Playing Back the Script on a New Build
Testers and developers can work in parallel. So, while testers build test scripts and
suites, developers are typically creating new builds of the application. You recorded a
script against Build 1, but now the developers have delivered Build 2 with changes to
the UI. It is important that you run your suites on the newest build.
Testers or other members of your team may want to run test cases early in the project.
Team members can right-click any test case in your test plan and run it from the
shortcut menu.
For the purpose of this exercise, and because we are in the testing phase of Version 2
of the ClassicsCD.com development project, we will run the test script from the suite
itself.
Exercise: Run the test suite on the newest build.
