== split lower table, and maybe combine redundant names ==
Currently the article has FLOSS tools for GUI test, proprietary tools for GUI test, and a mixed table for test-automation. Can we split the third table, to give us four tables, and [[hobgoblin | consistency]]? :-)
My other suggestion is a bit more invasive; there are many names listed under GUI test, and also under test automation; should we just make a checkmark-column, so that we can show which GUI test tools also support test automation? It seems less than useful to list tools twice. — [[Special:Contributions/74.192.84.101|74.192.84.101]] ([[User talk:74.192.84.101|talk]]) 05:35, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

== Notability again ==
I reverted your edit of the list of GUI testing tools. I see no reason that the list should not include a tool just because there is no corresponding article for it. It's a real tool with a real user community. I provided a link to the webpage and relevant information. [[User:Victorianist|Victorianist]] ([[User talk:Victorianist|talk]]) 02:10, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
: The comment is clear:
<nowiki><!-- IF YOU DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THIS MESSAGE, YOUR EDIT WILL BE ROLLED BACK WITHOUT WARNING.
Only place entries here that are links to actual Wikipedia articles about notable GUI testing tools. External links, redlinks, non-notable sites will be removed. If you have questions, use the talk page. Please try to keep entries in alphabetical order. Adding unnecessary links or text to any other section (such as the "References" section) will also be removed. Thanks.

:: Thank you for trying to make this article less useful by deleting references to GUI testing tools. It is a shame that small wikipedia contributions like adding a tool to this list is simply deleted rather than you leaving it so that someone else could improve it by taking the minimal time to create a stub article for the tool. Your scolding tone is also unnecessary. I've never been involved in a revert war so I'm just going to leave the article alone and it will continue to be what it is: incomplete, sadly out of date and therefore useless. In my opinion, this makes Wikipedia worse, not better. [[User:Victorianist|Victorianist]] ([[User talk:Victorianist|talk]]) 14:01, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

:::: Right, the policy you link to states the following: "External links or Internet directories. There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia. On articles about topics with many fansites, for example, including a link to one major fansite may be appropriate. See Wikipedia:External links for some guidelines." There is nothing excessive about linking to another tool that has the same stature and notability as some of the others here. I contend that the link I added to the table was "useful" and "content-relevant." There just aren't that many GUI testing tools in the world. There is no danger of it becoming a link farm. But you just go ahead and do what you like with the page. I'm done here. [[User:Victorianist|Victorianist]] ([[User talk:Victorianist|talk]]) 19:37, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

== Article nominated for deletion ==
This article has been nominated for deletion before, in 2007 and the consensus at that time was that it should be deleted. The "criteria" of notability proposed in the talk page and in hidden comments in the article itself is that that each link should point to an already existing article on Wikipedia, but this does not establish notability. The list contains red links and none of the listed items points to verifiable sources or to sources that establish notability. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Victorianist|Victorianist]] ([[User talk:Victorianist|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Victorianist|contribs]]) 04:30, 2 August 2014 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
: And the list was recreated in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_GUI_testing_tools&oldid=185164952 2008]. It currently only lists notable subjects despite your effort to turn it into a link farm and include other items. I really don't understand your logic.
: Notability applies to subjects, I'm not sure it applies to lists. [[User:Walter Görlitz|Walter Görlitz]] ([[User talk:Walter Görlitz|talk]]) 05:33, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
: Also, as I stated at the AfD page, the citation needed tags on each row are not related to whether the individual entry is or is not notable or reliably sourced simply that the attributes of each entry (testing system requirement, system under test requirement, GUI test, automation, and current version) is reliable information. It does not reflect whether the idea of such a list is or is not worthy of an article. [[User:Walter Görlitz|Walter Görlitz]] ([[User talk:Walter Görlitz|talk]]) 12:04, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
::I think that you're quibbling. The articles for each tools listed here will also be proposed for deletion. Hardly any of them meet the criteria of notability or verifiability. By your criteria, a GUI tool must merely have an article, whether or not the article is a quality article. If that logic were allowed to continue, Wikipedia would contain both garbage articles and garbage indexes. I was not trying to create a link farm. I was trying to add another link. I now see that you're right. Wikipedia should be held to a higher standard. A list such as this is useless because it's not complete and the tools that it does list are here just because they have an article about them, whatever their level of notability.

== Sikuli / SikuliX ==
I'm trying to get Sikuli in the list. I tried to add an article so it wouldn't be rejected here, but I noticed lots of people are having trouble getting an article created due to Wiki's "notability" policy. Sikuli's a pretty significant tool to be missing from the list, notwithstanding all this pedantic procedural stuff. I've consulted at a number of Fortune 100 companies, and lots of them are using it. --[[User:Jrounceville|Jrounceville]] ([[User talk:Jrounceville|talk]]) 22:28, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
: It's been added as an article, three times, but deleted due to lack of notability. The most recent discussion, [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sikuli]], was July 2014. Based on what I'm seeing online, it still fails [[:WP:GNG]] or any of the [[:WP:N|notability]] guidelines. WHile Fortune 100 companies may be using it, it's not use that determines notability, but people writing about it. It's not that they're using it, but how as well.

== GUI Testing Tools or General Testing Tools? ==
I came here because I have been doing research for my company on tools like these, but there are several tools on here now that are either only loosely related to GUIs, or not related at all. For example Ascentialtest is one. It is a regression testing tool as far as I can see, which has nothing to do with GUIs. There is also several web testing tools, where while web pages are GUIs, perhaps they should have their own category and list with a link to it at the bottom of this. e.g. "If you're looking for web testing tools, there is a list here:" After all, if you are looking for general GUI testing tools, a Web testing tool just doesn't cut it.
Just some feedback from me. I just had to make an account now, so I'll leave it to someone else in case people think I just came in here to troll. [[User:ChthonicOne|ChthonicOne]] ([[User talk:ChthonicOne|talk]]) 19:15, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
