Creating a New Browser Action recording

Prerequisites You must use the Firefox Browser to create a Test Clip by recording browser actions. Download the Browser Recorder Extension
Creating a New Browser Action takes place in the SOASTA CloudTest Clip Editor. To create a new Test Clip, go to the Repository page in SOASTA Central and select Test Clips. Click the “New” button.
The SOASTA CloudTest Clip Editor will be displayed. Choose the WebUI/Ajax target that you wish to test from the “Available Targets” list. In this example, we will use the “Wikipedia Target”.
WebUIAjax targets are identified by this icon.
The Web page that you are testing appears in the middle section of the SOASTA CloudTest Clip Editor. You are now ready to start recording.
As you take browser actions in the Web page being tested, they will be added to the SOASTA CloudTest Test Clip. Some typical browser actions are clicking on links and typing in inputs. Start by clicking on the “English” option on the Wikipedia page.
The following click action will appear in the SOASTA CloudTest Test Clip.
Click on the “Search” box in the Wikipedia page.
Type in a search word such as “SOASTA” and the following browser actions will be recorded. As you continue to take browser actions in the Wikipedia page, they will continue to be added to the SOASTA CloudTest Test Clip. While recording, you can edit the SOASTA CloudTest Test Clip by deleting unwanted browser actions or duplicating actions to create new ones.
