In test automation development, testers may spent a lot of time in finding out what happened when the scripts was running. Currently, testers can only capture screen as still image, or by record some log message , so when debugging, they have to analyze the log message and check the screen shot. But these methods are time consuming, and may not be quick enough.
it will be good if Ranorex provides some tool which can record the screen as some kind of movie. There are quite a few free sw to do this, but they are not feasible for test automation, as they may consume too much resource (CPU time, memory, etc), and file size is very huge. What can be think of, is a ranorex tool which can record screen activities in a native format file, and it can be play back latter using this tool, or even convert to std movie files (e.g, avi, wmv, etc). And it should support command line synatax, so automation test script can trigger this tool in runtime.
Hope I make myself clear. Thanks
