Web UI test creation

You can create Web UI tests by using the recording option or the empty test option in the HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub). Test Hub automatically enables web browsers and provides DevOps Test Runtime or the recording agent to configure the test environment before you start recording tests for web applications.

You can create tests for the web applications that you have already configured in Test Editor. When you create a test, a .dtx.yaml file is created and listed in the test navigator panel. Test Hub captures mouse and keyboard actions that the user performs to interact with the web pages when you record a test. Test Hub supports the following HTML5 controls on the web pages:
  • Text box
  • Password field
  • Text area
  • Button
  • Checkbox
  • Drop-down list
  • Date selector
  • Radio button
  • Slider
Test Hub also supports the use of multiple tabs and multiple windows to record a test.
