Record & Playback

The Record & Playback feature facilitates the process of mapping the steps of an existing UML diagram with the real steps of an application. It is a helper in the process of model and map, which you should use with the rest of H-TEST tools.

Selenium IDE is an extension of Chrome or Firefox that allows you to record, edit and execute tests, also known as Selenium Recorder.

Installation

Install Selenium IDE from either the Chrome or Firefox web store. Selenium IDE records multiple locators for each element it interacts with. Through the use of the run command, you can re-use one test case insidie of another.

Upon launching the IDE you will be presented with a welcome dialog.

This will give you quick access to the following options:

You can import Selenium IDE record saved file to in the Tast Web.

On the first Selenium Record version you can only import created steps to the previously. Created diagram must contains two adapters Objects User and GUI adaptor. Every new command imported from selenium Record file will be converted to the Tast function and creates and insert message after last diagram message if it proceeds. The import button for Selenium Record functionality you can find it in the Tast Web top right corner. For the start import you have to select generated record.side file, Domain, Project, Folder and Diagram.

The next Selenium Record version will permit import generated record.side file without previously created user diagram for the first time.
