Promote parameters. Promotes the selected parameters to the next level, and replaces the selected parameter value with a link to the new parameter. If there are no test parameters with the same name, or if the Always link to existing test parameters option is not selected in the BPT Testing tab in the Options dialog box, OpenText Functional Testing creates new test parameters, and links the selected component parameter value to the new test parameter values. If test parameters already exist with the same name, and the Always link to existing test parameters option is selected, the select component parameter value is automatically linked to the existing test parameter value. This button is unavailable if the component or flow parameter is already linked to a parameter at the next level. |

Input |
The list of input parameters for the component or flow selected in the document pane. The following information is available: Input: The name of the input parameter. Value: The parameter's value. Enter text or link the parameter to another test, flow, or component parameter using the Select Link Source Dialog Box (BPT). Hover over the Value cell to display the Link and Remove Link buttons. Caution: Removing this link will remove the linked data for the selected parameter in all iterations for the selected component. The <p> linked icon indicates that the parameter value is linked to another parameter. |
Output |
The list of output parameters for the component or flow selected in the document pane. The following information is available: Output: The name of the output parameter. Value: The parameter's value. Enter text or link the parameter to another test, flow, or component parameter using the Select Link Source Dialog Box (BPT). Values are displayed for output parameters only when a component is in a flow. If you are editing a flow, hover over the Value cell to display the Link and Remove Link buttons. These buttons are not displayed if you are editing a test. Caution: Removing this link will remove the linked data for the selected parameter in all iterations for the selected component. The locked icon indicates that the parameter value is linked to another parameter. |
