Editing Reusable Statements
You can edit statements that you previously saved for reuse.
Manual Tester changes the reusable statements in all the test scripts
in which they appear. If you do not want Manual Tester to update all scripts,
you can remove the reference for specific scripts before editing the reusable
statements.
After you change the original version of the reusable statement,
Manual Tester automatically updates the statements in all the closed files.
You can selectively update the statements in any open files.
To edit
reusable statements:
- In the Reuse view, right-click the statements you want to edit
and select Open Script.
In the Text
Editor, Manual Tester displays the test script in which the statements were
originally authored and saved and highlights the statements.
Note: You
can also open the test script in which the statements were originally authored
by right-clicking on a reused statement in a script and clicking Open
Script or clicking on a reused statement and selecting Edit
> Open Script.
- Make any necessary edits and save the manual test script.
In all closed scripts, Manual Tester automatically updates the statements.
For
all open scripts, Manual Tester displays a message box for each file that
references the updated statements.
- To apply the change to the specific open script, click Yes.
To leave the open script unchanged, click
No.
Manual Tester does not update the script and displays a message box for the
next open file, if any.
Note: When you modify or delete saved statements, Manual
Tester does not update the Reuse view until you save the script in which the
statement was originally authored.
