Myriax is an award winning local software producer with a large international
market and in a phase of growth hoping to establish positive relationships with
emerging talent in the Hobart IT sector.
Echoview, our flagship product, is a software tool used by scientists in combination
with hydroacoustic equipment for advanced analysis of the echo data. This is
most commonly for the purpose of biomass estimation in the field or behavioural
analysis of marine species.
The user interface is currently examined once ever three month manually in a
process that consumes roughly two person weeks of effort and is particularly
prone to human error. We seek to automate this process.
Desired is a tool which can either by accessing the windows interface directly
and/or in combination with the COM interface Echoview exposes traverses the
user interface diagnosing consistency with previous traversals and flagging
changes in such a way that those changes can in turn be indicated as expected
and a desirable outcome of development.
It should require minimal setup and configuration and be maximally autonomous,
able to run on demand, overnight on a server if need be, producing a summary
of results useful for feedback to the development team.
C# is the envisaged language and Visual Studio the envisaged environment. Echoview is written in Borland C++ and exposes a COM interface which exposes part of its user interface and can be extended as needed.
An IP agreement will be required.
