Define a remote debugging address for each Web application to enable UFT One to find your application objects.

To define a remote connection:

    The port required for this URL is defined by the developer during application design.

  2. Select the Connect checkbox to establish the connection when you start recording.

  3. Set the framework.

    • If you are testing objects developed using NW.js, in the Framework column select NW.js.

    • If you are testing objects developed using Microsoft Edge WebView2, in the Framework column select WebView2.

    • For other frameworks, leave this field defined as Default.

Add as many connections as you need. To remove a connection, select it in the table, and click Delete .
