Visual Studio offers a Coded UI Test builder to record interactions with the application so that the tester can generate UI test cases automatically, and rerun the tests later on the projects to ensure everything is working as expected.

Coded UI Test refers to the black box testing that is performed by the application testers after the application development is finished. These tests include the testing functionalities of the controls to ensure that the whole application including the user interface is working correctly. Coded UI Tests are very useful when there are some validations or other logic in the user interface needed to be tested.

In this recipe, we are going to create a small application and try to test its functionalities using Coded UI Tests.
