grouping tests to run

I have written scripts across 3 "units" and i need to run them.  I know how to add test items and then run them but my dilemma comes that i want to only run some tests at a time and other sets ...

    Hi Mathew,


     


    Do you want to run a group of test items? You can use an approach listed here.

That was close and got me thinking, i solved it using that info. I made another unit and put the routines i wanted in order i.e.




//USEUNIT SmokeTestSource


function RunSmokeTestDev()


{


  bringToFront()


  testSizing()


  ResizeWindow()


  createSceanrio()


  setViewpoint()


  BasicViewpoint()


  Palette()


  BasicCulture()


  BasicBehavior()


  CultureAttach()


  BehaviorAttach()


  exitCancel()


  exitDontSave()


}



I am then making another but it will be 

function SmokeTestBuild()

function SmokeTestQA()



etc



then from TestExecute i will call



TestExecute.exe <mypjs> <unit> <routine> 

that will be decided by the goal at that time. 



I did a lot of reading past few days and realized i should not have all my main code in my test file jus tthe routines i want bundled to keep it clean. This is my first job that has code beyong general scripting so i have a lot to learn. thank you for link it opened my eyes :)
