Test Cases page

In the Test Cases page of the test suite editor, you can perform numerous activities to prepare your test suite and test cases for testing, such as selecting an operation invocation for which you want to specify values in the test data table.

The Test Cases page is shown in the following figure:

As shown in the figure, there are four major areas of the Test Cases page. These areas are described in the following sections:

• 1 Test Cases area
• 2 Control area
• 3 General Information
• 4 Detailed Properties

Test Cases area

The Test Cases area displays the test cases and the associated invocation steps and Wait On steps for the operations that are defined in the test suite.

Control area

The control area provides the following icons to help you manage test cases and operation invocations:

• Add Test Case Opens the New Test Case window box, which enables you to add a new test case. Beside the Add Test Case icon, you can select the following menu items by clicking the down arrow icon

  :

  • Add Invocation Adds an operation invocation for the test case selected in the Test Cases area.

  • Add Wait On Adds a Wait On step. (You can create either synchronous or asynchronous invocations. An asynchronous invocation is specified by checking the Asynchronous Mode check box on the Test Cases page. If the invocation is asynchronous and it is expecting a return value, a Wait On step can be used to wait for the invocation results.)

• Remove Removes selected test cases or operation invocations from the Test Cases area.
• Move Up Moves selected test cases or operation invocations up in the Test Cases area.
• Move Down Moves selected test cases or operation invocations down in the Test Cases area.
• Show Descriptions Toggles selected test cases or operation invocations between the default description and the user-defined description.

General Information

The General Information area shows name and description for a selected test case or the description for a selected operation invocation.

Detailed Properties

The Detailed Properties area displays the specific properties of any test case or operation invocation that is selected in the Events area.

And the Detailed Properties area for a Wait On step is shown in the following figure:
