I've been on many projects and often the project manager thinks they need squish, but in the end it just doesn't have any positive impact on the product or the quality. The most recent project I was on for almost a year had a whole testing team and they have tried to get our Qt app to be tested using squish, this is a project that followed very specific UI specifications so its a dream to have the squish kind of testing for it. In the end it was hardly used for mostly technical reasons, and we never got to a point where we had a positive report of a regression. And we certainly had regressions ;) The tool just never found them. Its not squish itself thats a problem per sé, its the concept of testing the way the application looks which is broken by design. I think it would be good to avoid spending resources on this. -- Thomas Zander
