Baseline Overview

Often minor modifications are made to an application, which result in changes to data or to screen layouts. Rather than handling the Differences in PROIV Assure, or making a new Recording, you may want to accept the application changes in one go. A quick and efficient way of dealing with this is to use the Baseline functionality. Baselining replaces all Recordings in the Test or the Suite, with Recordings of the Live Session in the last Test Run. Consequently, from that point forward, the baselined Recording set is used to drive and make comparisons against the Live Session.

If you have performed any maintenance against a Test or Suite since it was last run, you cannot run the Baseline functionality. To handle this situation, simply perform another Test Run and then run the Baseline option again.

Baselining, like the Import and Export functionality, is a single-user operation, and can only be run if no other user is using the PROIV Assure Console. This is enforced by PROIV Assure.
