Disable a test step from a groovy script.

hello,

Can you tell met how i can disable one or more test steps from a groovy script.

I can see if a step is disabled by the script

testRunner.getTestCase().getTestStepByName( "Download Jira-Attachments" ).isDisabled();

But now i want to enabled/disable steps by groovy script.

Regards,

Raymond Wiertz

    Hi Raymond!

    sure.. try

    testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName( "Download Jira-Attachments" ).disabled = false

    to disable the step..

    Hi Raymond,

    thanks.. it's a bug that occurs when trying to enabled a teststep that is already enabled (and hasn't been disabled previously..)..

    you can work around this by first checking if it already is enabled before setting disabled to false.. ie

    def testStep = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName( "step 2" )
    if( testStep.disabled )
      testStep.disabled = false

    sorry for the inconvenience.. I can send you a patched jar if you want..

    regards!
