About API Adapters


This chapter documents the three APIs you use to develop adapters that extend the API recording and script generation method. These adapters are started when a Robot user selects API recording from the Method tab of the Session Record Options dialog box. These APIs are described in the following table:

API Description
API Recorder Adapter API Extends the Robot API recording to a new target and a new type of traffic. An API Recorder Adapter includes a recording component that uses the calls documented in Chapter 4, and requires a Generator Filter Adapter and a corresponding API Script Generator Adapter.
Generator Filter Adapter API Directs scriptable functions recorded by an API Recorder Adapter to a corresponding API Script Generator Adapter.
API Script Generator Adapter API Generates a test script(s) from recorded functions in a session file.
