[Update 2022] AltUnity Tester becomes AltTester Unity SDK starting with v. 1.8.0 and similarly, AltUnity Inspector becomes AltTester Desktop starting with v. 1.5.0 and they are both available here.
This comes with a series of major changes:
1. AltTester Unity SDK is now available only through our website and is no longer available on the Unity Asset Store

AltUnity Tester 1.6.3 is now released and can be downloaded from the Unity Asset Store. The main focus of this release was to expand selectors capabilities to cover more testing scenarios we and the community needed in our test environments. Uniquely identify elements by id, indexer selector to select N-th child, multiple attribute filters for a more granular By.PATH selector, new By.TEXT selector; are the main features added to selectors. We’ve also added a couple of By.PATH examples in the documentation to flatten the learning curve.
- Uniquely identify elements: We’ve added the ability to set unique AltId to all static elements. Each element is assigned the AltUnityId component containing a static unique Id, preserved between runs, which you can use to uniquely identify elements between test runs. To add AltId to every object in your game go to UnityEditor -> AltUnity Tools -> AddAltIdToEveryObject. From the Inspector window in Unity Editor you can find Alt Unity Script attached to every object and use the provided Alt ID in the Find By.Id selectors.
- Indexer selector: Select N-th child: FindObject(By.PATH, “//parentName[1]”)
- By.PATH multiple attribute filter: Find an object that has a specific tag and a specific component: FindObject(By.PATH, “//objectName[@tag=expected tag value][@component=expected component name”)
- By.TEXT selector: Search objects by their text value: FindObject(By.TEXT, “expected text content”) is equivalent to FindObject(By.PATH, “//*[@text=expected text content]”)

Another important update regarding AltUnity Tools, is a new support as a service product which we recently added to our website. You can now schedule a meeting and have a one-to-one support session with one of our developers/test automation engineers. We offer support with AltUnity setup, getting started with writing the first tests, advanced configuration, debugging, etc. You can read more about this here.
