Test the document

As you author a document, you should save and test it frequently to ensure the Flash content plays as expected. When you test the SWF file, click the video control buttons to see if the video stops, plays, and rewinds as expected.

1. Save the document (File > Save) and select Control > Test Movie.

   The Flash content plays in a SWF file window. While FLA is the extension for documents in the authoring environment, SWF is the extension for tested, exported, and published Flash content.

2. When you finish viewing the SWF content, close the SWF file window to return to the authoring environment.
