TestGen4Web Plug-in Not Reloading Tests For External Editors

[fcohen]

This enhancement has the TestGen4Web Firefox plug-in check for external updates to a test and reloads the test file.

Hello All,
When we edit a script using text pad or Notepad and reload it in Mozilla browser to play but sometimes the PLAY button doesn't appear as enable. We noticied that modified script in Edit mode using PTT tool bar in Mozilla displays message as "No Steps" while all steps displays when we view the script using testpad.
It's a temporary issue. After sometime, it works fine.
Could anyone suggest why we are getting this problem and also how can we avoid it.
I'll appreciate your help.
 Thanks & Regards,
Saurabh Gupta

I tested this in TestGen4Web 1.0 and it appears that the plug-in does not reload an externally changed file. I will check with Vinay to see if this will be addressed. -Frank
