The Badboy is a free Windows application that makes it simple for users to craft powerful, robust, and fully-fledged web applications. Offering built in software testing tool sets, users are able to test and develop completely complex websites without handling the nitty gritty details of deployment.

As all web developers know, software testing causes one of the biggest time gaps in the production to full scale deployment cycle. Often, large web development teams struggle to correctly implement a site in time, incurring the costs of wasted man hours, fatigue, and decreased site profitability.

Even after deployment, glitches, bugs, and poor site bandwidth can completely cause a service to crash. Most large scale sites need a full team of employees to make sure client access is ensured at all times.

Luckily, Badboy provides a large set of common software testing mechanisms that can help users keep their site up and running. Using abstracted scripts, Badboy can run automatic mechanisms that determine if there are website issues that need to be fixed.

Ultimately, Badboy lessens the need for manual labor in determining how well a site functions. To put it simply, Badboy is an integrated software testing suite that seamlessly locates when problems are likely to occur in development.

Through recording browser activity and utilizing automation tests, Badboy monitors all activity that occurs on a site during the deployment phase. It's possible for users to perform regression tests, functional tests, and site captures seamlessly.

During recording, the software even track performance statistics to see how site responsiveness changes dynamically as client traffic shifts. Badboy offers simple drag and drop script creation so that users don't have to waste time tinkering with code.

Some users complain that Badboy has compatibility issues with updated browsers, causing frequent crashes and poor testing integration. Badboy is recommended primarily for use with integrated Internet Explorer development environments.
