In the example below, I illustrate a case where I opened msn.com and searched for a string – an extra mouse hover has been recorded over the search text box. </font></p> <p><a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_1072F/image_2.png"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="image" border="0" alt="image" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_1072F/image_thumb.png" width="304" height="345" /></a> </p> <p><font color="#000080">Now, there are 2 options:</font></p> <p><font color="#000080">1. Don’t edit the recording –  since the tool is smart enough to ignore failed hovers during playback and won’t interfere with your test playing back.</font></p> <p><font color="#000080">2. Edit the recording and delete the extra action – this is useful in cases where the extra action(s) are to dismiss one-time dialogs like the “Do you want to remember passwords” dialog for IE that can be suppressed for future times. Now, if you encounter that dialog during record, but are sure you won’t hit it during playback, you can delete this action from your recording. </font></p> <p><font color="#000080">Just expand the section at the bottom of MTR to reveal the list of actions being recorded. Select the action to delete and right click –> delete action. There you go – your recording will now be devoid of the extra action.</font></p><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9932422" width="1" height="1">VS2010Manual Test RunnerWhat's new for manual testers in VS2010 Beta2?http://blogs.msdn.com/anutthara/archive/2009/11/12/what-s-new-for-manual-testers-in-vs2010-beta2.aspxThu, 12 Nov 2009 10:20:00 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9921279anutthara0http://blogs.msdn.com/anutthara/comments/9921279.aspxhttp://blogs.msdn.com/anutthara/commentrss.aspx?PostID=9921279<P><FONT color=navy>I just gave a talk with the same title at Virtual Tech Days 2010. Deck and videos shared on my <A href="http://cid-2779e0ac1e14a80b.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public" mce_href="http://cid-2779e0ac1e14a80b.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public">skydrive</A></FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#000080>It's always fun to talk about your product.

Now, when I open it at any other time, it might read “<STRONG>Inbox(36) - Microsoft Internet Explorer</STRONG>” based on unread mail. For GUI testers, this poses a problem since object identification works usually on the basis of window title and the title changing each time I run the test causes object identification to fail. :(</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#000080>To solve this problem, the API of VSTS 2010 has a “Smart Match” feature built into it.

So, we integrated this bug tracking system with MTR so that you can file bugs with a single click from the runner itself. What's the big deal about this you might ask?</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0>Well, the big deal is that we not just create a bug for you from the runner itself, we also populate it with the test case that you have just been executing when you opened the bug. And that too in this neat little repro steps control with a tab of its own in the bug form. (Yes, we modified the MSF template to include some extra tabs in the default bug) So, all comments that the tester has written, notes she has taken, attachments that she has made are all uploaded automatically to the bug from the first step to the last <EM>failed </EM>step.</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0></FONT><A href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Repro%20Steps_2.jpg" mce_href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Repro%20Steps_2.jpg"><IMG style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" height=359 alt="Repro Steps" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Repro%20Steps_thumb.jpg" width=340 border=0 mce_src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Repro%20Steps_thumb.jpg"></A>  </P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0>Now, how often have you hit a bug during testing that would just repro on your test machine but simply would not repro on the dev machine. And how often has it turned out that it was a configuration related issue - different service packs, different CPU usage, different memories, the list is endless. To ensure that the developer gets a complete picture of the environment where the bug was actually produced, we fill in system information about the test machine automatically into the newly created bug. Check out the "system info" tab within the bug form:</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0></FONT> <A href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Sys%20Info_2.jpg" mce_href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Sys%20Info_2.jpg"><IMG style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" height=370 alt="Sys Info" src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Sys%20Info_thumb.jpg" width=346 border=0 mce_src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/Sys%20Info_thumb.jpg"></A> </P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0>Now, even with all of these, what if the developer still cannot repro the bug? Perhaps it was a domain expert that filed the bug and not a technical tester. He/she may not have noticed subtleties that might have affected the system and caused the bug. Or the bug repro steps or description maybe woefully inadequate for the developer to produce a reasonable repro. In such cases, the video recording that the runner makes in the background during all test execution, will be considerably useful. Playing back the video will give the developer a very detailed and accurate picture of the exact steps leading up to the bug. This video is filed as an attachment to the bug</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0>What if the test itself took 10 long minutes. Now, the failure is in the last step perhaps. The developer may want to look at only the failed step instead of the whole long video. Video markers are the way to go for that. Each time the tester marks a test step in the test case, a video marker is inserted with that timestamp in the video file. These markers are then populated against the test steps in the repro steps of a bug filed via the runner. When I click on these markers, I can play back <EM>from the point </EM>where the previous step was marked. This gives the developer finer control over what portions of the video file may be useful.</FONT></P> <P><A href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/details_4.jpg" mce_href="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/details_4.jpg"><IMG style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px" height=189 alt=details src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/details_thumb_1.jpg" width=363 border=0 mce_src="http://blogs.msdn.com/blogfiles/anutthara/WindowsLiveWriter/GSJGD_E23/details_thumb_1.jpg"></A>  </P> <P><FONT color=#0000a0>So, how do you like our actionable bug?
