Ensure that you have configured the application configuration file and created a unit test project before you start recording transactions. Refer to Configuring to Record and Creating a Unit Test Project for more information.
Note: The global settings file is automatically generated on performing System Modeler operations, such as recording or generating a C# file.
In the Connect mode, start recording in System Modeler first and then launch the client application. You can refer to the recorded steps in the New SMTest window in this mode.
To record a new test case in the Connect mode, perform the following:
Modify the application configuration file and ensure that the recording mode is set to Connect. Refer to Configuring to Record for more information.
Create a new Unit Test Project for the test case. Refer to Creating a Unit Test Project for more information.
From the ATT menu, select Record to start recording the transactions.
Start the client application and perform transactions. For every transaction, System Modeler adds a new test step to the SMTest case and records the input data.
From the ATT menu, select Stop when you complete the transactions to be recorded.
You can back up any System Modeler recording as a test project (.bck file) and then restore it into a System Modeler environment on a different machine. See Performing Backup of AB Suite Solutions for more information.
