Applies to:
Main window overview

 

When clicking the Project menu item with your mouse, the project menu appears containing the following menu items (active or not depending on the context of your project):
 
 

Test
This will switch your project to test mode. In test mode you can preview your project: you will see a runtime preview of your application and can test its functionality. If an active internet connecting is open, you are able to access the web with your project and check links and functionality online.

Press the test button again or choose Project->Stop testing to switch BrowserBob back to design mode. Alternatively you can use the shortcut ALT + F4 or press the exit button of your application in order to switch back to design mode.

Important note: in testmode, no new windows can be opened at all, no matter what the specifications of your application foresee (if it's set to allow, explorer,...). Also no popup handling can be tested here. Additionally, the functionality of a custom user agent string is not active in testmode.  In order to test the above features of your application, you should finish your project by building, which is done by few clicks only.

Build
This opens the build dialog. Building means compiling your project to a standalone application, that can be run on every Windows 9x, NT, 2000, XP system without having BrowserBob installed.

Finish your application - the build function

Options
Opens the
Project options, where you can set a background color, selection color, helper lines color. Here you may add a description of your project, which will be added with your export file and will be shown with the template on the New project dialog.
