Recording

Oracle User Productivity Kit

v11.1 provides new feature

enhancements focused on

enabling virtually anyone in the

enterprise to participate in the

UPK content development

lifecycle. Whether capturing

institutional knowledge,

documenting the current state

or capturing the steps to

recreate an issue in an

enterprise system, Record It!

and the streamlined topic editor

simplifies content creation and

enables any user to quickly

create and edit content in minutes without having to learn UPK. Subject matter experts, testers and business

process owners can review topics, add author notes, and assign content for review making content contribution and

knowledge sharing more efficient across the enterprise..

Testing

Ease the burden of user

acceptance testing by using

UPK to create and deploy test

plans and in-application tester

support. With the addition of

the new Comments Pane in the

Topic editor, Authors can now

add expected results to populate

Test Case, Test Document and

Test It! outputs with the

expected behavior for each step

of the test plan.

To assist in the execution of

UAT, UPK 11.1 introduces

real time performance support

specifically designed for testing. Test It! simulations guide the tester through a test plan and streamline the

capturing and compiling of test step results and tester comments. When issues are discovered, they are easily

documented through a Test Step Notes editor which is linked to each test step. The process of logging defect

reports is simplified with the ability to automatically generate the text of the steps necessary to recreate the

problem.

Available as a publishing option for the UPK

Player, Test It! can be published in any existing

combination of Player modes enabling the tester

to review test procedures in a simulated

environment prior to running the actual tests.

UPK content review can be accelerated using

Test It! as a content review tool. Content

reviewers can review topics in the Test It!

player assigning pass / fail to each topic frame

and provide feedback using the Test Step Notes

to direct UPK authors to the issue or needed

correction. At the completion of each Test It!

topic, UPK generates a test summary and

detailed report which can be used to correct the

issues.

Topic Frame Commenting

A new control pane, Frame Comments has been added in the Topic editor to better facilitate content development.

This is available in UPK Developer and the Record It! Wizard and enables authors to enhance their content

creation and knowledge transfer efforts with author notes and instructor notes.

Expected Results enables authors to enter the

expected results used to evaluate the success

or failure of a test step directly in the UPK

development environment simplifying test

script creation and maintenance. Expected

Results are available in the test case, and test

document outputs as well as the new Test It!

mode.

Author Notes enable authors to store internal

notes at a topic frame level and can be added

during recording and content editing.

Similar to Topic level Instructor Notes, Frame

level Instructor Notes provide a method to

communicate content guidance in curriculum

development projects where content will be

handed off for delivery. Instructor notes can

be added to the Instructor Manual or other

document outputs via a new document

publishing style bookmark.
