Hamburg, 12 November 2007 – froglogic GmbH today announced that it has
joined the Eclipse Foundation committing even stronger to the Eclipse
project and the growing Java RCP community.

The Eclipse Foundation provides services for Eclipse, an open

development platform comprised of extensible frameworks, tools and
runtimes for building, deploying and managing software across the
lifecycle.

froglogic is the vendor of the leading, cross-platform GUI testing
tool Squish that supports many different GUI technologies. This
includes dedicated support for automated GUI tests of Java Eclipse
RCP/SWT applications as well as Java AWT/Swing applications. The next
version of Squish will also feature an Eclipse plugin providing
integration into the Eclipse Test & Performance Tools Platform Project
framework.

“We are very excited to have froglogic join the Eclipse
Foundation,”
said Mike Milinkovich, Executive Director of the
Eclipse Foundation. “Automating GUI tests is a crucial part of the
development process of today’s complex GUI applications. Having
froglogic with its automated GUI testing framework Squish on board
brings significant benefits to the Eclipse community.”

“Since the first release of our Squish for Java edition for automated
Eclipse RCP GUI testing we gained a lot of customers in the very
active and growing Eclipse/RCP community. Joining the Eclipse
Foundation is the logical next step for us to show our commitment to
this exciting project.”,
