To edit keywords and keyword expressions in
the template, perform the following steps:
Click the Expression button to display a list of expressions that can be constructed. From the list, choose the type of expression that you are building.
Click the Insert Keyword button to display the list of keywords provided by the test suite for use in filtering tests (this is only available if the test suite has information). From the list, choose the keywords used in the expression.
Click the Insert Operator button to display a list of operators that
you can use to construct boolean expressions in the text field. From
the list, choose the operator used in the expression.
See Keyword Expressions for descriptions and examples of keyword expressions
that can be constructed.
Change additional template settings or click the Done button to save the changes in the template.
The following table provides descriptions and examples of keyword expressions that can be constructed.
Expression | Description |
---|---|
Any Of |
Runs all tests in the test suite having any of the keywords entered in the text field.
Example:
A test suite uses the keyword
To execute only the tests containing the |
All Of |
Runs all tests in the test suite having all of the keywords entered in the text field.
Example:
To execute only the tests containing both the |
Expression |
Runs all tests in the test suite having the expression entered in the text field.
Use the Insert Keyword and the Insert Operator buttons to construct a Boolean expression in the text field. Keywords stand as Boolean predicates that are true if, and only if, the keyword is present in the test being considered. A test is accepted if the overall value of the expression is true. All other tests are rejected by the restriction. Example:
A test suite uses the keyword
To execute only the tests with the |
Logical operators are only available when Expression is selected in the list of expressions. The following table provides descriptions and examples of logical operators that can be used to build keyword expressions. The precedence column indicates the order in which the expression is resolved. Expressions in parentheses are evaluated first, with nested parentheses being evaluated from the innermost parentheses outward.
Logical Operator | Precedence | Description |
---|---|---|
( ) group | 1 | Used to create groups of expressions. Example:
The harness will exclude tests that include both keywords. |
! not | 2 | Logical not. Used to exclude tests containing the expression. Example:
The harness will exclude tests that include either keyword. |
& and | 3 | Logical and. Used to combine expressions. Example:
The harness will only choose tests that include both keywords. |
| or | 4 | Logical or. Used to specify either of two expressions.
Example:
The harness will only choose tests that include either keyword. |
