List of IE Settings for Better Resilience During Coded UI Playback
This is something I have just this week come across. Not sure how I lived without it but now that I have this information it’s gold to me.
Go to the Visual Studio Team Test blog at this blog entry: UITest Framework – IE Plugin – Part 2. I suggest you read the entire post but the section I am referring to is the second section and is titled similar to this post title. What you will see is a list of settings in the form of registry entries for IE to do wonderful things. Some of these I had never thought of before. Below is just a snippet of what I am talking about.
Listing the commands to suppress unnecessary dialogs to make playback more resilient

IE Setting |
Batch Script Command |
| Turning off the Prompt that asks whether to turn on the AutoComplete | REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IntelliForms" /v "AskUser" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f |
| Turning IE Auto Complete off |
REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main" /v "Use FormSuggest" /t REG_SZ /d "no" /f |
There are are about 11 settings.
