Methods, apparatus, systems and computer program products to capture discovery task information are described. More specifically, a graphical user interface is described that simplifies the task of defining what types of components (hardware and software), domains and methods are to be used during an IT infrastructure discovery operation. One benefit of using the described user interface is that the user is relieved of the burden of determining what aspects of the discovery action need be defined. Another benefit is that a user may be asked for input for only those elements necessary to the discovery—based on the user's prior input. For example, if the only type of component identified for discovery are JAVA® platforms, only those discovery methods (e.g., JMX) related to JAVA® platforms will be proffered to the user during that phase of specifying the discovery operation.
