I don't know, man, capture-replay seems a little too 'set it and forget it' for my liking. I think I'd go with data-driven scripting to really put this tool through its paces. Plus, it's the most fun to say out loud.

I see the benefits of both options, but I think Capture-replay scripting might be more efficient for our initial testing phase.

That's a good point, Glory. Data-driven scripting could be useful for testing various inputs.

I prefer Data-driven scripting as it allows for more flexibility in testing different scenarios.

Structured scripting? Sounds like someone's trying to make this way more complicated than it needs to be. Just give me the capture-replay and let's get this show on the road!
