## General Sprinter advantages

Because both Sprinter and Business Process Testing are fully integrated with ALM, you can benefit from all Sprinter functionality, including:

- creating and annotating screen captures

- capturing movies of your run

- recording and running macros on your test application

- automatically entering data into fields in your application

- automatically including the list of your steps or user actions in any defect you submit

- replicating your user actions on multiple machines with different configurations

You can use all this functionality without interrupting the flow of your manual business process test.
