Yes,Everybody is saying "Programing" but , for example if you take Mercury;s Flight reservation application..they showed in training..first record and then add synchronisation points,GUI checkpoints etc..

                                         If everything is programming, will GUI map store those functions?

It's a combination of both recording and programming. First record, check whether the objects are recognized by WR, else use virtual objects wiz, parameterize the script and run the script

Hi Guys

Automating a website is combination of both Programming and Recording.

Somehow we have to use both the method.

Hi,

Automation of a web site totally depends on the test case/scenario you want to execute.

if there is scope of recording then go for it but then it is also very true that programming is very essential.

and one more thing testing a web application using winrunner is always a vey cumbersome task. Since the presence of Dynamic objects in the application.

Just to add,
in order to automate an application using WR, all the actions should be first be recorded and run. If the script runs successfully, the verification and other logic should be added based on the manual testcases/requirements.

Well, my past experience says that recording can be done in real time envoirment (like webs) but its not helpful enough.
All objects are so dynamic there that recording is not good for this senerio. I love to go for coding in this senerio as by coding you may be able to define your own way for testing the web. For a beginner recording will serve well but is not reliable.

In real time environment automation frame work is used to test application like web,windows. First you have to develop common frame work application which contains function, variables  and statements. Then customzied it suitable for your application
If you understand the concept automation frame you can get clear answer for your question.
