Test Properties (Standalone)

Test Properties reflect the attributes of anything you select in the Project tab, and in some cases allows you to change these properties. For example, if you click a test node in the Project Files Pane, the Name and Path of the test will display as read-only, but other properties like Description, Owner, and Priority allow you to enter values directly.

Go the Project Tab, click on a test and the pane to the right will instantly show the details for this very test. Clicking All Test Properties button will show you all test properties or by pressing F4.

Execution

• BrowserType - sets the browser the test executes on. Overrides the Settings.DefaultBrowser.
• DisableDialogMonitoring - whether to disable dialog monitoring and handling.
• ReuseAppWindow - useful in data-driven execution to define the number of iterations to reuse the application window. By default ('0') keeps the same application open during the entire test run.
• SilverlightEnabled - whether to enable Silverlight automation for this test case.
• StopTestListOnFailure - gets or sets whether to stop test list execution if this test fails.
• WebKitExecutionDelay - explicit commands delay in milliseconds for the WebKit browsers (Safari & Chrome).

Misc

• CustomProperty - three user defined values. Any of these can be used as filtering criteria for Rules in Dynamic Test Lists.
• HasCodeBehind* - whether this test has code/script associated with it.
• IsManual - switch between manual and automated to designate whether to execute the test with the manual or automated test runner.
• QcFilePath - the file path for this test on the QC server, if project is connected to Quality Center.
• QcId - the ID provided to this test by the QC server, if project is connected to Quality Center.
• QcVersionStamp - the version of the QC server, if project is connected to Quality Center.

Data

• DataEnabled - whether data driven testing is enabled (if test is bound to a source).
• DataRange - defines a data range to execute within the data source set on a data driven test. Range is 1 based. Format: 'StartRow:EndRow' [i.e. '3:5'] or 'SingleRow' or ':3' (first three) or '3:' (three to end).
• DataType* - the data source type associated with this test.
• DefaultToGrid - when the BuiltInGrid is created in addition to an external data source, if set will default to the BuiltInGrid, else the external source.
• HasBuiltInGrid* - whether a BuiltInGrid is attached to this test.
• InheritParentDataSource - gets or sets whether this data-bound test will inherit the data source from its parent data-bound test.
• IsDataDriven* - whether the test is data driven.
• Source* - the data source bound to this test.

Attributes

• Description - description of this test.
• Name* - the name of this test. It can be used as filtering criteria for Rules in Dynamic Test Lists.
• Owner - this test's owner. It can be used as filtering criteria for Rules in Dynamic Test Lists.
• Path* - the test file path relative to the project. It can be used as filtering criteria for Rules in Dynamic Test Lists.
• Priority - the test's priority (default is 0) does not affect the order of test execution in a test list. It is only used as filtering criteria for Rules in Dynamic Test Lists.
• UniqueId - the test case unique identifier generated by Test Studio.

*Indicates field is read-only.

Name, Path, Owner, Priority, and CustomProperty can be used as filtering criteria for Rules in Dynamic Test Lists.
