    Announcing Fiddler 2.4.3 Beta

    How much time to you spend documenting your test cases? Most of the time it’s “too much!” Test Studio’s Storyboard export feature can get you a great start on documentation with the click of a button. Test Studio captures storyboards as you record your test, giving you a visual walkthrough of what your test is doing in a series of frames, one per test step. Each frame shows the exact state of the UI after that step is completed: Navigation, coded steps, and other non-visual steps are represented with a plain frame and a generic description of the action: Storyboards ...
