Hi

I got a test for a Wizard and its absolutly the same test, just one box, that needs to be checked or left unchecked, and i dont wont to built another test case for that.
So is there a way to built something like an if statement with a parameter ( test case parameter) as condition, so that i can check or uncheck that box?

Hi,

There are two ways you could do this. Either build a module for the bits that stay the same and reuse it other modules containing just the click on "Next" or "Finish", or also the activation of the checkbox for when you need that, e.g.

Test Case A:
- Enter name
- Enter path

Test Case B:
- Reuses Test Case A
- Click Next

Test Case C:
- Reuses Test Case A
- Activate check box
- Click Next

This way involves more structuring, but is probably more readable and understandable in the long run.

The other way is to add a conditional activation using Event Handlers. There is a forum thread with some general information on Event Handlers here. A thread containing some more specific uses of Event Handlers is here.

The exact example you are looking at is also covered in the cheat sheet on Event Handlers.

Best regards,
Alex

Thx for the answer.

And you are right. I tried both ways. With the Event Handler you can get everything into on Test Case, but it got very complicated and unreadable and unmaintainable.
