LocalParameter Object

Description

An input or output local parameter.

A local parameter is similar to a variable and is defined for a specific business component. It is not accessible by other business components, and its value cannot be used by or passed to other business components.

Define local parameters in the Business Component Keyword View using the Configure Value Options dialog box for input parameters and the Output Options dialog box for output parameters.

A local parameter can be used to parameterize the value of a step in a business component or to indicate the storage location for one of the output parameters used by a business component.

Note: You can also use the LocalParameter object as a variable in tests.

For more details on local parameters, see the OpenText Functional Testing User Guide.
