line or Scripting interface. Internet Macros does the rest!
• As the only software of its kind, it can automate even Flash or Java applets.
• Use Internet Macros as an Internet agent, robot or spider.
• Add "web surfing" and "web query" capability to your Windows or Perl Scripts
• Ship Internet Macros with your application. The Scripting Edition comes with a special redistribution license without royalty fees.

Internet Macros Scripting Edition

Not Available

The Scripting Edition of Internet Macros is THE solution for professional web automation, web site testing and data extraction.

In addition to all the features of the PRO Edition it features an easy-to-use data extraction wizard and the very powerful Scripting interface.

With the Scripting Interface all Internet Macros function can be remote controlled from any Windows scripting or programming language.

The Scripting Edition also includes the Internet Macros PLAYER license. The player license key allows you to ship macros, scripts and programs based on Internet Macros along with a copy of the Internet Macros Player itself to your users at no additional costs.

(1) The Scripting Edition includes the Internet Macros Player, which can be distributed royalty free:                 

Features of the Internet Macros Player:

• All features of Scripting Edition, except recording tab
   
• The option to install and run in the background (no visible user interface)
   
• Small size - The Player consists only of five files (Setup less than 550 Kbytes)

The player license key allows you to ship macros, scripts and programs based on Internet Macros along with a copy of Internet Macros itself to your users *without* royalty payment. Technically speaking this means that if Internet Macros is unlocked with the player license key your users have all the features of the SCRIPTING EDITION available except the ability to record new macros. SCRIPTING EDITION users can request the player license key free of charge.

(2) The Image Recognition Plugin is available separetely. It can also be redistributed with the IM Player Edition without royalty-fees.

License example:
Question: I want to set up 12 PCs at twelve locations to monitor a WEB application and upload response time data to a central database. What license do I need to order?
Answer: You only need to order one Scripting Edition license to create (record) the macros (Note: This assumes that do you all the recording on one machine). To replay the macros on your monitoring servers, you can use the IIM Player that comes with the Scripting Edition. The IIM Player can be installed on an unlimited number of machines at no extra cost.

System requirements: Win 98, ME, 2000, XP, 2003 or better, Internet Explorer 5.5 or better, 64 MB Ram, 300 MHz. Version 3.75 for Win NT is available on request.
