Using keyboard shortcuts
Overview
To make it easier to work around the recording action, we have added keyboard shortcuts that can be used during test recording. This should make it easier to switch between different options within the BugBug recorder.
Possible uses and combinations of keyboard shortcuts
Ctrl + Alt + 1
Add assert
If "Add Assert" mode is enabled and you use the shortcut again, it will be disabled.
Ctrl + Alt + 2
Add hover
As before, using the shortcut again will disable this mode.
Ctrl + Alt + 3
Inbox
It will show you the "Open Inbox for a special test email address" view with realted options.
Ctrl + Alt + 4
Variables
It will show you the "Variables" view with realted options.
Ctrl + Alt + 5
Pause recording
This will bring up the "Pause recording" view with its associated options. While you are in this view, you can alternatively use two other shortcuts: * Ctrl + Alt + 1 to resume recording * Ctrl + Alt + 2 that will finish and close your recording session.
Ctrl + Alt + 6
Finish and close
It will end and close your recording session.
Workflow tips
Some of the shortcuts are also available in the BugBug Runner view, so you can use them there as well.
Meaning:
Ctrl + Alt + 1 to start recording additional steps
Ctrl + Alt + 2 to finish the test and close the window
