Parameterise Tested app

I was wondering if anyone could help, I need to set a parameter on my tested apps (firefox,iexplore,chrome) as well as on my long list of tests so that developers can select a browser and then a test from the parameters in the items menu.  Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

    Hi,



    You can create UI for your test with user forms. When your test starts, display a form which will allow selecting the needed browser. You can get the list of available applications (added to TestedApps) using the TestedApps Object - iterate through the list of tested application using its Count and Item properties and get their names using ItemName.



    As for the list of tests, you can get it in a similar way. If by tests you mean KDT items, you can get them via the KeywordTests object. For example:



    var testList = new Array();

    var kdtProps = aqObject.GetProperties(KeywordTests);

    while(kdtProps.HasNext())

    testList.push(kdtProps.Next().Name);



    testList = testList.join("\r\n");

    Log.Message("Available KD tests", testList);





    If you mean functions in a unit, see this thread. Replace 'BuiltIn.EnumMethods' with 'aqObject.GetMethods' in the getMethodList function posted there.
