Pipeline parameters
Pipeline parameters refer to Pipelines that are used for some LiveCompare actions. For example, the Search Test Repository action has a Pipeline parameter, which refers to the Pipeline whose Test Repositories are to be searched.
To set the value of a Pipeline parameter, open the Property Editor and click the field to the right of the parameter's ‘Pipeline’ action property. The Pipeline dialog is displayed in the lower portion of the Workflow Editor, showing the name of the parameter node being edited. Note that the workflow diagram may not be edited while this dialog is displayed.
This dialog lists Pipelines from the Administration/Pipelines folder in the LiveCompare hierarchy. Click ‘Refresh’ if necessary to update the display.
Select a Pipeline. The dialog’s ‘Details:’ section is filled in as follows:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Description | The description for the Pipeline. |
| Analysis System | The Pipeline’s Analysis System. |
| Comparison System | The Pipeline’s Comparison System. |
| Usage System | The Pipeline’s Usage System. |
| Most-at-risk Search Test Repositories | The Pipeline’s Most-at-risk Search Test Repositories. Each Test Repository is listed once only, along with its associated search paths. |
| Most-at-risk Gaps Test Repository | The Pipeline’s Most-at-risk Gaps Test Repository, including the Test Repository's Requirements Path. |
| Most-at-risk Execution Hits Test Repositories | The Pipeline’s Most-at-risk Hits Execution Test Repositories, including their associated test execution names, paths in which test executions are to be created, paths of execution lists to be reused, and execution options. |
Click ‘Save’ to confirm your selection, alternatively double-click the required Pipeline. The name of the selected Pipeline is displayed above the parameter node.
