Recommendations for Recording

  1. Before recording
    • Plan the flow you would like to perform.
    • Try to first execute it without recording.
    • Keep your recording short. Don't record the whole test in one go.
  2. While recording
    • Click on the center of the Objects you would like to identify.
    • Wait for the screen to refresh and don't run the recording too quickly.
    • Right-click (with your mouse) to add verification points.
  3. After recording
    • Execute the script and verify it executes correctly.
    • Make sure that all Objects are identified correctly. Edit the test if needed to improve stability.
