  7. The Configure WPF Application Path window appears. There are two options to determine the default application to launch when recording and executing this test.
    • WPF Application Path - drag and drop the shortcut icon into this text box, or click Browse and locate it manually.
    • Current Path Expanded - read-only display of full path if environment variables are used.
    • Use default path - whether to use the path set here or the default path set in Project Settings > General.
    • Active WPF Applications - Telerik Test Studio detects all WPF apps currently running and lists them. Highlight the desired app and press Select Application. I used FamilyShow, available from http://vertigo.com/Lab.aspx.
    • Recording Options - whether to record window state changes.

      •  

  8. Hit Record to launch the app with the recording toolbar docked at the top.
