Selecting Tests to Run (General)

Selecting Tests to Run in CrossBrowserTesting Environments

Working With the Dialog

You use the dialog to select an entity (a test, a tag, or a tag expression) that:

• A project’s test item will run.

• A Run Test operation of a keyword test will run.

To call the dialog, you do one of the following:

• Click the ellipsis button in the Execution entity column on the project’s Test Items page.

• Click the ellipsis button in the Operation cell of the Run Test operation in a keyword test.

The dialog shows all the entities available in the given context.

Choose the needed entity from the Available Tests list. It can be either a test (for example, a keyword test, a script routine, a low-level procedure) or a tag.

Select [Tag Expression] to run tests that match a tag expression.

Select [None] (if available) to run nothing.

You use the dialog to select:

• A test that the Run Keyword Test or Run Script Routine operation of a keyword test will run.

• A test that a new distributed test will run.

• A script routine that a method of a class or object created with the Object-Driven Testing project item will run.

• A script routine that will be an event handler for a user form.

To call the dialog, you do one of the following:

• Click the ellipsis button in the Operation cell of the Run Keyword Test or Run Script Routine operation in the Keyword Test editor.

• Click the ellipsis button on the first page of the Network Suite wizard.

• Click the down arrow button next to the event name in the Properties panel of the User Forms Editor.

• Click No in the The project cannot be run because there are no test items in it message upon running a project with no test items.

The dialog shows all tests available in the given context, as a single list or by categories. Choose the needed test from the Available Tests list. Select [None] (if available) to run nothing.

You use the dialog to select tests to run in CrossBrowserTesting environments.

You cannot add tests that take parameters to the environments directly. Such tests will be disabled in the dialog. Create test items that will run appropriate tests and assign them to the environments via the Select Project Test Items dialog.
