Suggest Edits

The Auto Complete feature can help you expedite the test recording process, by using pre-recorded steps that were saved as shared groups. While recording a test, Testim will suggest a sequence of next steps based on existing shared groups. After clicking the desired suggestion, Testim will automatically perform the steps and save them in your test. You may resume the manual recording after the automated steps are performed.
