Context上下文

As described earlier, context refers to the state of the application during test playback. Because an automated test is executing at the same time the application is, it is critical that they remain synchronized. Synchronization takes two forms: one, assuring that the application is in fact located at the point where the test expects to be, and two, assuring the test does not run ahead of the application while it is waiting or processing. We will cover the second type in the next section, Synchronization.

如前面所述，上下文是指在测试回放过程中应用的状态。因为一个自动化测试是在同一时间执行的应用程序，它是关键的，他们保持同步。同步采用了2种形式：一种是，确保应用程序实际上位于测试期望的点，2，确保测试在等待或处理的应用程序的应用程序中没有运行。我们将在下一节中覆盖第二类型，同步。

上下文控制结果

Because tests are performing inputs and verifying outputs, it is imperative that the inputs be applied at the proper location in the application, and that the outputs appear where expected. Otherwise, the test will report an incorrect result. Also, when multiple tests run one after the other, the result from one test can affect the next. If one test begins at the main menu and ends at a sub-menu, the following test must either expect to begin at the sub-menu or risk failure. Similarly, if a test which expects to complete at the main menu instead fails and aborts within a window, the next test will most likely begin out of context.

因为测试执行输入和校验输出，该输入在应用程序的正确位置被应用，并且使输出出现在预期的位置是必要的。否则，测试将会报告一个不正确的结果。此外，当多个测试运行一个接一个，从一个测试结果可以影响下一步。如果一个测试在主菜单中开始和结束于一个子菜单，下面的测试必须要么希望开始的子菜单或风险的失败。同样，如果该公司预计在主菜单中完成的测试相反失败，中止在一个窗口内，接下来的测试最可能会开始脱离上下文。
