UI Elements |
Description |
---|---|
Name |
A name for the parameter. A default name for the parameter is provided. |
Type |
A drop down list of simple data types, such as String or Integer. For parameters linked to ALM AUT parameters, the type will always be String. |
Default Value |
A default value for the parameter, used during the run session if no other value is provided for the parameter. For ALM AUT parameters, you can set this value by selecting Copy default value (override) in the Select AUT Parameter Dialog Box. |
ALM AUT Parameter |
The path to an ALM AUT Parameter from the Lab Resources > AUT Environment module in ALM Lab Management. You cannot edit the text in this box. Use the Select ALM application parameters to enter an AUT parameter. Note: Available only if OpenText Functional Testing is connected to an ALM server that has the Lab Management module, and a test stored on that server is selected in the solution explorer. |
Select ALM application parameters. Opens the Select AUT Parameter dialog box for selecting a parameter from an AUT environment defined in the Lab Resources > AUT Environment module. For details, see Select AUT Parameter Dialog Box. Note: Available only if OpenText Functional Testing is connected to an ALM server that has the Lab Management module, and a test stored on that server is selected in the solution explorer. |
|
Remove link to ALM application parameters. Removes the linking of the selected parameter from ALM. This parameter will now be an ordinary test parameter. Note: Available only if OpenText Functional Testing is connected to an ALM server that has the Lab Management module, and a test stored on that server is selected in the solution explorer. |
