The Network Suite functionality is deprecated. We don’t recommend using it for distributed testing. Consider using a CI/CD system for managing distributed tests. See Migrating Distributed Tests to CI/CD Systems for details. In case you need to run web tests on multiple environments in parallel, you can also try using your project’s Execution Plan. |
Description
The BasePath property specifies the base path on the given host (the Base path property of the host). This path can be used to specify relative paths to desired projects that are to be run by job tasks on this host (see Task.ProjectPath).
Declaration
HostObj.BasePath
| Read-Write Property | String |
| HostObj | An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to a Host object | |||
Applies To
The property is applied to the following object:
Property Value
A string that represents the host’s base path.
Example
The following example adds a remote computer to a network suite (distributed test), copies a test project from the current computer to the remote computer and starts the network suite.
JavaScript, JScript
function CopyProjectToSlave()
{
// Create a new host
var Host = NetworkSuite.Hosts.AddNew();
// Specify the connection properties of the host
Host.Name = "NewHost";
Host.Address = "TEST-W764";
// ...
// Specify the base path and source path host properties
Host.ProjectSourcePath = "C:\\Work\\MyProjects\\";
Host.BasePath = "C:\\SlaveProjects\\";
// Copy the project from the master computer to a slave computer
Host.CopyProjectToSlave();
// ...
// Run the network suite
NetworkSuite.Run(true);
}
Python
def CopyProjectToSlave():
# Create a new host
Host = NetworkSuite.Hosts.AddNew()
# Specify the connection properties of the host
Host.Name = "NewHost"
Host.Address = "TEST-W764"
Host.UserName = "tester"
Host.Password = "123"
# ...
# Specify the base path and source path host properties
Host.ProjectSourcePath = "C:\\Work\\MyProjects\\"
Host.BasePath = "C:\\SlaveProjects\\"
# Copy the project from the master computer to a slave computer
Host.CopyProjectToSlave()
# ...
# Run the network suite
NetworkSuite.Run(True)VBScript
Sub CopyProjectToSlave

' ...
' Specify the base path and source path host properties
Host.ProjectSourcePath = "C:\Work\MyProjects\"
Host.BasePath = "C:\SlaveProjects\"
' Copy the project from the master computer to a slave computer
Host.CopyProjectToSlave
' ...
' Run the network suite
NetworkSuite.Run True
End Sub
DelphiScript

Host.BasePath := 'C:\SlaveProjects\';
// Copy the project from the master computer to a slave computer
Host.CopyProjectToSlave;
// ...
// Run the network suite
NetworkSuite.Run(true);
end;
C++Script, C#Script

// Create a new host
var Host = NetworkSuite["Hosts"]["AddNew"]();
// Specify the connection properties of the host
Host["Name"] = "NewHost";
