Recording test case steps with QA Wizard Pro

If you use QA Wizard Pro, you can record test case steps instead of manually entering them. To record steps, you interact with applications the same as when you record scripts from QA Wizard Pro. The actions are automatically entered as steps in a new test case in Helix ALM. Recording steps saves time when you need to document longer tests and reduces the possibility of incorrect or incomplete test cases.

Note:  QA Wizard Pro 2012.0 or later must be installed on the computer running Helix ALM.

1. Choose Create > Test Case from QA Wizard Pro.

QA Wizard Pro starts and the Record New Test Case dialog box opens.

2. Select the application to record against or click New to add an application.

Select Connect to running application to record against an instance of a Windows application running on the test computer.

3. Click Record.

The application starts and the Recording New Test Case toolbar opens.

4. Navigate through the application, performing the actions you want to record.

5. Click the Stop Recording toolbar button.

The Add Test Case dialog box opens and the recorded steps are displayed. A screenshot is attached to each step.

6. Enter the test case Summary, Type, and any additional information, including expected results. You can modify the steps before saving the test case. See Adding test cases.

7. Click Add when you finish entering the test case information.

The test case is saved and added to the project.
