Calling script functions from KeywordTest
Hey Guys,
Trying to do something that I think should be possible but perhaps not - still a bit new to TestComplete.
I've created a script function called Random_Invoice_Number() that connects to my database, uses a random PK to pull a value out of the database, and returns that value, see below.
My question is this - can I call this function in a keyword test in order to retrieve the return value and use it within my keyword test? What type of reference would I use, I've tried a few different things and I keep getting an object expected failure. I have been able to use this function in other scripts by using a unit reference like this: //USEUNIT Database_Calls however, I just cannot figure out how to get my keyword test to call the Random_Invoice_Number() function and use its return value. Sorry if this is a simple solution, been digging through help files to no avail. Thanks!
Script:
function Random_Invoice_Number()
{
var ran_unrounded=Math.random()*2359;
var ran_number=Math.floor(ran_unrounded);
var invoice_number
var Qry
Qry = ADO["CreateADOQuery"]();
Qry["ConnectionString"]="Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=VP92027;Data Source=calypso\\sqlserver2005se;User ID=USER_ID;Password=PASS;";
Qry["SQL"]="SELECT invoice_number FROM In_StageA where invoice_id = " + ran_number;
Qry["Open"]();
Qry["First"]();
invoice_number=aqConvert["VarToStr"](Qry["FieldByName"]("invoice_number")["Value"]);
return invoice_number;
}
