Recording bar
The Recording bar enables you to modify the User Path during the recording.
As soon as the Recording bar is displayed, the recording starts. The bar includes the following functions:
- Clicking the Stop button stops the recording and opens the Post-Recording wizard. See Post-recording wizard.
- Clicking the Pause button puts recording on hold. Clicking the Record button again resumes the recording.
- In the Record in drop-down menu, you can select a Transaction type into which the subsequent pages visited are to be recorded.
- Transaction is an editable dropdown list. It is automatically populated with Transactions of the User Path you want to update. You can also enter a Transaction name for the subsequent web pages to be recorded within that Transaction.
A Transaction is used to identify and collect a group of web pages. Delete the Transaction name to end the collection of new pages within the Transaction and to allow the creation of a new Transaction.
- Click the Next Transaction button to place the recorded web pages in the next Transaction of your predefined Transaction list.
- Click the Prefill button to define the Transaction names to use. NeoLoad can use the Transaction names coming from an existing User Path or from a .CSV or .TXT file (Separate each Transaction by a line break).
- Clicking the Insert a rendezvous point icon makes it possible to insert a rendezvous point. See Rendezvous.
- Tip: Using the Pause button temporarily stops the recording and allows searching on the Internet or other actions in the browser without recording.
- Warning: Init, Actions and End Container types follow a set order of play: 1. Init Container. 2. Actions Container. 3. End Container.
