What is event tracing used for in QA?

Event tracing in QA is used to track the sequence of user or system actions to understand how and why a particular error occurred. It helps to:

• Reproduce bugs more accurately.
• Analyze application behavior in different scenarios.
• Improve test scenarios by identifying hidden issues.

For example, when testing a web application, you can record clicks, data inputs, and page transitions to analyze later at which step the failure occurred.
