QuickStart Tutorials for Rational Functional Tester (RFT) - rft

I am new to RFT. Infact I have seen the interface only once. But now my next project seems to be an automation using RFT. I would like to get some quick start on learning RFT(Rational Functional Tester).
Can anyone show me some quick links as to where can I start with this?
Thanks in advance.

Your best bet is to first download RFT from here
Once the installation is done, Click the Help tab, and then click Tutorials. That will be a good quick start IMO.
Then access the sample projects in RFT and it is Eclipse based, so if you have used Eclipse before, it will be fairly easy to pick up.
You could go in more detail later, and look up features like "keyword driven frameworks" etc for a real world example.
Best of luck!

Please refer to IBM Release notes link where you can find Simple tutorials to get started with RFT.

What language (or framework) can i use to build auto do some specific task in a website

I want to write a program to do some specific task in a website (ie: Auto order, auto login and post some comments). But i don't know what language or framework can help me do that.
If you know plase help me.
It sounds like you want to automate some user actions on a website, for that Selenium/Webdriver is the best library/framework if you want to do it on a Desktop or Appium if you want to do it on mobile.
Seeing as you are a beginner I would also recommend to use Python as its not only easy to get started with but its also one of the better languages in current times for anything related to automation.
I actually have multiple playlists that teach:
beginner to senior concepts in Selenium
beginner Appium concepts
how to build an advanced framework in Appium

Automation testing for windows and web?

I am looking for an automation testing tool that checks the following features:
Windows application functional testing on local desktop
Web-based functional testing
No coding required, to be used by testers with no coding experience
Record and run would be easy for GUI, but for object based testing some features to write simple words without coding without syntax problems
Can someone please help me with this?
I would recomend QTP as it can be used without any need for coding. The testers will just record and play back the recorded tests.
I don't understand point four well. I hope that my answer sheds some light and point you into the right direction
TestComplete is the way to go for this. It's strong points is everything you're looking for it seems. There is a 30 day free trial too and a bunch of content to get you up to speed. No coding required. http://smartbear.com/products/qa-tools/automated-testing-tools/

Develop a plugin editor for eclipse

I have a question for you. My teacher proposed a couple of thesis to me. Basically to develop a plugin for eclipse. There are 2 options:
1)An editor for A-SPL language with syntax highlighting, auto completation of the cose, errors detection and so on........to help people that need to use S-APL
2)An editor to help people to design GUI in S-APL......something like a framework where you can drag widgets and there is a kind of automatic completation of the code....
The thesis should last 4 months......i should not implement everything but make a kind of prototype that maybe in the future someone will finish and make properly work.
I never did something like this so i would like to know if it is difficult, which skills are needed, which languages i should know to create eclipse plugins (for example i know java and python) and so on......to figure out if it is something i can do.
I'd suggest to look into the Xtext (for a textual editor) and Graphiti (for a graphical editor) projects.
You'll need Java for Eclipse plugins.
You need to read a book / the eclipse plugin wiki about Eclipse architecture as it's critical to know the paradigms in use.
There's an example XML plugin editor that you can create from the 'New Plugin' wizard which would be a good starting point for the first option.
good luck. :)

What is the most Interesting and innovative IDE?

As every programmer knows tools are important and there is no tool more important for a developer than the IDE you use to code. In the last few years the IDE-s fall into standards and it is not common to see innovation in this area. What IDE-s you can recommend as innovative and what new ideas and paradigms they introduced?
This is by far the coolest set of coding tools yet!
http://vimeo.com/36579366
I haven't used this but saw the demo video yesterday. The IDE is called code bubbles and has a unique way of showing and grouping related code together.
That said I find the intellitrace feature in Visual Studio 2010 quite innovative.
Palm's Project Ares: http://ares.palm.com/Ares/about.html
It's the IDE for the Palm webOS phones, that runs entirely as a web app. You build and run your app inside the browser, and when you're done, you deploy straight to the cloud.
I'd put my bet on Meta Programming System by Jetbrains. The concept is not new but it's the first time it has been implemented on such a huge scale with great IDE support. You create a DSL first, then write programs in that DSL and finally generate code in a target language.
I'll go for Scratch, though I wouldn't want to write a banking system using it :-)
Some cool videos of structured editor prototype that will let you directly code the AST.
This is a prototype only and I have no idea if it is still being developed.
One interesting IDE I have seen only on video is Code Bubbles. It opens code snippets as a graph of visual "bubbles". It is really interesting and definitely something I want to try.
