Note:
For older versions of the toolbox please refer to this page.
In order to create and maintain your Squash-TA test cases, you need several tools. In order to simplify the installation process, we have bundled these tools into the Squash-TA Toolbox. The installation of the Squash-TA Toolbox is described below.
In order to execute your test cases, you need the Squash-TA test execution engine, which is NOT part of the toolbox. No need to install it though, it will be automatically downloaded and installed the first time you will try to run a Squash-TA test (the Squash-TA test execution engine is integrated as a maven plugin, as we will see later on).
Prerequisite : Before starting the installation of the toolbox version 1.10.0 or later you must install a JDK 1.8, both 32 and 64 bits versions are compatible. See here to download it from Oracle site.
First of all, download the toolbox installer 'squash-ta-tools-bundle-X-X-X-RELEASE-installer.exe.jar' X-X-X being version 1.10.0 .
Launch the installer by double-clicking on it.

The next step lets you check the list of installed components. You may reuse some compatible components already installed on your workstation but for now let's assume that you will be getting all tools from the toolbox, and leave all boxes checked. Click on 'Suivant' (Next).

At this step (Path to the JDK) you need to specify the path to you installed JDK, as mentionned in the prerequisite, the version must be compatible with the toolbox, i.e. 1.8. You can directly type the path in the input field, or click on 'Parcourir' (Browse) and browse to your chosen location through a file explorer (you may create your installation folder from there if needed). After choosing the location, click on 'Suivant' (Next).

If the chosen path is not correct, path to a JRE or JDK 1.7 or before for example, you will have this error message (The chosen directory does not contain the required product).

The next step, lets you choose your toolbox installing location. You can directly type the path in the input field, or click on 'Parcourir' (Browse) and browse to your chosen location through a file explorer (you may create your installation folder from there if needed). After choosing the location, click on 'Suivant' (Next).

If the target folder already exists (even if you've just created it), you will get the left confirmation alertbox above. Click on 'Oui' (Yes) to confirm the location. If you typed a non existing location, the alert dialog will look as shown on the right. In this case you may click on 'OK' to confirm.

Next step allows you to pick a location to create your new eclipse worspace for Squash-TA projects. It is not mandotory to specify a path. As for the installing location, you may type the path directly or browse through a file explorator : 'Parcourir...' (Browse) button. If the location you typed does not exist, it will be automatically created. After choosing your location, click on 'Suivant' (Next).
