Attaching a File to a Statement

You use the Attachments property in the Properties view to associate a file with the statement. For example, rather than including a lot of detail in a complex step, you can attach a Word file that describes the step. You then refer to the file in the step; for example, "For more detail, see the attached Word file."

To attach a file to a statement:
  1. In the Attachments property in the Properties view, click in the Value column and click ....

    Manual Tester displays the List of attachments dialog box.

  2. Click Add.

    Manual Tester displays the Open dialog box.

  3. Navigate to the file you want to attach to the statement and click Open.

    Manual Tester inserts the file name you selected in the list of attached files.

    To remove a file name from the list, select the name and click Remove.

    To open the file, select the name in the list and click Open.

  4. Click OK.

    Manual Tester closes the List of attachments dialog box and inserts the word (Files) in the Value column for the Attachments property to indicate that one or more files are attached to the statement.
