Recording user interaction with an application

A computer-implemented method for recording user interaction with a browser-based application, the method comprising:

• detecting in a software framework executing in a browser at a local computer system that a user has initiated an interaction with a browser-based application executing in the browser;
• processing the user interaction in the software framework, including handling the user interaction locally or sending a request to a remote server if required for processing;
• creating at the software framework a data item representative of the user interaction;
• and
• recording the data item at a data store.

A computer-implemented method for recording user interaction with a browser-based application, the method comprising:

• detecting in a software framework executing in a browser at a local computer system that a user has initiated an interaction with a browser-based application executing in the browser;
• creating at the software framework one or more data items representative of the user interaction;
• and
• recording the one or more data items at a data store.

A computer-implemented method for listening to a user interaction with a browser-based application, the method comprising:

• detecting in a software framework executing at a first computer system that a user has initiated an interaction with a browser-based application executing in a browser;
• processing the user interaction at the software framework;
• creating at the software framework one or more data items representative of the user interaction;
• recording the data items at a data store accessible by the first computer system and by a second computer system on which another instance of the browser-based application is executing in a browser;
• retrieving the data items from the data store;
• processing the data items at a software framework executing in the browser at the second computer system to listen at the second computer system to the user interaction with the browser-based application at the first computer system.

A computer-implemented method for simulating user interaction with a browser-based application, the method comprising:

• receiving a plurality of data items representative of user interactions with a browser-based application;
• processing the data items using a software framework, such that the user interactions with the browser-based application represented by the data items are simulated, where processing the data items using the software framework includes:
• determining whether a user interaction represented by a data item can be handled locally or requires access to a resource at a remote computer system, and
• processing the user interaction based on a result of the determination.

• determine whether the user interaction can be processed locally or requires access to a resource accessible by the server system;
• process the user interaction based on a result of the determination, including one or both of handling the user interaction locally at the software framework and sending a request to the server system;
• the client computer configured to send transmissions to and receive transmissions from a server system;
• a server system configured to:
• process a user interaction received from the software framework executing on the client computer.
