Using Checkpoints

Checkpoints help you verify the tested application is working as expected. Checkpoints verify that attributes of an application exist or are correct when compared to an expected value during playback. For example, a checkpoint can verify that a drop-down list includes the correct number of values.

If the property or image you are verifying does not exist or match the expected value or image during playback, the checkpoint fails. You can configure the failure behavior to stop or continue playback and display an error or warning in the Errors pane.

You can create window, control, and exists checkpoints during or after recording. Image and OCR checkpoints can only be created after recording. See Checkpoint types for additional information and examples.

Note: You can also use checkpoints to verify if expressions are true and substrings are part of text strings.
