Information on the Editor

Tested Applications List

The left part of the editor contains the list of tested applications defined in your project. Each tested application in the list has its unique name that lets distinguish two entries that refer to the same executable but have different properties (different path, parameters and so on). Each application in the list also displays the full name of the corresponding executable and the application’s icon (if the item refers to a non-existing executable file, it has the icon).

Launch Parameters

The right part of the editor displays launch parameters of an application selected in the tested applications list. Launch parameters are divided into two groups: Basic Parameters and Run-Mode Parameters. The basic parameters are the same for all applications. The run-mode parameters depend on the application type and run mode.

Properties

The footer area of the editor displays some properties of the tested application selected in the list:

  • Command line - The command-line that will be used to launch the application.

  • Script line - The script code which you can use to launch the application from your scripts. To launch the application from keyword tests, use the Run TestedApp operation.
