Recording Test Cases in the Disconnect Mode

Recording in the Disconnect mode is optional. It is simple and useful if you want to record directly without starting Visual Studio. You can execute transactions on the client applications which are then recorded in the XML file specified in the configuration file. You can later edit the test case in System Modeler Test List Editor. The recording progress is not visible in System Modeler.

To record a test case in the Disconnect mode, perform the following:

  1. Modify the application configuration file and ensure that the recording mode is set to Disconnect. Refer to Configuring to Record for more information.

  2. Start the client application and perform transactions on the application.

  3. Close the session or directly close the application.

System Modeler automatically creates a test case file that records the transactions and input information as test steps. The test file is saved in the location specified in the application configuration file.

Note: Multiple sessions cannot be recorded for a client application.
