User interface elements are described below:
UI Element |
Description |
---|---|
Create a new Page test object for
These options instruct OpenText Functional Testing when to create a new Page object in the object repository while recording. |
|
Create a new Frame test object for
These options instruct OpenText Functional Testing when to create a new Frame object in the object repository while recording. The Frame options are similar to the Page options (except that the Every navigation option is not available). |
|
Every navigation |
Instructs OpenText Functional Testing to create a new Page object every time a navigation is performed in a Web page. (Relevant only for Create a new Page test object for.) |
Different test object descriptions |
Instructs OpenText Functional Testing to create a new Page test object for pages with different test object descriptions, according to the properties defined for the Page test object. The default test object description for Page objects includes only the test object class. If you select this option, it is highly recommended that you define object description properties that uniquely identify different Page objects. You should also ensure that the properties you define remain constant over time, otherwise future runs may fail. |
Different URLs or a change in data transfer |
Instructs OpenText Functional Testing to create a new Page object only when the page URL changes, or if the URL stays the same and data that is transferred to the server changes, according to the data types and transfer methods you select:
|
Use additional Page information |
Instructs OpenText Functional Testing to use additional properties of the test object to identify an existing Page test object. Select this option to instruct OpenText Functional Testing to recognize existing pages when the Back and Forward navigation buttons are used. |
Reset All |
Resets all options to their default core settings. Some Web-based add-ins modify the default settings to optimize page and frame recording. If you are using an add-in, we recommend keeping the default add-in settings and do not use the Reset button. |
