1. Uploading Custom Action Files Using .jar Files into algoQA
This feature allows you to upload custom action files into the Custom Setting Editor screen and Customize Framework functionality using .jar files. These files are stored in the Utility folder generated within the Test Cases folder. When you modify the generated scripts and upload these modified scripts (custom files), the custom files are reflected in the profiler interface.
1.2. JAR File Overview
A JAR (Java Archive) file is a single file that stores compressed versions of .class files (Java program files), along with other types of files like audio files, image files, or entire directories. You can think of a .jar file as similar to a zipped file (.zip), which is created using WinZip software.
