Overview

To replay a sequence of events, multiple ideas exist:

  • Send events through operating system
    preferred method since tester and tested application are completly separate
    Problem: How to test assertions on the running application
  • Let Vision2 act as a server and send events and assertions over network
    generates overhead but is flexible
    Problem: Checking assertions over network might not be easy
  • Compile the replay sequence and the player together with the application
    easiest method to check assertions since the tester has full access to the application
    Problem: Compile application for each test or compile all tests into the application
