Use ActionMode Constraint

You can use the ActionMode Constraint if you know which elements uniquely identify a list item.

Set the ActionMode Constraint on specific list item elements to identify the respective list item. In this case, the combination of selected values should uniquely identify the list item.

To verify the values of all other list item elements which are not needed for the identification of the list item, use the ActionMode Verify. The search for these list item elements runs from top to bottom, based on the defined values for list elements.

To change the order of your Module Attributes in the respective Module or TestCase, right-click on the TestStep and select Allow reorder from the context menu.

Changes made to Modules affect all linked TestCases.

Example:

In the following example, you will identify a list item using the ActionMode Constraint.

In this example, the goal is to identify Jane Doe from New York City in a list of several customers.

We know that the following Module Attributes uniquely identify our list item:

  • firstname with the value Jane

  • lastname with the value Doe

ActionMode Constraint

The system searches for the unique customer with the firstname Jane and the lastname Doe.

Once the system has found Jane Doe, it verifies that city is New York City.
