how to execute test script from opened browser

[Dalsingh]

How to execute a Test Script from a opened browser in my system. I don't want the Telerik to Invoke a browser automatically.

E.g.
Step 1 - Login is performed, now I have the application logged in. (Login Script)
Step 2 - Logout from the application by cliecking logout link in the dashboard. (Logout Script)

If I try to run a script its automatically invoking the another browser. But the script should work on the already opened browser by the Login Script.

Any suggestions please.

Thanks & Regards,
Dalsingh

Hello Dalsingh,

You need to turn the "RecycleBrowser" option in order to use single browser instance for all tests in the TestList. Just follow this steps:

1. Go to the TestLists tab
2. Select the TestList you will use
3. Click the "Edit Settings" button
4. Check the "RecycleBrowser" field(see attachment)

Hope this helps. 

Sincerely yours,

Yes it workz... Thanks.!!!

But I have a question, how to execute the script on the already opened browser.
For E.g. I want to run only the Logout Script. (the precondition is the Application already in the Logged-in page)

Any settings we need to do to run/execute the script on the open browser.

Hello Dalsingh,

No you cannot start the run from already opened browser,  what you can do is:
1.Define a Manual step then start the test run 
2. Then do some manual actions and when you are done let the test finish.

All the best,

Hi Narayana,

You can execute steps in a currently loaded browser if it has the recording toolbar attached. Use the Run > Selected Steps feature from the Test Step Context Menu. Ensure you select the desired steps first with Shift or Ctrl + Click.
