[JASS] Questions about some Reforged natives

[Barade]

Hi,
I am just wondering what some of the new natives do:

native BlzHideCinematicPanels                     takes boolean enable returns nothing

native AutomationSetTestType                    takes string testType returns nothing
native AutomationTestStart                      takes string testName returns nothing
native AutomationTestEnd                        takes nothing returns nothing
native AutomationTestingFinished                takes nothing returns nothing

native RequestExtraIntegerData                     takes integer dataType, player whichPlayer, string param1, string param2, boolean param3, integer param4, integer param5, integer param6 returns integer
native RequestExtraBooleanData                     takes integer dataType, player whichPlayer, string param1, string param2, boolean param3, integer param4, integer param5, integer param6 returns boolean
native RequestExtraStringData                      takes integer dataType, player whichPlayer, string param1, string param2, boolean param3, integer param4, integer param5, integer param6 returns string
native RequestExtraRealData                        takes integer dataType, player whichPlayer, string param1, string param2, boolean param3, integer param4, integer param5, integer param6 returns real

native BlzStartRecording                           takes integer fps returns nothing
native BlzEndRecording                             takes nothing returns nothing

The first one hides the two cinematic bars which are added in cinematic mode I guess.
What are automation tests?
What is requesting extra data?

Can I really record the game into video files or something?

Is there some Wiki which explains all the natives in detail? I know for some natives there are explanations in corresponding trigger actions from Blizzard.

Haven't checked if it's been updated recently but there's some documentation here: 1.31 Documentation
And here: lep/jassdoc

Not sure about the automation testing but it's probably for internal testing so I wouldn't worry about it.
