State (%STATE) Macro
The State macro is used to insert US state names into the strings generated by a data source using the Custom String data generator.
The macro is an analog of the State data generator.
Syntax
The macro has the following syntax:
%STATE(Format)
Parameters
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to use the State macro:
State: %STATE(FULL)
Generates a string containing a full state name.
%STATE(Abbreviated)
Generates abbreviated state names.
%STATE <- Invalid value
The macro requires the parameter, so ReadyAPI will not parse the custom string.
%STATE(COUNTY) <— Invalid value
The parameter is specified incorrectly, so ReadyAPI will not parse the custom string.
