Foglight Transaction Recorder 5.6.13 - Recorder Getting Started Guide

FTR-Clipboard example

This script builds upon the FTR-Random Input example in the previous procedure. The first input is selected randomly from a list. A “Value Script”, viewed in Instruction Properties, saves the random number generated to the clipboard.

The clipboard is then read by the “Value Script” in the second Set Value instruction. The second Value Script returns a value that is related to the first.

WScript Simple Timers example

WScript Database example

This script builds upon the WScript Simple Timers example by performing queries against a database. Within the called script are two timers which report the elapsed time of the two queries. The provided dbcmd.js script uses the Northwind database, but can be modified, then used with the required database by editing the dbcmd.js file in the Documents and Settings > My Documents > My Foglight Scripts > Samples directory.
