Record > Wizards > Form Test Wizard

The goal of this facility is to create a test script that:

Touches all radio buttons on the form in sequence, always touching the bottom-most one last;
Touches all push buttons on the form in sequence, always touching the bottom-most one last;
Touches all selection buttons on the form in sequence, always touching the bottom-most one last;
Types a preset text into all areas on the form (using the current contents of the user-defined environment variable $eVFORMFILL).

The resulting recording file can be used to test the form.

The text passage supplied by the user is set up by pre-setting the environment variable $eVFORMFILL. The appropriate sized part of that text passage is used for the declared size of each text window, and the string is repeated if necessary to fill up the window to the specified maximum size. If there is no maximum size then only a single instance of the string stored in the environment variable $eVFORMFILL.

The Form Wizard's test of a page includes filling in all of the blanks, clicking on all of the buttons, exercising all of the options, and then clicking on the SUBMIT button.

When typing information into a form, note that nothing is recorded until you click on the SUBMIT button. However, if you click on RESET FORM and then retype you will see, during playback, the original typing and the final typing.

Here is a sample generated script file:
