What gets recorded

​

Locator strategies

Each recorded step captures multiple ways to find the element, in priority order:

1. QA ID — data-qa-id attribute (most reliable)
2. Role + Name — semantic ARIA role (e.g., button “Submit”)
3. Test ID — data-testid attribute
4. Label — associated form label
5. Placeholder — input placeholder text
6. CSS Selector — class/ID based
7. XPath — full path (last resort)

During replay, TestBrick tries each strategy until one finds the element. This makes tests resilient to minor UI changes.

Click Stop Recording or close the extension popup. Your recorded steps appear in the test file.
