Installation

To install FlaUInspect, either build it yourself, get it from chocolatey (https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/flauinspect) or get the zip from the releases page here on GitHub.

Description

There are various tools around which help inspecting application that should be ui tested or automated. Some of them are:

  • VisualUIAVerify
  • Inspect
  • UISpy
  • and probably others Most of them are old and sometimes not very stable and (if open source), a code mess to maintain.

FlaUInspect is supposed to be a modern alternative, based on FlaUI.

On startup, you can choose if you want to use UIA2 or UIA3 (see FAQ why you can't use both at the same time).
