You can record a test from an Android or iOS application
on a mobile device, a simulator on which the mobile client is installed,
or from the test workbench.
Recording tests from the Android mobile test client
Mobile tests are typically created by recording a session on the mobile
device or simulator that runs the app being tested. At the end of the recording session, you close
the app and the recorded session is uploaded to the test workbench, where it is used to generate a test.
Recording tests from the iOS mobile test client
Mobile tests are typically created by recording a session on the mobile
device or simulator that runs the app being tested. At the end of the recording session, you close
the app and the recorded session is uploaded to the test workbench, where it is used to generate a test.
Recording tests from the test workbench
When you initiate the recording from the Rational® Test Workbench Mobile
Test Edition, the recording does not start until you
open an app in the mobile client.
Creating a test manually
The simple way to create a test is to record it so that
the test is automatically generated. But, if you want to create an
empty test and add each element manually, you can choose to create
a test manually.
