[Solved] How to call a step in test_A from test_B ?

[HoangPham]

Hi all,

I have some classes as below (see in Code Block), and my questions are:

1. How can i create some more test methods in the MainWindowUnitTest test class with there are only several (not all) CodedStep functions invoked in each test method ?

2. How can I create a new one more test methods in the MainWindowUnitTest test class with several functions in the MainWindow class and one (or more) functions created in the  LoginDashboard class ? ( ex: the new test method in MainWindowUnitTest class is MainWindow_TestMethod_2(), and functions invoked in this new method are: MainWindow_CodedStep, MainWindow_ManualFunction_01 , LoginDashboard_CodedStep1 and  LoginDashboard_ManualFunction1  )

namespace TestingOnDashboard_01
{
    public class MainWindow : BaseWebAiiTest
    {
        [CodedStep(@"Open 'ManagementCombobox' drop down.")]
        public void MainWindow_CodedStep()
        {
            // Open 'ManagementCombobox' drop down.
            Applications.HPhamDashboardWpfShellexe.HPham_Dashboard.ManagementCombobox.OpenDropDown(true);
        }

        [CodedStep(@"Wait for Exists 'btn_LogOutDashboard'")]
        public void MainWindow_CodedStep1()
        {
            // Wait for Exists 'btn_LogOutDashboard'
            Applications.HPhamDashboardWpfShellexe.HPham_Dashboard.btn_LogOutDashboard.Wait.ForExists(30000);
        }

        public bool MainWindow_ManualFunction_01()
        {
            ...
        }

        public int MainWindow_ManualFunction_02()
        {
            ...
        }
    }
}
----------
namespace TestingOnDashboard_01
{
    [TestClass]
    public class MainWindowUnitTest : BaseWpfTest
    {
        [TestMethod()]
        public void MainWindow()
        {

        }
    }
}
------------------------------------------
namespace TestingOnDashboard_01
{
    public class LoginDashboard : BaseWebAiiTest
    {
        [CodedStep(@"LeftClick on Item0Textboxview")]
        public void LoginDashboard_CodedStep()
        {
            // LeftClick on Item0Textboxview
            Applications.HPhamDashboardWpfShellexe.EmptyTitleWindow.Item0Textboxview.User.Click(ArtOfTest.WebAii.Core.MouseClickType.LeftClick, 35, 27, ArtOfTest.Common.OffsetReference.TopLeftCorner, ArtOfTest.Common.ActionPointUnitType.Percentage, ((System.Windows.Forms.Keys)(0)));
        }

        [CodedStep(@"Type 'hpham' into UserNameTextBoxTextbox")]
        public void LoginDashboard_CodedStep1()
        {
            // Type 'hpham' into UserNameTextBoxTextbox
            Applications.HPhamDashboardWpfShellexe.EmptyTitleWindow.UserNameTextBoxTextbox.SetText(true, "hpham", 10, 100, false);
        }

        public bool LoginDashboard_ManualFunction1()
        {
            ....
        }
    }
}
------------
namespace TestingOnDashboard_01
{
    [TestClass]
    public class LoginDashboardUnitTest : BaseWpfTest
    {
        [TestMethod()]
        public void LoginDashboard()
        {
        }
    }
}

Thanks & Best regards,

Hi Hoang,

Thank you for contacting us.

Unfortunately I am not sure if I understand you correctly. 

Regarding the first question:

You can create more test methods by copying the already existing test method:   

[CodedStep(@"Wait for Exists 'btn_LogOutDashboard'")]
        public void NewMethod()
        {
           
        }

You just need to change the name.

Regarding the second question:

Do you want to access a test method from a different class?

There are two options how to achieve this:

1. You should create an instance of the other class and then via this instance you can access the methods in it:

WebTest1 firstTest = new WebTest1();
firstTest.WebTest1_CodedStep();

2. If you would like to create global variables or functions in Test Studio Standalone version that are accessible from all the tests within the test project, you can create a utility class. This class will contain the intended functions or variables.

Let me know if I am missing something.
