    Oh, I see.,.. you're using the "Run Test" operation.  Well, if you look at those tests, each one matches up to something else... most of them appear to be script units.  In which case you will need to use either the method that karthick7 posted or the one that I posted depending upon the contents of the test.  You can't specifically say "Run the third line of a keyword test" from the command line.

    Use some if else statement in keyword

     

    if  this = that

    {

    run.test3

    run.test4

    run.test5

     

    }

     

    Please Refer Attached screenshot

From Smartbear help document:

    The following command runs TestExecute, loads the specified project suite (MySuite.pjs) and tells TestExecute to run the Main script routine located in the Unit1 unit of the MyProj project.

    "C:\Work\SmartBear\TestExecute\Bin\TestExecute.exe" "C:\Work\SmartBear\TestExecute\Projects\My\My.pjs" /r /p:MyProj /u:Unit1 /rt:Main

That only works for routines that are part of a script unit.  The OP concerns Keyword tests.

 

To do that, your command line would look like this:


"C:\Work\SmartBear\TestExecute\Bin\TestExecute.exe" "C:\Work\SmartBear\TestExecute\Projects\My\My.pjs" /r /p:MyProj /test:"KeywordTests|MyTest"

Where MyTest is the name of the keyword test to be executed.

    I currently use the above script.

    This command runs my keyword script well and fine, but I wanted to know ,if there is a way to go deeper and run the individual tests in this keyword script

     

    If I have 5 tests in the keyword script and I want to run from the 3rd test.

      Is the third test another keyword script?  If so, just use the command line to run that one individually.  

       

      I'm a little confused as to what you're calling a "test" in your keyword script, however.  Could you post a screenshot of what you're working with?  That might help understand your needs better.

        For example:

        "KeywordTests|Test3|Test4|Test5"

         

         

        Use this  parameters
