Working with lists

[Paul]

Hi,

I'm very new to Telerik so I'm just looking for a little help.

I want to create a list of scripts to run. I've only created two scripts so far but when I place them in the list tool and execute them, the browser opens each time and as as a consequence fails my second script. I want the second script to run after the completion of the first script. The first script opens the browser and logs the user on, but then I want the second script to click on a few buttons, etc. Am I using the list control correctly? Or is there a way of preventing the browser openning for the second and subsequent scripts?

Thank you,

Paul

Hi Paul,

We expose a setting to accomplish that -- look for RecycleBrowser. You can read more on that on the blogs here. In the QA Edition you can change the TestList Settings to enable the "browser recycling".

The Login + actions is a typical scenario to automate. We recommend using the TestAsStep feature of WebUI Test Studio to achieve that. You can record the login part in one test and then add this test as a step to any other (or all) of your other tests. This way if you need to change the login part due to some update in the UI (or provided credentials, whatever) you do it in a single test only.

You can find the "Add a test as step" option in the QA Edition's RecordView tab as shown in the attached image.

Best wishes,
