1. A method for recording and playback of actions associated with events occurring during execution of a software processing tool, the method comprising:
- processing a testing software, wherein the software comprises a set of instructions for performing one or more system requirements and generating an output;
recording an event at a first instance and an action taken in response by a user during execution of the testing software;
once the event and corresponding action taken are recorded, creating an action map of the recorded event and respective action taken in response to the event as recorded;
storing the action map; and
during playback execution of the testing software,(i) detecting occurrences of an unexpected event at a next instance in the execution of the testing software;
(ii) associating one of the respective actions from the action map with the unexpected event; and
(iii) providing to the user a response which comprises the corresponding action taken as recorded for the one respective action associated, from the action map, with the unexpected eventwherein associating one of the respective actions from the action map with the unexpected event comprises;
mapping the unexpected event occurred at the next instance with a previously recorded event in the action map; and
