e-TEST suite installation directory (C:\Empirix\eTEST is the default).
The installation also includes a readme.doc file that contains release notes
and the latest updates to the product documentation. The readme.doc file
opens in Microsoft Wordpad when you select the Release Notes option
on the e-TEST suite Start menu. Also included is an e-Monitor v5.0 to
v5.1 conversion documentation (Wm50-51Conv.pdf) file that explains how
to migrate existing 5.0 Shell Scripts to 5.1 jobs and schedules.
The full e-TEST suite documentation set is provided on the product CDROM in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). You can use the

Introduction
e-Tester can record and play back applications designed for wireless
devices using the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP). e-Tester
monitors HTTP socket activity to record the XML-based Wireless
Markup Language (WML) used to create the cards and decks of a
wireless application.
e-Tester records the WML cards and decks as nodes in the Visual Script.
Once a Visual Script is recorded for a WML wireless application, the
Visual Script can be played back against the application in e-Tester,
e-Load, and e-Monitor.
Recording WML wireless applications in e-Tester differs somewhat from
recording HTML applications. e-Tester provides an option for opening a
WAP application browser before recording the application. After you start
recording, you navigate the WML wireless application using the WAP
application browser. e-Tester records actions in the WAP application
browser to a Visual Script in the e-Tester window.
This document explains how to set up the WAP application browser and
use e-Tester to record and play back Visual Scripts against WML wireless
applications.
Introduction
The following chapters of this guide explain the procedures for installing
the browser emulator, specifying the browser emulator in e-Tester, and
how to recording WAP applications with the specific browsers.
The Openwave 4.1 browser emulator is an updated version of the
Phone.com 4.0 browser emulator. The procedure for recording WAP
applications with either the Phone.com or Openwave emulator is the same
and is explained in Chapter 2.
The Nokia 2.1 browser emulator is and updated version of the Nokia 2.0
browser emulator. Nokia 2.1 requires version 1.3 of the Java Runtime
Environment. Nokia 2.0 requires version 1.2 of the Java Runtime
Environment. The procedure for recording WAP applications is the same
and is explained in Chapter 3.
