Record/Playback Approach

Record & playback is a great feature in almost all automation tools. It works flawlessly on any static webpage (although record/playback can be used on many other interfaces, but for simplicity we will limit our discussion to a webpage).
But, what if its not a static page? What if, you want to test application with different data types?...the list is endless..

Some of the points that I would like to note are:


  1. Look for dynamic locators in HTML. Sometimes, these appear n cookies & you can comment them.
  2. Flow-control cannot be implemented manually
  3. Parameterization to execute using different data points has to be taken care separately
