This kind of test is ideal for
- Reproducible UI tests (e.g. no regression)
- Manual tests
- Tentatives
An example
Simply push "Play" and you will act manually as "stimulator" for the application you are verifying
- If you have recorded all the calls made by a UI you could redo all the actions you recorded
- If you are working with a db and http calls everything recorded will be returned
For tentatives just change the headers/contents/query params to find how your application reacts
