Define tests for test case steps

For a test case step that concerns a button, you can set up a control event procedure with actions that are done in a specific sequence. A control event procedure has one action or a series of actions that are done on the On button clicked control event. So, the procedure is started if the button is clicked.

Develop action class for test action

Developer
You can use a test action for any test case on a:
  • Test case event procedure. If the test case event occurs, the action is done.
  • Test event procedure for a test case step that concerns a button. If the button is clicked, the action is done.
For a test action, a class is required. To develop this class, extend the DAWActionRunTestCase class, which is an extension of the DAWActionRun class.
Prerequisite: Develop the extension of the DAWActionRunTestCase class in the AOT before you start the steps.
Note: The steps are to have the developed test action class uploaded as test action to the related library.

Update application libraries

Tester

 		In your application design, you can only use the libraries and library elements that are linked to the application. An application library defines which library elements can be used in the application design. Library elements are: actions, functions, and data sets.
You link libraries to an application in several ways:
  • Add manually
    You manually add a library to an application to make it available for use in the application.
  • Link automatically
    If you have imported an application, the used libraries are not linked automatically. To make the used libraries available for the application, you must link these. Only the libraries are linked of which at least one action, function, or data set is used in the application.
    Note: If you link libraries, and an already linked library is not used in the application, it is removed from the linked libraries.
If a linked library is updated, for example a new action class is created, you must refresh the libraries to have the updates available for the application. To do so refer to: Manage libraries.

Develop function class for test function

Developer

 		You can use a test function for a condition on a test case event procedure action. The test function fills the related value of the condition.
For a test function, a class is required. To develop this class, extend the DAWFunctionRunTestCase class.
Prerequisite: Develop the extension of the DAWFunctionRunTestCase class in the AOT before you start the steps.
Note: The steps are to have the developed test function class uploaded as test function to the related library.

    Note: If you link libraries, and an already linked library is not used in the application, it is removed from the linked libraries.
If a linked library is updated, for example a new action class is created, you must refresh the libraries to have the updates available for the application. To do so refer to: Manage libraries.
