Recording Window Declarations for the Main Window and Menu Hierarchy
Start your application.
Click
File > New in
Silk Test Classic.
Click
Test Frame and then click
OK.
Silk Test Classic displays the
New Test Frame dialog box.
If you are using the Open Agent, follow the appropriate wizard to select your application, depending on whether you want to
test an application that uses a Web browser or not.
When you have stepped through the wizard, the
Choose name and folder of the new frame file dialog box opens.
In the
Frame filename (Classic Agent) or the
File name (Open Agent) text box, accept the default test frame name (frame.inc), or type a new name.
By default,
Silk Test Classic names the new test frame file
frame.inc, denoting it is an include file that contains declarations. If you change the default name of the file, make sure to include
the file extension .inc in the new file name. If you do not, the file is not identified to
Silk Test Classic as an include file and
Silk Test Classic will give it a .txt extension and report a compilation error when you click
OK to create the file.
If you are using the Classic Agent, select your application from the
Application list box.
The
Application list box displays all applications that are open and not minimized. If your test application is not listed, click
Cancel, open your application, and click
File > New again.
Click
OK (Classic Agent) or
Save (Open Agent).
Silk Test Classic creates the new test frame file. Window declarations display in the test plan editor, which means that the declarations for
individual GUI objects can be expanded to show detail, collapsed to hide detail, and edited if necessary.
