Methods and systems for tracking user interactions with a computer application. As a computer application is used, it keeps track of user interactions, for example, for use on an analytics server. An interaction tracking configuration may specify which events are tracked, under what conditions the events are tracked, and identify what information is recorded. This configuration may be separated from the application. For example, the configuration may be stored in a configuration file at a location specified within and used by an application. The configuration may then be changed without changing a deployed application. Certain embodiments provide a tracking configuration tool to facilitate the creation of such a configuration. The tool may use a running application to identify events for tracking. Identifying events in this way can simplify the task of configuring interaction tracking by reducing the need for understanding or accessing of the actual code of the application.

An application development tool can support sampling of data from one or more providers of data that will be queried by the application under development at runtime. The sampling results can be used to provide hints or suggestions at development time so that a developer defining code segments that make reference to data resulting from such queries can produce code segments having the proper context to reference the data of interest. The sampling results can comprise a plurality of parameters and the application development tool can provide a user interface whereby a user can indicate custom type declarations for the returned parameters and/or identify a subset of the parameters returned by a query as being of interest. The custom type declarations and/or identified subset can be used to facilitate more meaningful hinting or suggestion by the application development tool.
