The manual testing functionality is deprecated. Do not use it for creating new tests. It will be removed in a future TestComplete release. |
Description
Use the XMLFileName property to specify the name of the XML file that holds instructions of the step that corresponds to the ManualTestStep. If the step data is stored in the XML+XSL format, then after you save the step to a file and create a project item from this file, the HTML file contents will be displayed in the XML Source page of the Step instructions field in the Manual Test editor. To check the step text format, use the IsXMLContent method.
Declaration
ManualTestStepObj.XMLFileName
| Read-Write Property | String |
| ManualTestStepObj | An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to a ManualTestStep object | |||
Applies To
The property is applied to the following object:
Property Value
String specifying the name of the XML file that holds the step instructions.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to specify the XML file that stores test step instructions and the XSL file that will be applied to that XML file.
JavaScript, JScript
function ManualTest()
{
ManualTestBuilder.Reset();
ManualTestBuilder.Name = "NewManualTest";
// Obtains the root step of the test and specifies its properties
var RootStep = ManualTestBuilder.Root;
RootStep.Caption = "Root step of my item";
// Specifies that the test step instructions are stored in an XML file
RootStep.IsXMLContent = true;
// Specifies the XML file that contains the step instructions
// And the XSL file that will be applied to the XML file
RootStep.XMLFileName = "C:\\Work Folder\\RootStep.xml";
RootStep.XSLFileName = "C:\\Work Folder\\XSLFile.xsl";
// Adds new substeps to the root steps and specifies their properties
...
// Saves the created test to a file
ManualTestBuilder.Save("C:\\Work Folder\\ManualTest\\", true);
}
{
ManualTestBuilder.Reset();
ManualTestBuilder.Name = "NewManualTest";
// Obtains the root step of the test and specifies its properties
