Recording the verification stage

for RadioList, GetItemCount, which returns the number of radio buttons. You
can use the method to provide the actual value, then specify the expected
value in the script, as follows:

When doing the verification, position the mouse pointer over the RadioList
and press Ctrl+Alt. Select the Method tab in the Verify Window dialog, and
select the GetItemCount method. Click OK to close the Verify Window
dialog, and complete your testcase. Paste it into a script. You now have the
following script:

testcase VerifyFuncTest ()

TextEditor.Search.Replace.Pick ()

Replace.Direction.GetItemCount ()

Replace.Cancel.Click ()

Now use the Verify function to complete the verification statement. Change
the line

Replace.Direction.GetItemCount ()

Verify (Replace.Direction.GetItemCount (), 2)

That is, the call to GetItemCount (which returns the number of radio buttons)
becomes the first argument to Verify. The expected value, in this case, 2,
becomes the second argument.

Your completed script is:

testcase VerifyFuncTest ()

TextEditor.Search.Replace.Pick ()

Verify (Replace.Direction.GetItemCount (), 2)

Replace.Cancel.Click ()

text insertion cursor is positioned on line 1, column 1.
