Simple question - how can I make selenium IDE record all mousemove events? There doesn't seem to be an option to do that. Do I need another plugin/extension for that?
Thanks

Do you mean the exact path the mouse moves along in between clicks and hovers? – jcfollower Mar 30 '15 at 13:46

I've never heard of that being done ... just the hovers and clicks (and I'm not too sure about the hovers). – jcfollower Mar 30 '15 at 14:35

Selenium IDE won't auto-record this for you. But it looks like you might be able to use some javascript magic to record this: Javascript - Track mouse position
I'd question why you want this data. If it's to record coordinates to then write tests there are better ways to record where to click, etc by using locators.

Recording is easy, but how to replay? As to what I need the data for - my site makes decisions based on mouse movements (not hover over's), so I need it to test the logic. – WeaselFox Mar 31 '15 at 06:22

site uses mouse movements how so? Do you just need to trigger certain events? mouseMoveAt might help here? – DMart Mar 31 '15 at 21:22
