I want to know that is TestComplete's recording feature can be used to create tests effectively, In which multiple If then, loops conditions are used. Which is more flexible to use recording or drag and drop approach while creating keyword tests.
If you look at the video shown in Preparing Data for Data-Driven Testing, you can see how easy it is, setting up DDT, with a few simple steps. You define your test once, and pass in your data 50 times. Whereas, using keyword actions ("drag and drop") to define 50 tests is time consuming.
Regardless whether you are scripting or using keyword test, the same principle applies. If you want to reduce or increase your data, it can be easily done with DDT. Whereas, keyword actions, you'll need to remove or add keyword actions, which is time consuming.
See Data-Driven Testing, there's plenty of examples.
