Record from here

You can record new steps from any point in your scenario using Record from here in the scenario editor. This document explains how to use Record from here in Autify Nexus.

Start the recording session

In the scenario editor:

1. Hover over the top or bottom of an existing step

2. Click the + button

3. Click Record from here

Wait for the replay to complete

Your test will replay all of the steps leading up to the point you have chosen to record from. Replay will start in a new browser, and you can see actions as they are performed in real time. The Autify Nexus window will also display the status of the replay as it advances through your scenario. If a step fails during replay, you can choose to retry it or ignore it and start recording from the failed step. Otherwise, once all steps have been replayed successfully, the recording will start at your chosen point in the scenario.

Replaying a scenario does not generate any test results.

Stopping the replay

It is not possible to stop the replay while it’s executing unless a step fails.

However, you can cancel the replay at any time by closing the browser itself or closing the replay status window in Autify Nexus.

Handling errors during replay

If a step fails during replay, an error will be displayed in the replay status window in Autify Nexus.

You have the following options.

Fix with AI

Please refer to the section When a Failure Occurs During Replay.

Try again

If a step fails due to timing issues, such as a temporary network error or a delay in loading the target website, you can click the Try again button to rerun the replay starting from the failed step (executing the same step again). Please note that clicking Try again does not automatically update the step content.

• If the replay succeeds on retry: The replay will continue for the subsequent necessary steps.

• If the replay fails again on retry: The replay failure dialog will be displayed once more. Depending on the cause of the failure, the issue may not be resolved by using the Try again button. Please check the error message and consider options such as using the AI-assisted fix or modifying the scenario.

Cancel

By clicking the X in the top-right corner of the dialog, you can cancel the replay and start recording right from where it failed, without continuing the rest of the steps.

Record new steps for your scenario

Record steps as normal by performing actions on your web page, using the recorder toolbar, and closing the recorder when you are finished.

Once you’ve verified your changes, don’t forget to save your updated scenario.
