You guessed correctly. I want to do a custom build. I work for an OEM and am trying to implement an idea - to log all inputs (keystrokes, text field input, browser tests including Javascript, plugging/ unplugging SD card etc.) by the testers to have a set of trails that would be useful. So I am trying to figure out the minimal set of points in the framework code at which I can log "this text was input", "this key was pressed". Does such a tool to log trails already exist? Anil
