Hi
Dale,
Thank you for your patience.
We were able to test this scenario with the MTM and also compare it to the recording that can be done in a CodedUI test. You can check the attached project where you can find two tests - one with actions recorded in Coded UI test and one generated from MTM test case.
So after my testing I can confirm that the controls are located\recognized by the MTM and the generated code is very similar to the one generated by the CodedUI recorder. Also as far as I can tell the MTM action recorder is very similar(if not the same) as the CodedUI recorder as in my testing they behaved the same way.
Please note that, we recommend to use our CodedUI extensions while recording actions in the MTM, by adding them in the Visual Studio folder and GAC as explained in
this help article. This way you would avoid any future mismatch with the CodedUI test and get the benefit of smart actions(Level 4 support) of some of our controls. Also as with MS controls you would need to record your verification in the CodedUI test as only action recordings are generated.
If you have other questions or you face any issues, please don't hesitate to write us.
Regards,
Georgi
