Qualitia Automation Studio (QAS) is a script-less test automation platform that makes building, executing, and managing automation tests simple, fast, and easy. Using the script-less approach you can easily develop and automate tests without any tool or programming knowledge.

Qualitia uses some third-party software components, most of which are bundled with Qualitia. Some software components cannot be bundled with the Qualitia installable due to their respective licensing policies.

You may have to install one or more components based on your role to get started with automation testing. Qualitia gives you the provision to install all these components on the same machine and different machines as well.

Qualitia Automation Studio Server Prerequisites

Qualitia has a client-server architecture. Qualitia server acts as a connection point for multiple Qualitia clients. This server should be up and running all the time and should be accessible by Qualitia Clients.

You are recommended to have a machine dedicated for the Qualitia Server.

Processor	Intel Core i3 64-bit supported processor with 3.4 GHz or higher speed
Memory (RAM)	Minimum: 8 GB Recommended: 16 GB
Hard Disk Space	Minimum: 500 GB Note: Qualitia recommends the Administrator to review disk usage periodically in the initial weeks after installation to assess execution patterns and storage consumed. This helps to determine the appropriate size requirements for the organization.
Operating System Support	Only 64-bit version of the following operating systems are supported: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Microsoft Windows 10 Microsoft Windows Server 2012 and later.
Software Prerequisites	Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2 Ensure that .Net 3.5 is turned on under Windows Features. For more information, click here. Java 8 (64-bit)- Oracle Java 8 : 1.8.0_261/ Adopt OpenJDK 8 (LTS) with OpenJ9/ Azul Java: 8.50.0.21 (Optional) SQL Server Native Client v11.x (recommended while working with SQL server and Chrome Object Spy) Click here to download.
Privileges Required	Local Administrator privileges (for installation of Qualitia Server)
Communication Ports TCP (Inbound)	The following list indicates the communication ports for each component: 1947: Qualitia Licensing Service 8889: Qualitia Server component 8887: Qualitia Web Service 1433: MSSQL Server 3306: MySQL Server 4001: Mobile Object Spy Server 21000 to 22000: Mobile Object Spy Agent (any port from the specified range) 80: Apache Subversion (Versioning and Revision Control Tool). These TCP ports need to be opened on Firewall allowing inbound communications from Qualitia components.

All the port numbers mentioned above are the default communication ports used by these applications. In case you are changing the default ports, you must open or unblock the corresponding ports.

Data Store Server

Qualitia Automation Studio clients connect to Qualitia data store server to store and retrieve test cases, execution results, and other related information. You can use RDBMS server for storing project data based on your preference.
