Interface ITestDataElement


public interface ITestDataElement

Encapsulates a generic element used in an ITestDataList. You should not use this interface directly outside the context of a list. You can access similar functionality by directly using the ITestData interface and specifying a property with an appropriate masking setting.


Method Summary
 java.lang.Object getElement()
          Returns an element of a list or set-test data container.
 boolean getMasked()
          Returns true if the associated element should be masked from comparison operations of the containing-list data.
 void setElement(java.lang.Object element)
          Sets an element of a list or set-test data container.
 void setMasked(boolean masked)
          Specifies whether the associated element should be masked from comparison operations of the containing-list data.
 

Method Detail

getElement

java.lang.Object getElement()
Returns an element of a list or set-test data container. The resulting object is of a known type, either a primitive type or a type with a value-class association.

Since:
RFT1.0

setElement

void setElement(java.lang.Object element)
Sets an element of a list or set-test data container. The supplied object must be of a known type, either a primitive type or one that has a value class association.

Since:
RFT1.0

getMasked

boolean getMasked()
Returns true if the associated element should be masked from comparison operations of the containing-list data.

Since:
RFT1.0

setMasked

void setMasked(boolean masked)
Specifies whether the associated element should be masked from comparison operations of the containing-list data.

Parameters:
masked - true if this element should be ignored by comparison operations against the containing list
Since:
RFT1.0
