What are the synchronization points?

Synchronization points enable you to solve anticipated timing problems between the test and your application. For example, if you create a test that opens a database application, you can add a synchronization point that causes the test to wait until the database records are loaded on the screen.
b. For Analog testing, you can also use a synchronization point to ensure that WinRunner repositions a window at a specific location. When you run a test, the mouse cursor travels along exact coordinates. Repositioning the window enables the mouse pointer to make contact with the correct elements in the window.

Synchronization Point:  It stops the application to run as and when till the load of particular event is get completed. Take for an example, when the application load time takes 10 seconds and the actual time is set for only 5 seconds in WR then while running the application it continually keep checks all the functionality even when the load of particular event is not yet completed.. For this purpose set the time according to the application in the Synchronization point.
