Description Dave Malcolm 2006-03-29 00:58:54 UTC 
It would be nice if the UI had the ability to add a verification stage; you could click a "Verify this" button in the recorder and then the next widget you click would get a verification step added to the generated code, so that the script verifies the value of that widget against a "gold" value (using the value at the time of recording as the gold value).

This generated code could look something like:
verifyContent(calculatorWin.child("Numeric Entry Field"), "42")
etc

Could also have a "Add: take a screenshot" button that would manipulate the script in a similar way.

verifyContent? what about the dogtail.tc.TC* classes?
Comment 2 Fabio Durán Verdugo 2011-02-07 06:04:41 UTC 
dogtail development has been stalled and it has been unmaintained for a few
years now.
Maintainers don't have future development plan so i am closing bugs as WONTFIX.
Please feel free to reopen the bugs in future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development.
