Abstract
An approach for creation and maintenance of video-based training documentation. Universal identifiers are created and associated with user interface elements for delimiting videos and audios. Test scripts are created based on matching the universal identifiers to task instructions. Videos are created based on test scripts where the universal identifiers are marked on the videos. Audios are created based on the universal identifiers and the task instructions, where the universal identifiers are marked on the audios. The audios and the videos are combined based on synchronizing the universal identifiers.
Claims20
A method for generating video-based training documentation, the method comprising the steps of:
- creating one or more universal identifiers, associated with one or more user interface elements, for delimiting one or more videos and one or more audios;
- creating one or more test scripts based on matching the one or more universal identifiers to one or more task instructions;
- creating one or more videos based on the one or more test scripts, wherein the one or more universal identifiers are marked on the one or more videos;
- creating one or more audios, based on the one or more universal identifiers and the one or more task instructions, wherein the one or more universal identifiers are marked on the one or more audios;
- and
- combining the one or more audios and the one or more videos, based on synchronizing the one or more universal identifiers, creating a multi-channel media.
A computer program product for generating video-based training documentation, the computer program product comprising:
- one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to create one or more universal identifiers, associated with one or more user interface elements, for delimiting one or more videos and one or more audios;
- program instructions to create one or more test scripts based on matching the one or more universal identifiers to one or more task instructions;
- program instructions to create one or more videos based on the one or more test scripts, wherein the one or more universal identifiers are marked on the one or more videos;
- program instructions to create one or more audios, based on the one or more universal identifiers and the one or more task instructions, wherein the one or more universal identifiers are marked on the one or more audios;
- and
- program instructions to combine the one or more audios and the one or more videos, based on synchronizing the one or more universal identifiers, creating a multi-channel media.
A computer system for generating video-based training documentation, the computer system comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- one or more computer readable storage media;
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to create one or more universal identifiers, associated with one or more user interface elements, for delimiting one or more videos and one or more audios;
- program instructions to create one or more test scripts based on matching the one or more universal identifiers to one or more task instructions;
- program instructions to create one or more videos based on the one or more test scripts, wherein the one or more universal identifiers are marked on the one or more videos;
- program instructions to create one or more audios, based on the one or more universal identifiers and the one or more task instructions, wherein the one or more universal identifiers are marked on the one or more audios;
- and
- program instructions to combine the one or more audios and the one or more videos, based on synchronizing the one or more universal identifiers, creating a multi-channel media.
