You can export an application to create a backup copy, share it with other users, or move it to a different location or computer. If you want to share a script with another user, but you are not using a shared repository, you must export the application and include it with the script. The other user must import the application before using the script.
Note: Exporting and importing is the recommended method for backing up application repositories and moving them to different locations or computers. This helps eliminate the risk of losing or corrupting files, which may occur when copying files directly in Windows Explorer.
1. Select the application to export in the Application Repository pane.
2. Choose Repository > Export Application.
The Export Application dialog box opens.
3. Select the file location, enter a file name, and click Save.
Another Export Application dialog box opens.
4. Review the File path and name for the exported application or click Browse to make any changes.
5. Select Include images to export screenshots captured during recording.
6. Click OK.
The application is exported. Exported applications are saved with a .qawapp extension.
