During playback, Functional Tester compares objects in the application-under-test
with recognition properties in the test object map. You use the ScriptAssure(TM)
Standard page to control object-matching sensitivity during playback. This
feature enables you to successfully play back scripts when the application-under-test
has been updated.
The ScriptAssure(TM) Standard page has the following controls:
Recognition
Level -- Controls the level of recognition when identifying objects
during script playback. To decrease tolerance for differences between the
object in the application-under-test and the recognition properties, move
the slider toward Strict. To increase the tolerance
for differences, move the slider toward Tolerant.
- The maximum Strict setting indicates that objects
must be an almost exact match. If only one important recognition property
is wrong, Functional Tester recognizes the object as a match after exhausting
all other possibilities. An object with more than one wrong recognition property
is not a match.
- The maximum Tolerant setting indicates that Functional
Tester selects an object with somewhat similar properties immediately.
- The default setting allows two important recognition properties to be
wrong but still is a match if all other possibilities are exhausted. An object
with more than two wrong recognition properties is not a match.
Warning Level -- Specifies when to be warned
about differences between the object and the recognition properties. To increase
the number of warnings, move the slider toward High.
To decrease the number of warnings, move the slider toward None.
- The maximum High setting writes a warning to
the test log of almost any difference. (Functional Test does not issue a warning
when the difference is the browser.)
- The maximum None setting omits warnings to the
test log of differences.
- With the default setting, Functional Tester writes a warning to the test
log whenever it finds a test object after the maximum time has elapsed during
playback.
Advanced -- Displays the Advanced
ScriptAssure Preferences page, which enables advanced users to set thresholds
for recognition scores.
