How to modify ResultList array?

[VisualMath]

How to modify test result of a sequence step.  I am calling "SequenceCall" several times with unique parameters for each call.  I want to post the unique data to the report file.  I would like to do this in one place that the "SequenceCall" can be setup to process the ResultList each time it runs.  I have tried "SequenceFilePostResultsListEntry", but the ResultList array is not available at that point.  The data I would like to update can be seen in the ResultList array found in the process model during the call to TestReport.  I can also see this in the Result list after the "SequenceCall" , but can not find a Callback that will allow me to edit this data before the "SequenceCall"  is exited.  Any ideas on how to do this?  Also, please comment on possible test time implications.

Hi,

What is it that you want to change that you cannot do by passing the results from the SequenceCall or even in the SequenceFilePostResultListEntry callback?

I am trying to update Locals.ResultList[0].TS.StepName.  If I can not do this, the how do I add info to the results?

Hi,

In SequenceFilePostResultListEntry callback you can modify Paramaters.Result.TS.StepName. This is then passed back into Locals.ResultList and the change StepName will be seen in the Report.

eg

Parameters.Result.TS.StepName = Parameters.Result.TS.StepName + " " + Str(FileGlobals.count), FileGlobals.count++

Hope this helps

Parameters.Result.TS.StepName does not work.  This is the name of the step added to "SequenceFilePostResultsListEntry".

Hi,

Then I must be missing something from you original question because if I modifiy Parameters.Result.TS.StepName  in SequenceFilePostResultsListEntry then this modifies the ResultList.Result.TS.StepName in your SequenceCall and hence the StepName seen in the Report.

Can you supply a simply example highlighting what you are trying to achieve.

I hope we can resolve this for you.

Hi

There is an other solution you should try.

Just check the example

I have attached a sample sequence file.  What I would like to do is send the test description to the report file.  The goal is to do this without adding more sequence steps after the call to the sub sequence.  So in the sample "Call Testit in <Current File>" would be written to the report file.  If I were to add more Sequence calls, then their description would be reported as well (without any additional changes to the sequence).  Changes could be made in the process model or the Typesdefs.

Hi,

Attached is part of the report generated with the statement step unskipped and I see that the Step Description is changed for the SequenceCall Step as well as the step in the Sequence.

Hi,

Sorry about that, I forgot about the time limit after an edit of a message.

I guess this is not what you want to happen. To avoid this use a precondition of TypeOf(Parameters.Step)<>"SequenceCall". This should only change the Step in the SequenceCall and not the SequenceCall itself.
