To start with Web UI automation, the user needs to set the configurations of the web application first. To set the configurations, do the following:

1. Double-click on the Web UI node and then click on the Configurations tab.

2. To create a new Web Application, click on the New Web Application radio button. Add the following details:

   • App: Type the Web URL to be automated. Alternatively, the URL can be selected from the App dropdown. The URLs that are currently open in the browser are listed here.
   • App Name: Type the desired name of the web application. This value is specific to the web application.
   • Browser: The browser can be selected based on the following options:
     • If the URL is selected from the existing list, then the corresponding browser will get selected and displayed by default.
     • The desired browser can be selected from the Browser dropdown menu when you typed in the URL details. Choose any one of the following options from this drop-down based on the requirement:
       • Internet Explorer
       • Chrome
       • Chrome Depricated - The tasks that have been migrated from the previous versions of Jiffy can use this option to execute the tasks.
         

         If the web application is open in two browsers (for example, Chrome and Internet Explorer), then an option will be given to select the desired browser.

         
         
   • Cluster: Select the required cluster from this drop-down. This is applicable only when the task is being executed using an Execution Bot

     Leave cluster name blank when the task is being executed using a Developer Bot.

   • Authenticate: Few web applications require authentication for launching a web page. In that case provide username and password.

3. Alternatively, the user can select any existing web application in the Web Application drop-down if it matches the criteria of the user.

4. Click on the CREATE & RECORD button to create the web application and begin recording the web application.

   After the App and the Configuration are created, if the App name is SearchFlight, the name of the Configuration will be concatenated with the App name and type of UI automation. Eg: SearchFlight_Web

5. Alternatively, select any existing configuration in the Configuration drop-down if it matches the criteria of the user.

6. The user can also edit, copy or delete the existing configuration by clicking on the Edit, Copy and Delete icons displayed against each configuration, respectively.

7. The created confirguration will be listed in the Configuration tab.
