Intern Recorder is a Chrome Developer Tools extension developed by SitePen Labs. It is a powerful tool that helps in the creation of functional tests for web applications by automatically recording user interactions with a browser. This extension generates tests in a format compatible with the Intern testing framework.

With the updated version 2, Intern Recorder is now compatible with Intern 4 and can generate TypeScript tests. This update brings several new features to enhance the testing process. One notable addition is the custom attribute selector, which allows users to select elements based on their custom attributes. This provides more flexibility in targeting specific elements during test creation.

Another useful feature in version 2 is the ability to set suite names when creating tests. This helps in organizing and categorizing tests, making it easier to manage and maintain a large test suite.

Overall, Intern Recorder is an invaluable tool for developers and testers who want to create robust functional tests for web applications. Its integration with Chrome Developer Tools makes it easy to record user interactions and generate tests, saving time and effort in the testing process.
