Configuring the Insurance Company Web Application

When you configure an application, Silk Test Classic automatically creates a base state for the application. An application’s base state is the known, stable state that you expect the application to be in before each test begins execution, and the state the application can be returned to after each test has ended execution.

Click Configure Applications on the Basic Workflow bar. If you do not see Configure Applications on the Basic Workflow bar, ensure that the default Agent is set to the Open Agent. The Select Application dialog box opens.
Select the Web tab.
Select Internet Explorer.
In the Enter URL to navigate text box, type the URL of the web application that you want to test. For example, type http://demo.borland.com/gmoajax.
Click OK.
The Choose name and folder of the new frame file page opens. Silk Test Classic configures the recovery system and names the corresponding file frame.inc by default.
Navigate to the location in which you want to save the frame file.
In the File name field, type the name for the frame file that contains the default base state and recovery system. Then, click Save. Silk Test Classic automatically creates a base state for the application. By default, Silk Test Classic lists the caption of the main window of the application as the locator for the base state. When you configure an application, Silk Test Classic adds an include file based on the technology or browser type that you enable to the Use files location in the Runtime Options dialog box. For instance, if you configure an application that uses one of the supported browsers, Silk Test Classic adds the xBrowser.inc file to the Runtime Options dialog box.

Silk Test Classic opens the Web page. Record the test case whenever you are ready.
