ā¢ A User Interface (UI) is a series of screens, pages, and visual elements - like buttons
and input fields - that enable you to interact with an application.
ā¢ UI Automation is the process of simulating mouse and keyboard actions on windows
and controls.
ā¢ As a business user, you interact with a lot of different applications like internet browsers,
calculators, or CRMs. Let's see how you automate some of those interactions.
What is a User Interface?

All interactions with the UI can be split into Input (sending or adding something to the
application) and Output (getting something from the application)
Use Application/Browser to connect with the target application.

ā¢ The second method of automating User Interfaces is using the Web/App
Recorder feature
ā¢ Adding activities for all the actions you perform within User Interfaces can
become quite time-consuming. Let's see how you can record your actions on
the screen and translate them into StudioX activities.
Using the Web/App Recorder feature
Cool! Can I use the Recorder an all applications?
The Recorder works only on automating User Interfaces. It will not work for tasks involving
Excel, Outlook, Word, or files and folders automation, where you still need to add the activities
one by one.
