Get script function name in Python

[markre94]

Hi,

I have a trouble with obtaining the name of the test function while running it as a Script Routine using Python.

How to retreived test function name via Project.TestItems.Current.ElementToBeRun.Caption or something else when the script is not running from ExecutionPlan as a test item but as Script Routine from the code.

You should just be able to assign  Project.TestItems.Current.ElementToBeRun.Caption  to a variable. What happens when you try that?

Hi @Marsha_R  that works as expected but I would like to run my script directly from the Test Complete code editor and still have the same effect. I did't manage to figure it out if this is even possible.

I have a defined python function that is added as a TestCase in the Execution Plan. What I want is to retireve the name of that function so the value that I should get with Project.TestItems.Current.ElementToBeRun.Caption both when running it from Execution Plan and when running it directy from code editor.

I understand what you're trying to do, but sometimes troubleshooting takes going back to basics to figure out what's working and what's not!

In your case, this is working as expected. ElementToBeRun only applies in the Execution Plan. What you may want to use instead is CurrentTestCase because that works in many places.
