To build and run any test, you always perform certain operations: Create a new automated test Add steps to an automated test Run an automated test View the progress of automated tests View test results You perform other operations often, but not necessarily for every test. For tests involving form steps, you might need to View results screenshots from an automated test. For some tests, you might need to know about Passing data from one automated test step to another. Some steps frequently occur in the same sequence in many different tests, so you can Add a predefined list of steps (template) to an automated test.
