Recording in an existing script

With Functional Tester, you can start recording at the cursor location in the current script, which enables you to start applications, insert verification points, and add script support functions.

To start recording in an existing Functional Tester script:

  1. Place the cursor in the script where you want to begin recording.
  2. Start recording in either of these ways:
    • In the Functional Tester menu, click Script > Insert Recording.
    • In the Functional Tester toolbar, click the Insert Recording into Active Functional Test Script button Insert Recording into Active Functional Tester Script button.

    Functional Tester opens the Recording Monitor and starts recording.

  3. To start your test application, on the Recording toolbar click the Start Application button Start Application button.
  4. Perform any actions in the application.
    • To record a verification point, locate the object in your application you want to test and click the Insert Verification Point or Action Command button.
    • To insert any features, such as a call script command, log entry, timer, script delay command, or comment into the script, click the Insert Script Support Commands button.
  5. Close your application, if you want closing the application to be part of the script.
  6. When you are finished recording, click the Stop Recording button. The Functional Tester window is restored and the script is displayed.
