QuickTest Window Before you begin creating tests, you should familiarize yourself with the main QuickTest window. The image below shows a QuickTest window as it would appear after you record a test, with all toolbars and panes (except the Debug Viewer pane) displayed:  It contains the following key elements: •Title bar—Displays the name of the currently open test. •Menu bar—Displays menus of QuickTest commands.  Note: The Debug toolbar is not displayed when you open QuickTest for the first time. You can display the Debug toolbar by choosing View > Toolbars >Debug. Note that this tutorial does not describe how to debug a test. Action toolbar—Contains buttons and a list of actions, enabling you to view the details of an individual action or the entire test flow.  Note: The Action toolbar is not displayed when you open QuickTest for thefirst time. You can display the Action toolbar by choosing View > Toolbars >Action. If you insert a reusable or external action in a test, the Action toolbar is displayed automatically. •Test pane—Contains the Tree View and Expert View tabs. •Test Details pane—Contains the Active Screen. •Data Table—Assists you in parameterizing your test. The Data Table contains the Global tab and a tab for each action. •Debug Viewer pane—Assists you in debugging your test. The Debug Viewer pane contains the Watch Expressions, Variables, and Command tabs. (The Debug Viewer pane is not displayed when you open QuickTest for the first time. You can display the Debug toolbar by choosing View > Debug Viewer.) •Status bar—Displays the status of the test. The buttons used in the Test and Standard toolbars are described in detail in subsequent lessons.
