To be able to observe Test Steps, you must:
define an AUT (Section 3.7, “Defining applications under test (AUTs)”)
![]() |
Only Java AUTs can use the observation mode. |
configure an AUT (Section 3.8.1, “Configuring AUTs to be started from the ITE”) if you want to start it from the ITE.
start the AUT you want to observe from (Section 3.21.2, “Starting the AUT”) (either via a configuration (Section 3.8.1, “Configuring AUTs to be started from the ITE”) or using the autrun command (Section 3.8.4.6, “Starting Java AUTs with the autrun command”)).
Once you have completed these steps, you can select the
”observe Test Case” button
on the main toolbar.
When asked, enter a name for the observed Test Case.
The status bar will show that you are in the observation mode.
A Test Case Editor for the observed Test Case will appear.
Switch to the AUT and activate it by clicking once in the title bar.
You can now observe Test Steps.

If you have a Test Case open in the Test Case Editor, the Test Steps will be observed into this open Test Case. |
