markAction()​

markAction(actionName): void

Defined in: src/laika.ts:936

Use this function to mark a new action if recording a sequence of events.

Returns​

void

Example​

log.markAction('opening the ticket');
// click around the site
log.markAction('changing the assignee');

Defined in: src/laika.ts:921

Resets the recording in preparation of another one.

Returns​

void

startLogging()​

startLogging(matcher?): void

Defined in: src/laika.ts:897

Example logging output

Parameters​

matcher?​

Matcher

Returns​

void

startRecording()​

startRecording(startingActionName?, matcher?): void

Defined in: src/laika.ts:910

Starts the recording process. Every result will be saved until you run log.stopRecording().

Example recording output

Parameters​

startingActionName?​

string

Name what you are about to do. For example "opening a new ticket".
