    Hi PillipB:

     

       Please past following code to you any test case then run it, you should be able to see three custom properties will be generated at three levels which are TestCase, TestSuite and Project :

     

    testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue( "YourTestCasePropertyName", "ValueForTestCase" )
    testRunner.testCase.testSuite.setPropertyValue( "YourTestSuitePropertyName", "ValueForTestSuite" )
    testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.setPropertyValue( "YourProjectPropertyName", "ValueForProject" )

     

    Good luck,

Hi Kingsmartbear,

 

the link does not say where the script is used because my script is at "Setup Script" so this "testRunner" is not available at "Setup Script" so is always exception thrown when using it.  Thanks.

      Thanks Kingsmartbear.

       

      Your code works after puting under the TestCase level in Setup Script.  For TestSuite and Project level code has exception with testRunner.  For now I use Global Property.

        Hi, FYI

        I had the same problem for test suites, and I just use testSuite in place of testCase:

        customProps = testSuite.getPropertyNames();

        and it works fine.
