Jacareto is a capture & replay tool for programs written in Java. You can capture actions on applications and replay them later on (like macros). Jacareto can be used for GUI tests, the creation of animated demonstrations and analyses of user behavior.

After three years, there is finally a new Jacareto release, version 0.8.0. Here is the list of the most important changes:

Jacareto startup changes:
* You can now run Jacareto with Java 6.
* You no longer have to set the JACARETO_HOME environment variable to build or
start Jacareto.
* When you downloaded the binary release, you can unpack it and simply start
CleverPHL by double-clicking on cleverphl.jar (in Windows) or running
java -jar cleverphl.jar (in Unix).
* There's a new command line argument for CleverPHL: -ud <directory name>.
With this option you can define the user directory for CleverPHL which is
by default the directory "%USER_PROFILE%\cleverphl_data". Thus, CleverPHL
is now portable, because you can specify where your sessions are stored.
* Small changes in Unix script files (thanks to Peter for the hints!).... read more
