Customizing User Data
Multi-column data files
10 Click Finish to modify the BDL form declaration of your test script so
that it uses the random variable for the given form field in place of the
recorded value. The new random variable function appears below in
BDL view.
11 Initiate a TryScript run with the random variable function in your test
script to confirm that the script runs without error.
Parameterization from multi-column data files is a powerful means of
parameterizing data because it defines files in which specific combinations of
string values are stored (e.g., usernames/passwords, first names/last names, etc).
Each column in a data file corresponds to a specific parameter. Multi-column
data files enable a data driven test model and allow you to cover all user data
input with a single data file.
Note See SilkPerformer documentation for more information
regarding multi-column data files.
Customizing mouse
events
The behavior of recorded mouse events can be visually customized.
Procedure To customize replay of a recorded mouse event:
1 In the tree view, select a CitrixMouseClick node that includes mouse
activity. Red diamonds indicate mouse-click start points. Red crossmarks
indicate mouse-release points. A red line between a start and end
point indicates the path of the mouse. Onscreen tooltips offer additional
information (right-click, left-click, double-click, etc).
