Working With Execution Templates

To run a test case inside an execution template at runtime, you need to follow these procedures:

1. Create execution template
2. Add test case to execution template

5. Click Save when your execution template is done.

Add test case to execution template

To run or debug a test case with an execution template, you need to add it to an execution template (Set Execution Template). Alternatively, you can set an execution template for a newly created test case.

1. Open your test case in Studio. If you do not have one yet, you can create a test case.
2. In the Projects panel, right-click a test case to open the dropdown menu.
3. Click Set Execution Template and select a template from the dropdown list.

4. Click Ok to confirm. The execution template is added to the test case. Running or debugging this test case will proceed according to your associated execution template.

   
   

   

   
   

Now you can run or debug the test case as it will be executed with the execution template.

Important: The placeholder activity needs to be included in the execution template. It will not work if it is in a different workflow that is invoked by the execution template.

Tip:

• Add test data to your test case
• Publish test case to Orchestrator

Remove execution template from test case
