The Manual Engine is used if it has been enabled in the Settings dialog (see setting "UseManualEngine").
Manual TestSteps and automated TestSteps, whose corresponding Module does not have any ObjectMaps or TestSteps, which do not have any references to a Module are executed with the Manual Engine after having enabled it. Any subsequent automated TestSteps will be automatically executed.
Steering via ScreenType and ControlType
The usage of the Tosca Manual Engine can be explicitly enforced on the Module and the control level by specifying the ScreenType and the ControlType (e.g. TypeInfoDescription). For this purpose, the ScreenType of a Module and the ControlType of each required ModuleAttribute must be set accordingly.
The following values must be specified on both the Module and the control level:
|
Parameter |
Value |
|---|---|
|
ScreenType |
Manual |
|
TypeInfoDescription |
ManualControl |
|
This functionality does not require to globally enable the Manual Engine via the setting UseManualEngine. |
The manual test execution is performed by using a checklist. The current TestStep is commonly used and processed. The Finish button is used to either open the next TestStep, to execute an automated TestStep or to finish the test execution. The navigation of the checklist is described in more detail in chapter "Execute manual tests".
