Capture and Replay

What is Capture and Replay?

Capture and replay is the technique of recording a real session—every click, entry, and navigation—and then playing it back automatically to reproduce the same flow as an automated test. It lowers the barrier to test creation because you demonstrate the scenario instead of coding it. The historical downside was brittleness: naive recorders captured fragile selectors that broke on the smallest UI change. QI addresses this by generating resilient locators and adding a self-healing layer, so captured flows keep replaying reliably as the interface evolves.
