Problem conclusion

  • When you recorded a Web UI test or added steps to an existing
    test by using the Running browser instance option in Google
    Chrome or Microsoft Edge, Rational Functional Tester did not
    generate the test steps after you stopped recording. This
    problem is fixed.
    
    The fix for this APAR is included in 10.5.4 release.
