Thanks for asking about this feature DalbyB.

Test validation in a record/play context like eValid's is a way to record in the current test script information that you want checked during playback.

This is the essence of regression testing:

If the same results happen in playback -- at a later time -- the test Passes.

If the results fail in one or more ways the test FAILs.

Remember, eValid is a robot so you have to tell it what you mean to have true [in the future] if you want it to tell you if something is goofed up.

* How To Validate Document Properties:

(1) From the eValid pull-down, select "eValid > Record Mode > Validate > Document > .." during record mode in order to capture the commands in the script.

(2) The User will have choices as to what element of the document to be validated such as URL, Elements, Byte Size, Last Modified Date, & All Document Properties.

* How to Validate Selected Elements in a Page:

(1) From the eValid pull-down, select "eValid > Record Mode > Validate > Selected > .." during record mode in order to capture the commands in the script.

(2) The user can validate the selected image by capturing the name of the image and by comparing it with the one which was downloaded during playback.

To validate the image, select it and hit "Ctrl + Shift + I"

(3) The user also has the option of Validating the Selected Text.

This is the most common validation function that is used in eValid.

The user basically highlights the text to be validated and hit "Ctrl + T" to copy the selected text in the script window and will be compared to the text captured during playback.

(4) Validate Selected Table Cell is done by validating the contents and the index value of the selected table cell.

To validate the table cell, select it and hit "Ctrl + Shift + T"

* How to Validate All Elements in a Page

(1) The Validate All Elements Command is similar to the previous commands because all it does is capture all similar elements in a page (e.g. Images, Text, Etc.) and validates them, thus eliminating the need to select each and every element to be validated.

(2) To validate all the documents images, select "eValid > Record Mode > Validate > All > Images" or simply press "Ctrl + Shift + J" and all images in the page you are currently recording on will automatically be added to the list generated in the script.

(3) If there are any Applets in the page and you would like to validate it, you can use the "Validate All Applets" to record it in the script and validate on playback.

(4) To Validate All Element Id's in a document, select "eValid > Record Mode > Validate > All > Element ID's" or simply press "Ctrl + Shift + D".
