6. Adding the Record-Time Action's Info to the Description File

Applies to TestComplete 15.47, last modified on January 20, 2023

Now we can add information about the record-time action to the description file.

Open the description.xml file in your XML or text editor and add the following code to it:

XML

[description.xml]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ScriptExtensionGroup Name = "My Extensions">
  <Category Name = "Checkpoints">

    <ScriptExtension Name = "Clipboard Checkpoint" Author = "SmartBear Software" Version = "1.0 test" HomePage = "smartbear.com">
      <Script Name = "clcCode.js">
          <RecordAction Name = "Clipboard Checkpoint" Icon = "clc-icon.bmp" Routine = "RecordExecute"/>
      </Script>
      <Description>
        Provides support for clipboard checkpoints.
      </Description>
    </ScriptExtension>

  </Category>
</ScriptExtensionGroup>

As you can see, we added the RecordAction element. These elements are used to declare record-time actions. We specified the following values for the element’s attributes:

Attribute  Value Description
Name Clipboard Checkpoint  The caption of the item that TestComplete will add to the Recording toolbar.
Icon clc-icon.bmp The file name of the item’s icon.
Routine RecordExecute The name of the script routine that is executed when a user selects the Clipboard Checkpoint item from the Recording toolbar.
