Abstract

See full text

An application workflow capture system records application usage and behavior semantically as a series of XML-based “events.” A capture tool is used to capture a target application workflow, and a replay tool is used to replay the captured data. The capture tool generates a workflow capture file that includes a set of information about a user's interaction with the application. When it is desired to analyze the application, the file is then provided to the replay tool. The replay tool consumes the workflow capture file and, based on the information therein, generates an executable. When launched by a player, the executable reads the captured workflow from the file and performs changes in the application properties and user inputs, preferably in the same order which they occur in the captured workflow. The behavior of the executable mimics that of the target application.
