Customizing the Manual Tester Window

You can customize the five components of the Manual Tester window in several different ways. You can resize views, close and re-open views, make the Properties view in the execution viewer float, and rearrange the layout of the components.

To resize any of the five Manual Tester Window components, place the mouse pointer over any edge of the view. When the mouse pointer becomes a double-headed arrow, drag the edge to the size you want.

To temporarily make any view larger, double-click the view tab. Manual Tester expands the view to fill the entire Manual Tester window. To return the view to its previous size, double-click the tab again. This feature is particularly helpful for the Text Editor and the Properties view.

To close any of the views, click the close button on the view tab, for example:

Outline view with the close button displayed in red

To redisplay any views you have closed, use the Window menu on the Manual Tester menu . For example, to redisplay the Outline view, click Windows > Show View > Outline.

The Properties view on the execution viewer is floatable -- you can move the Properties view to anywhere on your screen and make it larger. Click in the tab of the Properties view and drag it. When you release the mouse button, Manual Tester places the Properties view on your screen outside the execution view.

To rearrange the layout of the view in the Manual Tester window, drag the tab for the view to an edge or over the tab for another view.
