Running scripts
Run scripts to perform tests. During playback, QA Wizard Pro compares the tested application against the window and control information stored in the application repository. If differences are found in the window or control properties, the script fails.
1. Open the script to run and then choose Script > Run. You can also right-click a script in the Workspace pane and choose Open and Run.
Note: If a script is set as the main script for the workspace, you can run it without opening it. Choose Script > Run Main Script. See Setting and running a main script.
The script runs.
- You may be prompted to name the playback session before playback starts. Enter a session name and click Set Name and Run or click Run Without Name to run the session without a name. If you do not want to be prompted to enter a session name, disable it in the server options. See Setting server connection options.
- If repository variables are defined for the application version, you may be prompted to enter variable values before playback starts. See Entering repository variable values during recording and playback.
- If QA Wizard Pro is integrated with Helix ALM Data Warehouse, you may be prompted to log in to the server. See Entering login information when running scripts.
- You are prompted to install and enable the required QA Wizard Pro extension the first time you run a script in Firefox. Select Allow this installation and click Continue.
Any errors that occur are displayed in the Errors pane. When the script finishes running, the run report is generated. See Viewing results reports.
If email notifications are configured, the results may be sent to specified recipients. See Setting email notification options.
