The following illustration shows the five major functional elements of the OTF:
- OTX Designer
- Screen Designer
- Database Module
- Test Environment
- Runtime environment
The Workflow Designer (OTX Designer) is the main input element. It gives the author an easy-to-understand graphical view of the OTX-data in the form of a generic flow diagram. Goal: The author can simply understand and comprehend the whole test sequence from the graphical representation (e.g. for printing on A0 paper).
With the help of Screen-Designers , surfaces (screens) are drawn for the input and output parameters and bound to the processes.
The Database Module is mainly responsible for reading and writing OTX data, validation, object searching and reference management.

The Test Environment is used to run and test the sequences in the development environment (e.g. for debugging or unit testing framework).
The OTX Runtime executes the sequences both within the development environment, and within a runtime environment (e.g. in the garage or in the EOL programming).
