Start building your test suite and get up to speed in no time with the Test Studio's visual test recorder, supporting cross browser testing. With highly intuitive click and record functionality, recording steps has never been easier, regardless if you are building tests from scratch or converting existing manually created ones. To take advantage of Test Studio's cross browser testing capabilities, simply record your tests and then execute them against your browsers of choice.

• Build actions and verifications using a single mouse click. Highlight any visible element on the page and record mouse action or build a quick verification against it.
• Creating wait, extract and drag&drop steps, and simulating JavaScript events is easy through the rich context menu.
• To ease maintenance, all recorded elements are automatically added in the shared element repository.

By creating automation elements that use both web locators and images, flaky and fragile tests are a problem of the past.

• Create powerful and rich web queries by using the technologies you know. Supported locators are CSS selectors, HTML attributes, Tag names, XPath and combinations of the above.
• Element image is automatically set for each element. When it is time for test execution, elements in your application will be located by the powerful image comparison engine and the web query built for that element.
• The hybrid element detection approach significantly lowers the probability of failure and allows you to perform maintenance in your own time.
• Image first strategy. Prioritize element location by image only for situations where it’s impossible to create a stable web query.

Responsive web design is crucial to the success of your applications today. But testing each release for device compatibility can be a tedious task for your entire team. Test Studio helps you future-proof your application’s responsive web design for the modern mobile world with responsive web testing.

Check your responsive web application’s behavior under different form factors without repetitive manual tasks or device switching. Make sure your website scales when the screen size or resolution changes and check its layout and behavior. To simulate different browsers, simply choose from several predefined screen sizes or create the custom ones that you need for your responsive test scenarios.
