What is a View?

What is a View

View refers to the visual representation of a UI Context. It captures the essence of the application interaction available in a web-based test application. To capture a new view in accelQ you will need to use View Analyzer plugin.

A UI Context may have one or more Views associated with it, representing slight variations in the visual presentation of a given Context. For example, consider the travel site home page. Flights and Hotel tabs become two different views for the same home page.

How does accelQ use Views 

• Views provide offline access to the application interface.
• Views capture DOM information, which is useful in building element ID criterion.
• Views allow interaction with the UI elements for Action logic development.
• Views provide rich support for self-healing at runtime, in case element description has changed.
