this.item - javascript location

I have a Keyword test the performs a simple log message.

The script takes in a parameter.

 

 

This script executes as expected

 

"the input value is = " + KeywordTests.p1.Parameters.tp1

I have to write KeywordTests.p1.Parameters. to get to a local parameter, is there a better way to do this

 

I am looking for either of these options

  • this.test.Parameters.tp1
  • Parameters.tp1

 

The idea is that I can write this test and then copy it to anywhere else and it will still run and reference the NEW parameter

You can use aqTestCase to get the name of the current test case

Thanks,

 

This method is a little longer than I would like but will work.

 

I was hoping  for a shorter method

All you need to use to get your vaiue is

 

aqTestCase.CurrentTestCase.Name

 

The other things on that page are examples of how it could be used.
