Depending on the application under test and the testing environment, you might face different challenges while trying to perform
functional or regression tests against your application.
Micro Focus recommends the following best practices:
- To optimally use the functionality that
Silk Test Classic provides, create an individual project for each application that you want to test, except when testing multiple applications
in the same test.
- If you have a large test framework in place, consider using the keyword-driven testing approach.
-
Set the size of text and other items on the screen of the machine on which you are testing to the default value. When using
another setting than the default, you might experience coordinate offset issues during record and replay.
- If you are using
Microsoft Windows 7, you can change this setting under
.
- If you are using
Microsoft Windows 10, you can change this setting under
.
- If you cannot record a test against your application because
Silk Test Classic cannot recognize the objects in the application or because
Silk Test Classic recognizes all objects in the application as
Control, you could try to use the Microsoft UI Automation support by enabling the
Enable UI Automation option in
Silk Test Classic. For additional information, see
UI Automation.
