Microsoft ACT & VB Script
|
|
|
| Hello,
I am learning Microsoft Application Center Test (ACT) to
do some automated testing. After I create a test,
1. I right click on the test name say "test1" and then
click on "properties". This opens up a pop-up wizard where
I can specify the number of simultaneous browser
connection, no. of users, duration etc. Say I need :
browser connection, no. of users, duration
10 10 2 hours
Then I save it and right click on the test name and click
on "Start Test". The test runs and produces the results.
The values entered for the browser connection, no. of
users, duration are stored automatically in an xml file
named "testProperties-test1.xml".
Now, If I want to change the no. users, I repeat step (1)
again. And the testProperties-test1.xml automatically
changes the values inside as per the wizard.
Rather, Is there a way that I can do it command line or
using the xml file created, I can change the properties of
user count, browser connections without having opening the
wizard? Or can it be done using VB Script? I tried
changing the values in the testProperties-test1.xml file,
saved it and started the test. XML file had the new change
but the results produced still had the previous values
that was in the wizard. Only if I change the values in the
wizard, the xml file changes to the new values. Is there a
way that this can be accomplished.
Thanks.

| I don't think you can do this. I am guessing the values from the XML file
get opened and read into memory when the project is opened in ACT. So your
changes to the file may not be valid until you re-open the project.
You can automate the process of running ACT tests manually . Look in the
help documentation by searching for the term "unattended script" without
the quotes. But you would still have to programatically make changes to
the XML file before loading the project.
Does this answer your question? Thank you for using Microsoft Newsgroups!
